Meanwhile, Londo and his bodyguard visit Centauri Prime, where they are immediately swept up in intrigue and murder. The title of this episode was drawn from a quote which ends ". . .the one-eyed man is king" -- and as it turns out, the quote is more than just a proverb. Originally seen on March 18, 1998, "In the Kingdom of the Blind" was written by J. Michael Straczynski. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
