Is it just me, or did Sheridan seem a bit dim on being unable to figure that Franklin was at least involved in the Underground Railroad?

I thought that too. It should have been obvious that Franklin was at least a messenger for them and that he would know certain things about the group.

The whole penny moving trick was bugging me and then it occurred to me what was wrong with it. Why a penny? The penny belongs to the USA, surely the entire world wouldn't adopt the USA's money system; especially since the Dollar isn't doing so hot on the world markets. Additionally, where does the penny fit in with the only system of money we've seen in B5, that being credits?

Where did Talia get it? An old antique from when she was in school with the Psi Corp?

Must've been an antique. She could've just as easily have used a buffalo nickel, a 100 lire coin, a Euro, etc. But because it's an American-made show...

Good episode. The scene in which Talia "turns" on her fellow telepaths and apparently helps Bester gunned them down really knocked me for a loop. And that last glance Bester gives Talia before leaving really had me worried. "Oh my god, does he know? Doe she suspect?", I was thinking.

And after what we've learned of the Corps, their forced marriages and breeding, God, I hope Bester and all the Corps higher-ups get hanged by their fingernails by the end of the series.

That last glance Bester gives was added in to help prevent Villain Decay.
