I have to admit that I really don't like this episode. Actually it is not the episode I don't like, I think it's the actress who plays Vir's wife. There is something about her I just don't like, but I can't put my finger on it.

This episode does have some great moments, though. When Vir is trying to get advice on women from Ivonova, his revelation that Centauri have, well, six, is a great scene.

Also, what ever happens to the Narn who is captured by Lindisty? I presume Vir let him go, but what about the blood oath? Wouldn't the Narn still be obligated to kill Lindisty since it should be her that he is after, and not Vir, since he has not killed any of the Narn he rescued.

I didn't like this episode either, mostly because it was `Vir's List`. It potrayed Centaury as Nazies, and I didn't like that.

So where is Lindisty? now that Vir is assistant to the emparor, you'd think she'll be back REAL quick

extreamly funny scene with Londo and the maggots, though

Ruminations

- The fake picture of lincolni could have been done better. Heck, even with photoshop, you could still make it a better pic based on Sheridan. What Ivanova did could be done with Microsoft Paint that comes with a PC.

- While Lindisty may be attractive, I'd think that Vir could and would never fall in love with her based on her ideals. While he said he thinks she can change, to consider himself still in a relationship with her seems un-Vir-like. If she changes, I could see Vir maybe going after her should he run into her again, but he'd move on with his life. However, the end of the episode makes it sound like he might take her as a wife regardless based on his comment: "What relationship doesn't have its ups and downs..."
