The sense of menace from the threatening Centauri cruiser, the bold play to enable the narn vessel to use the jumpgate, the crewman saying "they are targetting the narn cruiser... our fighters..." Bing Bing Bing "...and US". It ratchets up a notch more, is it going to go OK... then the energy spike and all hell breaks loose. The fact that the B5 weapon systems were seriously upgraded during GROPOS makes itself felt. Sheriden practicing his apologyThe Centauri attempt on his life- the whole thing just came across perfectly.The other episode that I found completely striking was "Confessions and Lamentations". How many times in sci-fi has the doctor struggled against the disease and come up with the cure just in time? This was the first time I'd ever seen the doctor find the cure... and it *wasn't* in time. Too late. A race dead. Wow.Would you believe me if I said that series 3 ratchets things up a notch again, and series 4 yet another notch?You've got good times coming!</blockquote>
