Lennier on a Mission

Story: Meditations on the Abyss
Written By: J. Michael Straczynski
Season: 5

Delenn asks Lennier to join a mission in order to find proof of the Centauri attacks.  while there he mostly just trains...and he tries to help another young ranger who seems to have joined for the wrong reasons and keeps screwing up.  It is a decent training story for Lennier as a Ranger, which since he has joined we really have seen little of.  
Another story involves Vir, who is being named as Londo’s successor as Ambassador to the Station when Londo becomes Emperor.  Londo at first tells Vir that he isn’t quite ready...but after they find a bug left by the Drazi, Vir goes into full attack mode, which from the look on Londo’s face means he thinks the guy is finally ready for the role.  

We also got a bit more of a taste of the Narn taking spiritual lessons from G’Kar, which was entertaining.  The episode ends on a somber note of seeing a drunken Garibaldi singing and ordering a pizza.  It’s really sad to see him fall so far. Decent episode, though in hindisght not much happens.  I guess it was more of a character episode.
