Mr. Morden : What do YOU want?
Ambassador Vir Cotto : I'd like to live just long enough to be there when they cut off your head and stick it on a pike as a warning to the next ten generations that some favors come with too high a price. I want to look up into your lifeless eyes and wave like this.
[waves]
Ambassador Vir Cotto : Can you and your associates arrange that for me, Mr. Morden?
-
Ambassador Londo Mollari : But this - this, this, this is like being nibbled to death by... what are those Earth creatures called? Feathers, long bill, webbed feet... go 'quack'...
Ambassador Vir Cotto : Cats.
Ambassador Londo Mollari : Cats. Being nibbled to death by cats.

Lennier : [Lennier and Vir do not make eye contact during this conversation] Sometimes I get so close and yet it feels like I'm shut out of the important things.

Lennier : Indeed. And now with the military starting to stampede over everyone and everything...
Ambassador Vir Cotto : People coming and going and secret meetings...
Lennier : You never know what it's all about until later when it's too late.

Ambassador Vir Cotto , Lennier : Makes me nervous.
Ambassador Vir Cotto : [they finally look at each other] Same time tomorrow?
