- Quotes
Ambassador Londo Mollari: My shoes are too tight.
Vir Cotto: Excuse me?
Ambassador Londo Mollari: Something my father said. He was old, very old at the time. I went into his room, and he was sitting alone in the dark crying. So, I asked him what was wrong, and he said, "My shoes are too tight. But, it doesn't matter, because I have forgotten how to dance." I never understood what that meant until now. My shoes are too tight. And, I have forgotten how to dance.
Vir Cotto: I don't understand.
Ambassador Londo Mollari: Nor should you.
- ConnectionsReferences Babylon 5: Babylon 5: The Gathering (1993)
As far as this episode just being a 'filler' there is nothing wrong with that. JMS knew he had 5 years to set up and carry out his plot arch and in season 1. This episode, like many this season, Shows you more things about all the primaries, introduces a few of the other aliens and gives insight on what is happening on Earth, a place we never get to see.
This is also a very important episode to show you just how Good of a person Vir is, how Lando has a sense of justice, and how G'kar is always willing to fight against percieved injustice. This was a very important episode in spite of the fact it may not seem to be.
