"I'm sorry."
"I apologize. I'm... sorry. I'm sorry we had to defend ourselves against an unwarranted attack. I'm sorry that your crew was stupid enough to fire on a station filled with a quarter million civilians, including your own people. And I'm sorry I waited as long as I did before I blew them all straight to hell! ...As with everything else, it's the thought that counts."

3. How about this one:
"Who am I? I'm Susan Ivanova, Commander, daughter of Andrei and Sofie Ivanov. I am the right hand of vengeance, and the boot that is gonna kick your sorry ass all the way back to Earth, sweetheart. I'm death incarnate and the last living thing that you're *ever* going to see. *God* sent me."

15. It was just the snippet of Ivanova
saying that 'God sent me' before she attacked the EA fleet with the Shadow technology. :hi:

16. Cool. My wife reminds me of Ivanova sometimes.
Her parents were from Russia, and she has that same dark, dark humor. She can also be more than a little scary when she chooses.

But then, she's a smokin' hot redhead with a kind heart, so that makes up for a lot.

But that's why you posted it, I know. :rofl:

9. I know, sci-fi is a black hole to you.


Just never, *never* tell anyone on DU that you once mixed up Star Trek with Star Wars, and you like Jar Jar Binks. That's EPIC FAIL!

6. It's been forever since I watched that show. Fantastic stuff!
Pity the network played a game and ruined the flow between seasons 4 and 5...

Beats the snot out of DS9 too...

14. I always thought DS9 was just a cheap knock-off of B5.
But then, it was done so poorly that for B5 to have even acknowledged that would've brought it down a few notches, too.
