Question: Some episodes towards the end of season 6 feature different end credits with a Warner Brothers logo but in some repeats they replace them with the normal credits - why?
Answer: Because that show was first created by Warner Bros, not CW.
Parturition - S2-E7
Question: Tom is showing Kes how to pilot a shuttle in the holodeck. Why did they use footage of Jem'Hadar fighters attacking?
Answer: Because it saves on production costs.
Answer: As stated, the practical answer is to save money on effects. The in-world answer is that they could recreate the fighters from sensor records.
Answer: To help her prepare for threats and other obstacles that she may encounter while piloting a shuttlecraft.
My question is why did the show reuse footage from ds9 s3 of Jem'Hadar fighters attacking?
Question: What did the captain say and mean after Gina says that it's been rough sometimes without her husband but her and Josh are ok?
Answer: "There is a strength to this one." Just meaning he sees Gina as a strong, independent woman who's been able to keep going despite losing her husband.
Say My Name - S5-E7
Question: Did Walt plan on killing Mike? If so, why? It seems like he just did it in a fit of rage, but then why did he take his gun?
Answer: As you stated, it was in a fit of rage, he regretted it right afterwards.
Question: Why did Juni leave the OSS again? Also, why does Carmen seem to hate him again? They got over that in the first movie.
Answer: He retired from the OSS. Carmen hates Juni because after he went out on his own he never called or did anything to let her know where he was or how he was doing.
Question: Did Brooks really have McClanahan play in the third period of the game against Sweden even though he was injured?
Answer: Yes, he did. Seeing McClanahan play through his pain inspired the rest of the team and helped them come from behind to a 2-2 tie with Sweden, which turned out to be vital.
Question: Since Lentz was really the mastermind behind the entire thing, why did Nichols have him killed?
Answer: Lentz was not the mastermind, Nichols was. Nichols had Lentz killed to tie up a loose end.
Question: How did Preston's backpack end up in the wide park area even though he left it in the woods?
Question: Why couldn't Calder and his people do the shoveling themselves? Were they lazy?
Answer: Technically Calder's people were doing the digging themselves. The planet basically had a caste system and the working class citizens had to do the digging as slaves while the upper class citizen got to live on the surface. All the workers underground were citizens of the planet except for SG-1. However, Calder was also trying to preserve this caste system because he wanted to stay in power and the upper class enjoyed their lifestyle. I don't see it so much as being lazy but more like, why do something yourself when you can get someone else to do it.
Then what would you call being lazy?
Laying around, not doing anything when you could be, or are suppose to be, doing something. In this episode, the upper class people still had jobs, they just didn't do the dangerous, dirty, and labor intensive jobs.
Question: During the slapping, what did George mean when he said send him up to the front?
Answer: "The front" means the front line, i.e., where the enemy is being engaged. He's saying that since the soldier isn't physically injured, he should be fighting, not (as Patton sees it) being a coward and shirking his duty.
Question: What was the name of the fake person that Andy helped Warden Norton create?
Answer: Randall Stephens. And strictly speaking, he didn't "help" Norton create the fake person...he did it on his own initiative, to launder Norton's ill-gotten gains. If Norton knew about Randall Stephens at all, he likely didn't understand the purpose but trusted that Andy was doing it for his (Norton's) own good.
Question: Is it known what Mundungus was selling that man in diagon alley?
Question: Was it ever confirmed that Ford died on the wraith hive ship?
Answer: No. In "The Third Path" (book from Legacy series), he even appeared on travelers ship.
Question: What did Susan do after she left at the end of season 4?
Chosen answer: She was promoted to Captain and thus had to leave Babylon 5, becoming a captain on a new Warlock class ship. Later on she retires/quits and becomes the top Ranger on Minbar.
Answer: She was promoted to Captain and headed a new class of ship called the Warlock. Hence she was no longer on the station after season 4, dealing with her grief from Marcus dying.
