Read JMS’ comments and more at The Lurker’s Guide to Babylon 5. There is also some bonus commentary by Peter David, who wrote the episode.
This was a fun episode, I thought. I adored Timov and the wives all together were a hoot. According to David, Daggair was Pestilence. Timov was Famine. Mariel was Death.

They all come to B5 for Londo to divorce them. The emperor granted him this on the 30th anniversary of ascension with the caveat that he keep one of the three.
Talia’s ex-husband also comes aboard – Matt Stoner, who may or may not be still working for Psi Corps. He is selling artifacts and promising Talia he can fix her and become a non telepath like he says he is. Garibaldi ain’t buying it at all when he sees him manipulating people’s minds. He goes after Stoner.
There is a party to celebrate and Mariel gives Londo a statue she got from Stoner and it shot poison darts into Londo (and Timov secretly saved him). G’kar shows up with his boots on (an insult) and is ignored and after we see him and Mariel in his quarters discussing what happened to Londo and who is responsible.
Then there is Delenn and her hair!

Quote:
"The secret of our marriage's success is our lack of communication, Londo. You have jeopardized that success and I would know why!"
– Timov
1. Who, in your opinion, is responsible for the attempt of Londo’s life? Mariel? Psi Corps? G’kar?
2. It occurred to me that since Delenn is mostly human now, wouldn’t she be pretty rough looking if all she’d done was use something that made her skin come off? She seems to be mostly human now…
3. Was Stoner an agent of Psi Corps?
4. Why did he come to take Talia away?
