I tried to keep track of all the plotlines/plot points that were introduced in this episode:

Santiago/his VP with many chins who is not to be trusted
Ivanova's history with PsiCorps
PsiCorps' history and reputation
the Narns' involement in the Earth-Minbari War
Sinclair's unusual attitude towards the Minbari
Minbari honor
Garibaldi's facility with computers
Ivanova and Talia
Londo's foretold death and G'Kar's involvement in it
Twenty years from now important things will happen
Centauri prescient dreams
the Narns want war, Londo is prepared to oblige
the Minbari take the long view of events
Sinclair is clever, and EarthGov is cautious, and needs to be circumvented

I'm forgetting some, but I am amazed at how much is packed in here.

Yeah, Babylon 5 is really a very dense show. It's amazing how much you notice once you know what's coming.
