Agreed; the Neroon/Marcus plot is pretty much the only thing that makes Gray 17 worth watching.
Even JMS went public after that episode aired and said the following: "The Jeremiah thread was one of those things that looks great on paper, but when you get it into a camera...I dunno, it's one of those weirdnesses that happens in television. Sometimes you've got what you think is an average script and it just roars to life on-camera, and something that looks great on paper, but in real life...ehh...I'm happy with all the other stuff in the episode, but the Jeremiah thread didn't come off as it should've."
