Londo Mollari: G'Kar, the artificial eye that Dr. Franklin gave you? Where is it?
(G'Kar just gives Londo a wicked smile as the camera zooms in on his missing eye before cutting to the prosthectic eye in Sheridan and Delenn's bedroom) (edit) President Luchenko: Only a sane and careful study of the facts will allow us to separate those who were willing partners in President Clark's reign of terror from those who co-operated only in fear of their lives. (edit) Delenn: It was the end of the Earth year 2261 and it was the dawn of a new age for all of us. It was the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. The next twenty years would see great changes, great joy and great sorrow. The telepath war. The Drakh war. The New Alliance would waver and crack, but in the end it will hold, because what is built endures, and what is loved endures. And Babylon 5, ... Babylon 5 endures. (edit) Londo: And stop eating that. We don't even know what it is.
G'Kar: Something called "rice."
Londo: Yes, and if it were any good, do you think they would be standing there throwing it at people? As marriage ceremonies go, the humans are very strange indeed. Still, they're quite a couple, aren't they?
G'Kar: Yes, they are. (edit) Garibaldi: [to Lise] Don't. Don't do that, no, come on. The sun's almost coming up. I've got to get some sleep ... eventually. (edit)

During the speech of President Luchenko, they briefly cut over to Sheridan. Sitting on his right side is General Foote, but on his left side is... President Luchenko! Unless she has a double twin or can be in two places at the same time, that's not possible.
(edit)
President Luchenko: ...the better angels of our nature...
This line is a reference to the final line of Abraham Lincoln's first inaugural address. In that address he urges the United States to not go to civil war. (edit)
