Babylon 5 Season 2, Episode 7. Written by
Peter David, directed by
John C. Flinn, III. Originally aired on
December 14, 1994.
Primary Plot: Londo summons his three
wives to B5 in order to choose which one he will keep.
Secondary Plot: A man from
Talia's past,
Matthew Stoner, visits the station.
Commentary: This episode would be worthless if it weren't so damn funny! The stuff with Londo's three wives is absolutely priceless, and all three actresses (
Jane Carr as
Timov,
Lois Nettleton as
Daggair, and
Blair Valk as
Mariel) are perfectly cast in their roles. The verbal repartee between the three leads to one of my favorite lines in the series (due to my
fencing background, no doubt):
Daggair: Timov, Timov, why do you always draw me into your little verbal fencing matches?
Timov: Because I don't have a real sword handy.
