  1. "What do you want?"

    "I want to live just long enough to see your head on a pike in the royal garden. I want to look up into your cold lifeless eyes, smile, and wave, just like this. Can you arrange that for me?"

    Well, he did arrange it.

  2. Mr. Morden was a great villain. I always enjoyed episodes with him in them. It was a shame there wasn't an episode with him and Bester together, that would have been epic.

  3. There is a scene that I'm sure just about everyone here is familiar with, where Morden asks Vir what HE wants. Vir gives the famous reply of: "I'd like to live just long enough to be there when they cut off your head and stick it on a pike as a warning to the next ten generations that some favors come with too high a price. I would look up at your lifeless eyes and wave like this. Can you and your associates arrange that for me Mr. Morden?" Morden then pulls out the data crystal he had originally intended to give to Molari and tells Vir: "Here is the information ambassador Molari asked for. Give it to him when he arrives." What is funny is that Morden is holding the crystal with his thumb and middle finger, thus looking like he is giving Vir the finger for the burn he just got.

    I have no idea if Ed Wassar (Morden's actor) did that intentionally or not, but it was funny as hell.
