  • Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": The leader of the Resistance is known only as Number One.
  • Good Old Fisticuffs: Garibaldi knocks Sheridan to the floor with one punch. Sheridan calls off security before they can do anything, saying he'll let Garibaldi have that one because of everything they've been through.

  • Interspecies Romance: Sheridan and Delenn take another step in their relationship... one that Sheridan evidently enjoys. While members of her caste observe in the other room and pray for a good night.
