Babylon 5 - 01x06 The Parliament of Dreams

Summary: G'Kar receives a message informing him that an assassin has been sent by an old nemesis who's hatred even surpasses his death. He has put his entire fortune on his death bed to the one who can reach the ambassador and kill him. G'Kar has 48 hours left to live, he finds out. Sinclair has other things on his mind, as his former lover Catherine arrived to the station, just in time for a rather rambunctious religious celebration hosted by Londo.

MISTAKES/GOOFS

CONT: SPOILER: At the end of "Mind War", Talia Winters has a penny on a table. In the first shot, it shows tails, while the next shot shows it heads up. The likelihood of it being flipped are low as she tests her new telekinetic abilities by sliding it.
CONT: When Talia is testing her "gift", there is a shot of a penny on the table with the words "one cent" bracketed by wreaths facing up. Later, when the shot returns to the penny, the bust of Lincoln (the opposite side of the coin) is facing up.
FACT: Jason Ironheart explains he was given "mutated" serotonin and acetylcholine. In order for something to mutate, it requires the presence of DNA. Both of these chemicals are neurotransmitters and contain no DNA, so they can't mutate.
CHAR: Ironheart mispronounces the term serotonin.

TRIVIA

The special goodbye salute used by Alfred Bester (Walter Koenig (I) ) in the episode "Mind War" is the same one used in the short-lived series, "The Prisoner" (1967). The salute - and the catchphrase "Be seeing you" from the same show - were also used by other characters throughout the first season, all of whom turned out to be Earthdome "mole" agents or affiliated with PsiCorps.
Walter Koenig (I) added a personal touch to the character of Alfred Bester, giving him a crippled left hand. If you look closely, the hand is always clenched in a fist.
