Does anyone know, if Talia is ever using her gift in any way, before she is uncovered to be control? If not, I'll skip the coin scene...

Only in A Race Through Dark Places... she use telekinesis to send a coin flying in to the wall in her quarters, and when the rogue telepaths create the hallucination for Bester, they say Talia was the difference and was stronger than she knew, alluding to the 'gift' that Ironheart gave her.

And yes: I should have a look at the gathering too, even though that part won't make it to the recap. But Lyta touching the Vorlon will be important later...

Thank you! I'll take a look at that episode, but I think that's not enough to make the Mind War-recap even longer (it's the longest of the episode recaps so far @8 Minutes)

No, it was that he'd be dead within 48 hours of recieiving the message:

You will be dead within 48 hours of
receiving this message. Already my
agent is close to you. You will
not know who, or how, or where ...
until it is too late. It pleases
me to know that you will live in
fear, G'Kar. But not for long.

@Jan: True, but to kill with the berry is very risky, as the assassin has no way of knowing which berry goes to G'kar. So the only way to ensure that there are no other casualties is to poison every berry, and then administer the antidote to every person attending the ceremony, I don't think that's very practical. Furthermore it's not personal either, and this is clearly a personal matter...

Oh, I agree! I was just quibbling over the 48 hours bit. Sorry I wasn't more clear.

feedback is appreciated

THAT WAS HIGHLY ENJOYABLE!!!!!

More Please, oh wait I can just watch the show.

[Moonface]

Thanks, Looney!

As mentioned: Vimeo sadly has an upload limit of 500mb per week which is just over two episodes. So I'm gonna wait until I have all done and will then get a free month of some paid membership to upload all at once.

But first, I'm off to a week of holiday now, so won't be able to work on the recaps ...

This is great. I love the classic sideways wipe too... Kurosawa would have approved.
