Any Galen episode tends to get a bit preachy, I suppose but still this one was pretty good. With all the unanswered questions in this episode, it makes me wish we at least knew how the rest of the five year arc would have played out.

The fen thing was so silly but sometimes, I thought the silly was part Crusade's charm. They were sort of B5's kid brother, more or less.

Max was the poster child for IPX and we get hints all through B5 that IPX was certainly a LOT more than just a bunch of greedy treasure hunters. If the hints in B5 meant anything, then IPX at least worked with some of the darker elements of Earthgov.

Let's say, the treasures they are hunting are on a strategic scale ;-)
It makes me wonder about Anna Sheridan, though - did she just get drawn into it or...
