S1E58 - Double-Spoo Quarter Pounder with Flarn
CW: discussion around the subject of the common content warning of "eye stuff", which in and of itself could be a challenge for folks. Episodes discussed: "Meditations on the Abyss" and "Darkness Ascending"
Meditations on the Abyss, in which Jude barely contains his snark over the Lennier plotline, we discuss the logistics of 23rd century fast food localization, we realize that Vir started with regicide and worked his way down to vandalism, and intercultural cuckolding is argued about at length. So many meme references.
Darkness Ascending, where we quarantine the Garibaldi plot, there's a disagreement over exactly what happens behind the curtains in G'Kar's residence, Justen drops an exceedingly spicy take and Jude immediately one-ups them, we dunk on Jude for no longer hating Franklin, and then we realize that G'Kar is the first person on the show to treat Lyta like a person. Horniest b5 episode?
