If there was ever a coup overthrowing her, there she was, all prepared to pass as a civilian at a moment's notice. And who would ever believe an ex-president (or Federation officer recently discovered to be an ex-president) running for her life in heals? The scary thing is how it paid off.

Neat idea. > Which was actually done in Hollywood in the 50's. The most famous example I ever read about was "Cat People" but I'm sure there were others. What's even scarier is reading about the original "Little Shop of Horrors." A guy finished filming a low budget B movie and realized he had enough film left for another movie - and three days to do it in while he still had a crew and they were dismantling the sets. If any B7 episodes had been made that way, which ones would they be? Ellynne ________________________________________________________________ YOU'RE PAYING TOO MUCH FOR THE INTERNET!

I also liked the explanation he gave for why he made "Little Shop of Horrors": "We were supposed to go and play tennis but it started raining."
