Lochley and Byron and Bester! Oh my!
Delenn and Lochley have a little chat, Byron is strange and Lyta gets drawn in, Michael is nosy and then he gets punched. Bester comes for the rogues and Lochley outsmarts him. There is an attempt on Londo’s life so Delenn asks G’kar to be his bodyguard. G’kar gleefully agrees. They leave for Centauri Prime.
Oh yeah, Lochley was once married to John.
That about covers it.
Oh and JMS wrote the silly song at the end.
This episode was mostly forgettable, as was most of Season 5 for me, due to Byron. It did have some important points – John wanted Lochley as head of B5 because he trusted her since he knew her very, very well. This is where Londo gets G’kar as a bodyguard, which is VERY important to the future. And Lyta seemingly joins Byron’s group.

1. Why was G’kar so happy to take the job as bodyguard?
2. Couldn’t Byron’s teeps tell with all their mind powers that Stephen would not hurt them? Seems pretty odd how limited they are when they want to appear as pitiful victims and how strong they are when they want to be
3. Wouldn’t it be easy to find out that Lochley was the former Mrs. to Sheridan? Wouldn’t her file have that info?
4. Do you think Lyta has any clue how strong she is?
