I really, really like the intelligence guy. And I wonder if his timing here is on purpose:

Ohhhh, that's an intriguing thought, and I can see that. After all, Intelligence Guy is not suicidal and presumably wants both the planet and himself to survive once the Vorlons show up, so yes, giving Londo additional motivation is in his best interest.

Morden's reaction: given that the Shadows were able to heal him from the effects of a nuclear blast, I always wondered whether this involved some kind of life source sharing, a variation of what Lorien does with Sheridan, though it would be more like the Shadows to simply use up a few unfortunate minions instead of themselves. Still, if the Shadows transfered healing energy into Morden's body, it might have left a physical sense of connection. However, that's really not necessary to explain his reaction, imo. Until this point, Morden's self assurance, even when Sheridan had him interrogated and locked up, was always bolstered by the fact these superbeings more powerful than anyone else were right next to him. The moment Londo has the Shadows with Morden killed and presses the button, Morden is alone and without back-up for the first time since the Icarus came to Z'ha'dum.
