In a conference room, Endawi shows the footage from Keffer's fighter of the mysterious ship. He asks Delenn if she knows what it is, but she replies she can't help him, she's never seen one before. Endawi is disappointed, but not surprised. He'll be asking all the other ambassadors as well, and he hopes he'll have better luck. After he leaves, Sheridan talks to Delenn, and confirms his suspicion that this is in fact one of the Shadows' ships. She apologizes for not telling him, but they need to keep the Shadow's in a false sense of security.

She was scared, not "turned on", because they were about to do something very dangerous in order to escape something even more dangerous.


* GeekyTurnOn: When Sheridan explains his tactics involving the Markab jumpgate, you can see Delenn getting hotter.
--> '''Sheridan''' (matter-of-fact): Are you ready?
--> '''Delenn''' (in a husky voice): No, but you may proceed anyway...

** When Delenn is in a near panic and insisting they cannot possibly take on an invincible Shadow warship alone, Sheridan reminds her [[Film/BabylonFiveInTheBeginning that this isn't the first time he's been in such a situation]] - and he goes 2-0 this episode

* UngratefulBastard: The Shadows would have every reason to think this of Londo. As he has gleefully accepted their offers of help that have been largely responsible from turning him from a running joke into someone with genuine power and authority at the highest level of the Centauri. And now that *he* has what he wanted? He tells Moron straight up that he wants them to go away and never be seen again. Mordon of course simply smiles ... and casually drops the fact that Lord Refa is delighted to engage them for his own purposes, making it clear Morons 'associates' are not simply going to fade away because Londo desired it to be so.

* UnfortunateImplications: In-universe with the name of the "Bonehead Maneuver", which is name-dropped on board a ship full of ''Minbari''. Ivanova immediately realizes this, and apologizes. Thankfully, most of the Minbari there don't understand what she said, and the rest are forgiving. It wasn't named so because Minbari have bones on their heads, but because it's an '''[[TooDumbToLive absolutely stupid]]''' thing to attempt (though several [=EarthForce=] personnel likely appreciated the pun).
