According to the Babylon 5 time-line, it is during this time that Catherine Sakai (Commander Sinclair's fiancée) returns to Babylon 5 and learns of Sinclair's reassignment. She then goes to Minbar, and eventually becomes a Ranger.

The aliens who kidnap Sheridan are called the Streibs, after novelist Whitley Strieber. The aliens in the show look just like the ones he describes in his book, 'Communion'.

Captain Sheridan misquotes Archimedes, discoverer of the principles of leverage. Sheridan says, "Give me a lever big enough and I will move the world." What Archimedes actually said was, "Give me somewhere to stand, and I will move the Earth."

This takes place in July 2259.

This episode marks the first appearance of Marshall Teague's Narn character Ta'Lon. Even though he only appeared in a handful of episodes, the common respect and friendship between his character and captain John Sheridan was considered by fans a subtle but high point of the series.

As the episode begins, you see an alien ship being abducted by a much larger alien ship--who and what these are is uncertain. Later, when Sheridan and a small group of B-5 pilots are on maneuvers, Sheridan himself is captured by this same huge ship. Once aboard, he awakens to find he's a prisoner in an odd-looking cell and there's no indication where he is or who has kidnapped him. Suddenly, a crazed Drazi appears and tries to kill Sheridan. This Drazi is wearing some sort of device on his head that appears to make him an unreasoning fighting machine and Sheridan is forced to kill him to prevent being killed. Then, a Narn with a similar device appears and Sheridan tries again and again not to kill but just disable the guy. Although seriously injured, Sheridan does his best to care for the Narn and is able to eventually get the device off his head.

In the meantime, the station is panicked trying to find Sheridan. With the help of the Minbari, they are able to get some clues as to where he's being held. Considering Bruce Boxleitner IS the star of the show, it isn't surprising that he is eventually rescued. However, considering how well written this episode is AND because the Narn he saves eventually appeared in future episodes (I love this continuity), it is a standout show.
