Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What is the nickname for Grey Sector?

Answer: the Triangle

Garibaldi and Sheridan discuss Grey Sector (which was later home to the Zarg). Garibaldi: "At least you don't have to spend your day in the Triangle." Sheridan: "Triangle?" Garibaldi: "Grey sector. Ever since B5 went online, there've been all kind of stories about the place. Strange lights, weird noises, people vanishing. Maintenance nicknamed it the B5 Triangle. Now they swear that something's making their scanners go haywire." Sheridan: "Anything to the stories?" Garibaldi: "Nah, every station has its phantoms."
2. What kind of personality does Londo think that Vir has?

Answer: negative

Londo and Vir are in Londo's quarters, where Londo is reminiscing about his youth. Vir: "Every generation of Centauri mourns for the golden days when their power was like unto the gods. It's counterproductive. I mean, why make history if you fail to learn by it?" Londo: "You know, Vir, you have what the earthers call a negative personality." Vir: "No, I don't." Londo: "There. You see?"
3. What is the name of Londo's friend that comes to visit in this episode?

Answer: Urza Jaddo

Urza has come to Babylon 5 to seek a way of holding on to whatever honor his family has left. He wants Londo's help, but soon realize that they are on two different sides of the power struggle within the government. Londo: "Centauri have bowed to the whims of other races for too long. Now we will show the galaxy our true spirit, beginning with those...those thrice-damned Narn." Urza: "Emperor Turhan, may the gods comfort him, never wanted another war with the Narn." Londo: "The emperor was a good man, but he was wrong about the Narn. War with them was inevitable.

They have given us little choice in the matter." Urza: "The Narn did not start this conflict. They were forced into it by a faction within our own midst, the same faction who murdered Prime Minister Malachi and put that infantile puppet Cartagia on the throne!"
4. Finish the quote: "Do you always _______ when things are going well?"

Answer: worry

This is from a conversation between Ivanova and Sheridan in C&C. Sheridan: "Commander, everything in order?" Ivanova: "Remarkably so. It is beginning to worry me." Sheridan: "Do you always worry when things are going well?" Ivanova: "I don't have time to worry about them when they are not."
5. Who said the following quote: "Knowledge is a basic tool of politics. Mine is considerable."

Answer: Londo's friend

6. What is the name of the sword with which the Centauri fight the Morago?

Answer: Kutari

Londo describes to Vir the reason that he and Urza had to fight the Morago. Vir: "Londo...You had no choice. He would've killed you." Londo: "He could've killed me any time. He was right, you know. I never could best him with a kutari. But my death would not have saved his family." Vir: "I don't understand." Londo: "By the laws of the morago, the victor must accept the loser's family as part of his own.

They're House Mollari now. They cannot be harmed by the resolution passed against Urza. He sacrificed himself. I have made many choices lately, Vir. And today, for the first time...I'm not sure those choices were right." -- We see Urza's children in the movie "In the Beginning."
7. What is Sheridan doing at the beginning of this episode?

Answer: playing baseball

In a later epoisode, a bear was designed which was supposed to be Sheridan - it was wearing a baseball jersey.
8. Who said the following quote: "Oh, that's cute. A zombie with a gas attack."

The Markab would later almost become extinct in "Confessions and Lamentations."
10. Finish the quote: "I once saw a whole chorus line of ______ ______ doing show tunes in my bathtub. 'Course, I was pretty drunk at the time."

Answer: purple wombats
