Babylon 5/Recap/S03/E03 A Day in the Strife

A Day in the Strife

Ivanova: If I live through this job without completely losing my mind, it will be a miracle of biblical proportions.
Lt. Corwin: Well, there goes my faith in the Almighty.

This episode contains examples of:

• Badass Boast: Ta'Lon has a great one:

Sheridan: I don't know what my superiors would say if I starting showing up everywhere with a Narn bodyguard.
Ta'Lon: They would say "Here is a man who will live to be a hundred and fifty."

• Call Back: Ta'Lon is the Narn Sheridan encountered aboard the Streib ship.
• Deadpan Snarker: See above quote by Corwin.
• Pet the Dog: Londo's desire to send Vir away - despite his claims, he really is doing it keep Vir safe.
• Turncoat: Na'Far, a Narn who has been appointed to take G'Kar's place by the Centauri. He doesn't really count as The Quisling, mind - he seems motivated only by a desire to keep the Narns alive through the occupation. He still comes into conflict with the Narn on Babylon Five, of course.
