Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: A metal tool that can be used as a weapon

After walking out to the man Sheridan puts his gun in the mans pocket and takes the tool daring him to shoot. When he gets done, Ivanova asks him if he's crazy. Then Sheridan shows her the charge cap for the gun - showing her that is really wasn't armed.

2. Which character seen once previously returns in this episode to become a recurring character?

Answer: Ta'Lon

Vir is almost always there and has been so since the begining. N'Far is only in this one episode. Neroon is a recurring character but he is not in this episode. Ta'Lon was first seen in "All Alone In The Night" when Sheridan saves him from the Stribes.

3. Londo Mollari asks a favor of Delenn. What is it?

Answer: make Vir the Centauri ambassador to Minbar

Vir becomes Centauri ambassador to Minbar, but he abuses his post. We find out how in the episode "Sic Transit Vir".

4. G'Kar is no longer Narn ambassador, he is now merely a citizen. Being a former member of the Kha'Ri, the Centauri want him back. What is the threat they use to get G'Kar to return to Narn?

Answer: To harass those who have family still on B5

The Narn on B5 refuse to let G'Kar leave and he cements his leadership among the remaining Narn. Na'Far returns to Narn but Ta'Lon, who was his bodyguard, stays to help G'Kar.

5. Garibaldi invites Franklin over to his place for dinner. Why?

Answer: To ask Franklin about stims

JMS uses both Franklin and Garibaldi to explore the concept of addiction. Franklin becomes addicted to stims in season 3 and Garibaldi crawls back into the bottle in season 5.

Answer: "I swear, if we live through this someone is going to find their automatic shower preferences programmed for ice water."

All three of the incorrect answers here are court martial offences! Reprogramming your Ccaptain's shower preferences is not.

Answer: Create a large nuclear blast that would destroy the station

I always wondered how anyone would believe that. Why would an advanced race promise knowledge to one who was already fairly advanced? I guess the best answer is that it's television! Sheridan thought the same and saved the station in the end.

8. Just as they are ready to transmit the answers to the probe, Sheridan decides not to send the answers believing the probe to be a berserker. What happens when they don't transmit the answers?

Answer: The probe flies away

The probe flying away proves it to be a berserker. It didn't blow up B5, but what about the next person it encounters? Sheridan couldn't let it just leave.

9. What happens when they actually send the answers to the probe?

Answer: It explodes

Sheridan replies to the explosion with dismay because he then has to return to his meeting with the dockworkers guild.

10. Ivanova, while in C & C, says that it would be a "miracle of Biblical proportions" if she survives her job. What is the response of Tech 1?

Answer: "There goes my faith in the Almighty."

One of those great comic moments Joe has inserted throughout the series. Ivanova, being a Russian Jew, does believe in God. Tech 1 turns into a fairly important character, Lt. David Corwin.
