Poem For Ivanova

((Theme music for Gilligan's Island))

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip. That started from an exotic port, aboard a semi-organic ship.

((a purple beam carves up B5 as the Whitestar escapes))

The Commander a mighty fightn' woman,

((Ivanova doing the "Boom shaka laka" number))

the Captain "Starkiller" for sure.

((Sheridan does the "I'm not even thinking what I'm thinking" piece))

Five passengers in hyperspace that day, for a three jumpsequence tour, a three jumpsequence tour.

((Kosh, wearing Bermuda Encounter Shorts, boards the Whitestar accompanied by Lyta Alexander, who is struggling with a cooler full of Zima, 2 beach chairs, towels, a volleyball and assorted bottles of SPF 1000 sunscreen for sensitive non corporal skin. Delenn, dressed in wholesome but sexy alien-next-door beach attire stares longingly at Sheridan as he welcomes the passengers on board. Londo doesn't see the "low doorway" sign and breaks his hair. Vir fumbles through 47 steamer trunks and mutters "spoo jerky, freeze dried spoo, spoo on a stick, now where did I put the hair spray?"))

The Shadows started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed. If not for the courage of the fearless crew, the Whitestar would be lost, the Whitestar would be lost.

((The Whitestar is set upon by 1000's of Shadow ships. Interior shot of tumbling bodies, various spoo items, smoke, beach chairs, sparks and a volleyball. In a flash of inspiration, Sheridan orders Ivanova to eject all of Londo's hair care products. A Shadow beam ignites the flammable hair spray, destroying all the Shadow ships. Badly damaged, the Whitestar goes out of control. Final image of a volleyball spinning faster and faster and fade out))

The ship crashed down upon the shore of some uncharted planet, with Ivanova, the Captain too, the Ambassador, and Vir, the Telepath, the First One, and Delenn, all here on Ivanova's Planet!

((The Whitestar, with a large hole in the side, lies on a beach beside a rock outcropping. The castaways stand on the beach in a circle around Kosh and Sheridan, who face each other across a punctured volleyball. Sheridan: yells "Dang it Kosh! You destroyed our only means of building team spirit and physical fitness! We'll be stuck here forever now, how do you explain yourself? Kosh: {sounds of car crash, belch, 357 magnum shot, woodpecker, one hand clapping, fingernails on chalkboard} We have always been here!))
