Notes

add »
There is a visual pun after Zack comments to the staff that he wants to leave because the next person through customs might be the Second Coming. The next three people are Elvis impersonators: three Kings. The first impersonator is Babylon 5's Art Director, Mark-Louis Walters. (edit)
In the first broadcast of this episode in the United States, the third-season theme was played over the closing credits. (edit)

Quotes

add »
Bester: The Corps is Mother, the Corps is Father.
Lyta: In that case, Mr. Bester, I'm an orphan. (edit)
Sheridan: Captain's personal log: The Shadow War is over. We won. But I can't stop thinking about what it cost us and how much work is still ahead of us. Then again, maybe the Doc's right. Embrace the moment. In the end, it's all we have. Trouble will come in its own time. It always does. But that's tomorrow. Give me today and I will be happy. (edit)
Regent: Dream! That's all. Just a bad dream. (edit)
Sheridan: The war's over, we won. We should get a few days off before the next big crisis. It never seems to work out that way.
Delenn: No. And you wouldn't have it any other way.
Sheridan: I beg your pardon?
Delenn: You are a problem solver. You are one of these people who'll pick up a rope that's got all tangled up and spend an entire day untangling it. Because it's a challenge, because it defies your sense of order in the universe, and because you can. Sometimes I try to picture you sitting on a beach with absolutely nothing to do.
Sheridan: And?
Delenn: And, the picture always ends with your head imploding. (edit)
Garibaldi: The way I figure it, we are all entitled to one really big, incredibly stupid screw-up in our lives. Maybe this is one of those, we'll see. (edit)
