Arc Notes / Story Points of Interest

- Two big plot threads are telegraphed here: Scary Psicorp and Scary Ancient God Aliens.

- Apparently Sinclair gets to live a million years. Lucky jerk!


Trivia

- G'Kar is still a totes rad baller.

I'm not sure why they set up Ivanova's history with Psicorp just so she can say totally justified things about them. Where's the hyperbole?

A reminder: not everyone playing along has seen the series before, so please be considerate about major spoilers. Vagueness, warnings and/or spoiler tags are appreciated.
