Great stuff. It was just a little favor, leading to the death of
billions! The only thing I didn't like was that he approached Delenn.
Yes, I know that was drama but he would have skipped her logically.

Gropos - Season 2, episode 10. B5 is used as a staging ground for a
Earth military operation to help prop up an alien government.  I was on
the fence about watching this one.  Ultimately I decided to watch it
because it starred Paul Winfield as the commanding officer of the
military campaign, and I thought there was going to be some action
scenes showing the invasion.  Unfortunately, not much in the action
department, but if I had skipped it, it would have bugged me.

The one Garibaldi never slept with turns up again in the Neil Gaiman
episode.
