Babylon 5/Recap/S04/E21 Rising Star

"Well, Captain, you caused quite a stir. Half of Earth Force wants to give you a kiss on the cheek and the medal of honor. The other half wants you taken out and shot. As a politician you learn how to compromise. Which by all right means I should give you the medal of honor then have you shot."

- President Susanna Luchenko

This episode contains examples of:

 * All Love Is Unrequited: The Trope Namer episdode, as Ivanova laments Marcus saving her life by sacrificing his.
 * Bear Hug: Sheridan gives his dad one of the biggest you'll ever see.
 * Covert Pervert: G'Kar uses his artificial eye to spy on Sheridan and Delenn's wedding night.
 * Morton's Fork: President Luchenko tells Sheridan to either resign from Earth Force, and be granted amnesty, along with the officers who followed him, or he and they will be court martialed and brought to trial.
 * Not with Them for the Money: Michael and Lise. He's been in love with her for years. The fact that she now has her late husband's fortune is just a bonus.
 * Our Presidents Are Different: Susanna Luchenko seems to be the President Personable variety (though considering her immediate predecessor, that wouldn't take much) with hints of Scheming and Iron.
 * Wartime Wedding: Well, not quite, but it took place immediately after the war ended.
