Yet another great season ender. Man this was tense. I knew from this episode out that things with Earth would only get worse.
Too bad about the ending there. I liked Keffer.
And how about that Kosh, eh? :-)
Yeah it sounds suspect now, but I never liked Kosh much. Ever sense Deathwalker it was obvious he (re the Vorlans) were pulling everyone elses strings. This episode just proved it. My nit is, didn't anyone get suspicious when they all saw something different? Our heroes must not be very smart if all the Vorlons have to do to fool them is tug on the heart string a little, while flat out insulting their IQ.
Adam: Hey, faith can be a powerful thing. The reactions of those who saw Kosh were reflective of that. Of course I don't know what I would've seen. I'm agnostic. Maybe that weird dream I had would come true and Kosh would appear has a big black lesbian (that's what I've said God is. IMHO!).
I think that the fall was all wrong. I'm not sure... but if I remember correctly, Sheridan should fall in a sphiral around the center of the station... anyone with the phisics to disprove me?
Anyway, great ep!
Omer: I spotted that too. And I almost never catch that kind of nit.
Great Episode.
Sheridan's fall is kind of strange.
I think (with my limited physic's) that Sheridan would fall straight. But the station would spin so it would appear to the people in the Garden that Sheridan not them were spinning. (That least thats the way I see it.)
ANP
My nit is that Delenn has stated that they do not worship a God/Goddess or pantheon of Gods. They class the universe as one giant living organism basically (I think that's about right). Valen and so on are prophets, but are still people. So how come Minbari saw a godlike figure when Kosh appeared.
I think angelic figure is closer. That's what Sheridan's vision resembled to me. About the Minbari, I don't know. Maybe they have some kind of mythology from way back when that the Vorlons would resemble.
When Sheridan talks to Delenn about Kosh's appearance he does question whether it is just another Vorlon manipulation. That 'they make us see what they want us to see'. This shows Sheridan is not completely clueless.
