    • Trivia
      When they finished editing the movie for broadcast, the producers found out that they were actually a few minutes short so the elevator scene with Zack and Lyta was added.
    • Goofs
      Ivanova says (on Sheridan's link) that the carbon-14 dating puts the artifact at one million years old. But carbon dating can only be done to objects on earth, as the carbon ratios in space would be vastly different and constantly changing.
    • Quotes

      Susan Ivanova: [upon seeing all the people running around in the docking bay] Do you think anybody would notice if I just... killed a few of them?

      Stephen Franklin, M.D.: Well... how many?

      Susan Ivanova: I don't know... uh, ten?

      Stephen Franklin, M.D.: Oh yeah. They'd notice.

      Susan Ivanova: Six?

      Stephen Franklin, M.D.: Go for it.

    By FAR the worst of the B5 movies !
    I've never liked this film very much and in fact it's probably the only time I watched a story of B5 and didn't like it on first watching, it's never really improved much.

    Generally the acting is fairly poor, Shari Belafonte does a passable job and the main acting is poor all round except for a slightly improved performance for Patricia Tallman and one good scene between Tallman and Conaway.

    In fact I'd say watch the elevator scene and listen to Trent's explanation about what happened to Lyta Alexander when she went into vorlon space, but ignore all the rest.

    This film was set in Season Four of the show, but sadly pales to all the episodes of that season except for "Conflicts of Interest" and "The Illusion of Truth".

    By far the worst of the B5 movies.
