For those too young to even be acquainted with him, one of Jack Benny's signature foibles was that he (the character) was always 39, even as he was on radio and TV for 40 years. Another theme was that he was incredibly cheap (even though he was actually quite generous in real life). In one famous sketch, an insurance investigator was questioning him as to whether he was the man he was looking for, who was to receive a $25,000 bequest. Everything was going well and Jack was getting very excited, and then came the final question: "How old are you?" "39!" "Oh, that's too bad; the Jack Benny I'm looking for is 54!" Silence, and the audience titters as they understand the problem, and Mary Livingston then dryly quips "The irresistible force meets the immovable object." After a long pause, Jack finally says, "I'm sorry, I'm not the Jack Benny you're looking for", and the man leaves. The cast asks Jack how he could give up all that money, and he responds, "It was easy. Where else could you get 15 years younger for only $25,000?"

Also, we do hear about Talia's added powers (from Ironheart) once more, in the S2 episode about the Underground Railroad for escaping telepaths (she can help the group implant an elaborate illusion into Bester's mind).
