Babylon 5, Season 4: No Surrender, No Retreat
[Ivanova insists she does not need a translator to command a Minbari-crewed White Star.]
Susan Ivanova:
[in Minbari] Engines at full…high power hatrack ratcatcher to port weapons…brickbat lingerie!
Marcus Cole:
It's…
Delenn:
Um, very good!
Marcus:
Bit of an accent. But yes, very good.
Delenn:
But it is not enough to speak Minbari; you must also think in our language.
Marcus:
It can take a few seconds to translate an order. And we all know a lot can happen in a few seconds: Crash, boom, burn.
Delenn:

Ivanova:
[protesting] That's not…
Delenn:
[to Marcus] Do you mind?
Marcus:
Not at all. Love to.
[Ivanova sees she's beaten.]
Ivanova:
All right. Meet me early in the morning, or I'm leaving without you. [She stalks off.]
Marcus:
[calling after her] I'll be there!
Delenn:
Tell the crew that if anyone laughs, they will answer to me personally.
