* BatmanGambit: Sheridan's whole scheme to get the League of Non-Aligned Worlds to allow the ''White Stars'' into their territory. Getting the League to do what he needs them to do by asking them to agree and co-operate is like herding cats, but Sheridan realises the one thing that always always gets them to play ball is an impending threat to their safety. Since no such threat exists, Sheridan figures out how to get the League's natural paranoia to make one up.

In the med bay, Delenn comes and asks what happened. With a pointed look at the ringleaders, Lennier explains that he found a leak in the fuel system and repaired it before it could cause harm to anyone else. When she asks if it was possibly sabotage from the Warrior Caste, he says they were most definately not involved. Delenn accepts his explanation, and instructs them to see that he is comfortable. After she leaves, the others gather around him to ask why. He says that Delenn lives in a world where people are better than they are, and telling her the truth would shatter her hope in people. He intends to let nothing threaten her view.

* LaughingMad: Sheridan at the beginning. This is actually based on an incident during a lunch break on the show, where JMS himself suddenly burst out laughing out of nowhere due to how loopy writing the entire show for two years had made him.
