Rumors, Bargains and LiesEpisode Number: 79 Season Num: 4 First Aired: Thursday May 15, 1997 Prod Code: 413 |
Sheridan hatches an eccentric plan to convince the League to accept White Star patrols on their borders, while Delenn seeks help from Neroon to end the civil war that has broken out on Minbar.
| Writer: | J. Michael Straczynski |
| Director: | Mike Vejar |
| Star: | Claudia Christian (Susan Ivanova), Stephen Furst (Vir Cotto), Bruce Boxleitner (John Sheridan), Richard Biggs (Dr. Stephen Franklin), Bill Mumy (Lennier), Peter Jurasik (Londo Mollari), Andreas Katsulas (G'Kar), Patricia Tallman (Lyta Alexander), Mira Furlan (Delenn), Jerry Doyle (Michael Garibaldi), Jeff Conaway (Zack Allan), Jason Carter (Marcus Cole) |
| Recurring Role: | Ron Campbell (Drazi Ambassador), Jonathan Chapman (Brakiri Ambassador), John Vickery (Neroon) |
| Guest Star: | Chard Hayward (Religious #2), Guy Siner (Religious #1) |
The music used when Delenn meets the warrior caste bears a striking similarity to the music used in "Dance with Wolves" during the early civil war confrontation.
(edit)
Ivanova tells Sheridan that Marcus is waiting for him on channel 4. This is a reference to the television network in the UK that shows Babylon 5.
(edit)
This is the second time Lennier is near death. The first time is in "Convictions" where he risks his life to save Londo.
(edit)
Delenn: Lennier, this is the second time I have seen you near death. You're starting to acquire bad habits.
(edit)
Brakiri Ambassador: Invisible enemies. Strange thing happening in Sector 83. They could be anywhere. They could be all around us
(edit)
Lennier: If I had told her the whole truth, it would've destroyed her belief in the strength and the wisdom of our caste. Delenn does not walk in the same world you and I walk in. She does not see the same world you and I see. In her world we are better than we are, we care more than we care. We act towards each other with compassion. I much prefer her world to that of my own, and I will not allow anything to threaten that.
(edit)
Neroon: I assumed your behavior was prompted by a sense of your own superiority, your ego, .. the usual fanaticism we have come to expect from the religious caste. In the last year, I've begun to realize that I was wrong. Dukhat chose you above all to follow him. Slowly, dimly, I begin to understand why. I do not know what lays ahead of us, Delenn, but I do know it is right that we are here together.
Delenn: Is that a compliment, Neroon?
Neroon: After a fashion. (edit) Delenn: I have been training him, as Dukhat trained me. He has been .. a light for my footsteps. Never asking, only giving. Without him, I would stumble and fall and never get up again. Thank you for looking after him, Neroon. (edit)

Continuity: In the opening scene a piece of food appears on Marcus's fork. The camera then shifts to Sheridan and then back to Marcus who hasn't picked up the food yet.
