So I'm going to badmouth the Vorlons a bit here (don't worry, the Shadows will get theirs). These guys are immortal with millions of years to draw on and still make repeated mistakes. What's the point of immortality if you don't learn anything!?!

I do want to note that for time some things were cut from the Shaver Mystery intro. So I didn't talk about Palmer's feud with his assistant editor for example. But hey, that's what follow up videos are for right?
