    Excellent

    One significant component detracted from this episode such that I could not give it a ten, and that is the performance of Anna (Sheridan's ex-wife). This combined with the elder on Z'ha'dum left a bit of rushed feeling. Other than that, terrific episode with a great score to accompany the ending. Looking forward to next season!

    • Trivia
      John and Anna Sheridan's wedding photo is an actual shot from Bruce Boxleitner and Melissa Gilbert's nuptials.
    • Goofs
      The video seen in the flashback is not the same as what Capt. Sheridan saw originally. This is due to the casting change from Beth Toussaint to Melissa Gilbert.
    • Quotes

      [last lines]

      Citizen G'Kar: G'Quan wrote, "There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain."
