Recap and Discussion: 3 X 11 Ceremonies of Light and Dark

[vjs2259.livejournal.com]

It's the Party Episode! Everyone loves a party, but mostly it's Delenn who wants to throw one. She calls her party a 'ceremony' and a 'ritual' but whatever. And, sadly, no one wants to come.

All kidding aside, I found re-watching this episode profoundly thought-provoking with both personal and political ramifications still to be digested. Worth the effort, even with the distraction of realizing this is an episode primarily about Marcus and his back-story. It sets up Marcus' fate, and Lennier's. They really are mirror images in many ways.

Apparently it's not just the episode where John admits his fe-e-elings. Who knew?
