I...you know, I don't really have a lot to say about these episodes that I didn't last time. So this is gonna be short.
The Summoning
Ohhhhh, Susan just has NO CLUE what Marcus is talking about, doesn't she? Oh, sweetheart.
Delenn kind of cracked me up when Sheridan reappeared. She looked less pleased than, well, horrified. Maybe it was the lighting.
Lyta actually showed some self-awareness this time: that she's been used and thrown away by Kosh, and she deserves a little respect for all she's done. So she does. Too bad she's not going to get it until she has a big ol' hissy fit in S5, and even then it's really grudging, and only 'cause she can kill people with her mind. (Lyta and River Tam should hang out.)
Falling Toward Apotheosis
Ivanova's kind of caught in the middle between Sheridan and Garibaldi, isn't she? You can see her looking from one to the other in the war room, not sure what to do or say. It's pretty obvious that if push comes to shove, she's siding with Sheridan (and thus Lorien), but it warms my heart to know that she's not dismissing Garibaldi's concerns outright.
And, uh, Garibaldi's got SOME PRETTY COMPELLING CONCERNS THERE. In his position, I wouldn't trust Lorien either. And he's got a definite point about how no one's really questioning Sheridan's miraculous return ('cause they need a hero/figurehead), but are giving him the third degree. I'd be pissed as well.
I still wonder what Sheridan blackmailed Ivanova with in order to get her to do the Voice of the Resistance. It doesn't seem like her at all.

to fight crime!rather than engage in a grudge match, actually. ;)Good point about Ivanova's notoriety. But I still can't get the image of her protesting that she's no good at this public relations thing and she'd be ever so much more effective in C&C out of my head.
