I don't see that Londo is in a position to do anything to the Regent's
keeper, or the Regent himself, especially if the Regent was fatally
strangled by the keeper last week.

Morella says that becoming Emperor is a done deal, no way to avoid it,
whether Londo gives in to it or not. I think his greatest fear will
prove to be either death, or being held responsible for the downfall of
his people. The latter seems to fit more with Londo's personality and
his intense desire to see the Centauri people ascendant in the galaxy.
"In the Beginning" showed him tired and resigned to the destruction that
was occurring in the city outside the palace. Perhaps the destruction is
being caused by the Interstellar Alliance? With Vir aiding them,
perhaps, leading to his establishment as Emperor, keeper-free, following
Londo's death at G'Kar's hands?

Because we have only $3 million on which to make these movies, we have to
rotate the cast because we can't afford to have them all in any one of them. 
Bruce and Mira were in the first two, so we gave Tracy a shot and put in Jerry
as well as Corwin (his first), Zack and Franklin.

We're just looking for ways to be fair to the maximum number of cast with the
resources we have.
