In the scene where the Cortez has an accident, the producers wanted a few sparks and a bit of smoke. The director apparently had other ideas.
(edit)
Sheridan: Ever had a long talk with ambassador Delenn, Commander?
Ivanova: Yes, from time to time. Why?
Sheridan: She and the universe .. seem to have a special relationship.
Ivanova: Don't we all? (edit) Delenn: Then I will tell you a great secret, Captain. Perhaps the greatest of all time. The molecules of your body are the same molecules that make up this station and the nebula outside, that burn inside the stars themselves. We are starstuff, we are the universe made manifest, trying to figure itself out. As we have both learned, sometimes the universe requires a change of perspective. (edit) Delenn: Universe puts us in places where we can learn. They are never easy places, but they are right. Wherever we are, it's the right place .. and the right time. Pain that sometimes comes is part of the process of constantly being born. (edit) Sheridan: An old friend of mine once quoted me an ancient Egyptian blessing: 'God be between you and harm in all the empty places where you must walk.' (edit) Delenn: I am more 'one of us' at this moment than I have ever been. More than you will ever know (edit)
