Things start to unfold!
17 July 2022
Warning: Spoilers
We return to the unfolding saga of the telepaths in what is a pretty good episode that has multiple interesting plot points.

The personal highlight of this episode is the Centauri plot. There is a real sense of mystery here as, finally, foreshadowing is occurring and plot threads are being woven into the tapestry. We return to Centauri Prime, where the dying Regent has seemingly gone mad, asking someone to kill him because he was "not himself." it is obvious that the organism found on himself and Captain Jack in Season 4's Racing Mars is exerting influence over him, and that he is in league with the shadows. Londo is almost assassinated by a knife, which is held back and backfired at the thrower, who was a Centauri nobleman plotting against him. We see what is most certainly a Drakh, standing in the dark. Things are indeed getting interesting.

In all, a good episode in which many intriguing mysteries are laid.
