"These attacks must stop!" "The attacks will stop when Centauri stops sending hostile ships into Narn space." "Quadrant 37 is neutral territory!" "The treaty makes that clear." "Narn doesn't recognize the treaty since it was imposed by force." "There!" "You see?" "I told you." "They won't honor their agreements." "An agreement signed under duress is no agreement at all, is it?" "This is getting us nowhere." "Your people have had a base on the border of Centauri space... for five years without incident." " Why this sudden provocation?" " It's necessary for security." "Keep this up and you won't have a planet to protect." "I'll return when we can discuss things in a civilized fashion." "Sir." "Alert Medbay." "Petrov!" "Petrov, what happened?" "You gotta stop them..." "They're going to kill him..." "They're going to kill..." "Going to kill who?" "It was the dawn of the Third Age of mankind 10 years after the Earth-Minbari War." "The Babylon Project was a dream given form." "Its goal: to prevent another war by creating a place where humans and aliens could work out their differences." "It's a port of call, home away from home for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs and wanderers." "Humans and aliens, wrapped in 2,500,000 tons of spinning metal, all alone in the night." "It can be a dangerous place." "But it's our last, best hope for peace." "This is the story of the last of the Babylon stations." "The year is 2258." "The name of the place is Babylon 5." "His name's Stephen Petrov." "He was a lurker in Brown 2." "I picked him up six months ago on petty theft." "A good guy who got in with the wrong people." "He's been working for me as an informant in Downbelow." "Was he working on anything when he was attacked?" "No, I hadn't heard from him in two weeks." "Sorry." "By the time he got here there was nothing we could do." "He's dead." "Damn." "He was just starting to get it together." "And now..." "It must've been something big to make him come so far in such pain." "He said they'd kill him." " Kill who?" " I don't know... but I'm going to find out." "...after which the president left Mars on a goodwill tour of the outer planet colonies." "Sources have hinted that he'll give a major policy speech New Year's Day from the jump point on Io." "It will concern human% alien relations over the remainder of his term." "We'll continue to bring you more updates on the tour... on the Interstellar Network News." "Fade." "You got any plans for New Year's Eve yet?" "Well, assuming I'm not still up to my ears in this Narn situation, no." "Good." "Because I made a few arrangements." "Such as?" "Well, let it be a surprise, okay?" "Sure." "Guess that makes two of us with surprises." "I was thinking the other day 12, almost 15 years, that's a long time to know someone." "I mean, sure, we got together, split up, gotten together again..." "Yes, it's been quite a pony ride." "But even through the worst of it, the fights the years apart, I never stopped thinking about you." "Never stopped loving you." "I didn't know why sometimes... but it never went away." "And this time I think we finally got it right." "So now with the new year coming..." "I've been going over it..." "Look, do you want to get married?" "Yes." "Well, good." " How's April by you?" " July is better." "All right." " You want coffee?" " No." "How many gods are there in our pantheon?" "I've lost count since the last emperor was elevated to godhood." "48,49." "50, counting Zoog but I never thought..." " Let's say 50." "Out of that 50, how many gods did I offend to have ended up with G'Kar's teeth buried so deeply in my throat that I can barely breathe?" "All of them?" "Sounds right." "And now I have to go back to the council and explain to them that the Centauri government will agree to give Quadrant 37 to the Narns." "I think I'll stick my head in the fusion reactor." "It would be quicker, and after a while I might even come to enjoy it." "Ambassador..." "But this, this is like being... nibbled to death by..." "What are those earth creatures called?" "Feathers, long bill, go quack?" " Cats." " Cats." "Like being nibbled to death by cats." " Yes?" " Ambassador Mollari, please." "He's busy." "Can I take a message?" "Wait, Vir, let me see." "Yes, I thought it was you." " I trust the Eye is still safe." " Yes, with your help." "What is it?" "You have a problem." "I can help." "I think we should meet." "In the park in, say, an hour?" "I'll be there." "One more thing." "I never caught your name." "Morden." "See you in an hour." "Who was that?" "Someone who did me a great favor." "More than that you don't need to know." "You can go, Vir." " Did you see Ambassador Kosh?" " I did." "Did you relay my question precisely... word for word?" "I did." " His reaction?" " Just one word." "He said yes." "Wait for me." "Anyone know Stephen Petrov?" "He used to live around here, so..." "How about you?" "Any of you guys know Petrov?" "He's dead, don't you want to get whoever did it?" "Life's cheap down here, friend." "Funny how the only time you care is when one of your weasels gets it." "In here." "You got something for me?" " I knew Petrov." "He was okay." " Yeah, he was." "And now he's dead." "We take whatever work we can get around the station." "So when they come down and say, "We need you," we go." "It's hard work, and sometimes it's not nice... but it beats scrounging." "Last week, they hired us to load cargo for transport." "What kind of cargo?" "We don't ask." "If it was legit, they would use somebody else." "After we finished, Petrov stayed on." "Seemed funny at the time." " I could tell the guy was trouble." " You got a name?" "Devereaux." "That's all I know." "He hangs out down in the casino." " Thanks." " Oh, one thing." "The last time I saw Petrov was just before he went looking for you." "Whatever he saw, whatever he knew, it scared him half to death." " Ambassador." " Mr. Morden." "I never got to thank you after you rescued the Eye from those raiders." "Unnecessary." "I'm here to be of service, ambassador." "My associates believe you're a person of great potential trapped in a position where you're unappreciated." "They'd like to change that." "Yes, I've heard this before." "And I have stopped listening." "There's a time when you look into the mirror and you realize that what you see is all that you will ever be." "Then you accept it, or you kill yourself... or you stop looking into mirrors." " No, nothing can be changed." " Then nothing's lost by trying." "You have a problem, Ambassador Mollari." "Quadrant 37." " We can fix it, if you let us." " A guarded Narn military outpost and you and your associates are going to fix it?" "For me?" " You have a peculiar sense of humor." " Yes, I do." "Tell your government you will take care of Quadrant 37." "They'll think I'm drunk or insane." " Perhaps." " And you don't want credit for this?" "No." "We're simply here to help." "Good day, ambassador." "Mr. Morden, if I may ask... what is the price for this help?" "No price, ambassador." "But in the future, if we deliver on our promises we may come to you and ask you for a favor." "That's all." "I have come, as I said I would." "Kosh, I have great doubts." "I must know if it's true." "I must see with my own eyes." "Yes." "Thank you." "Now I will keep the promise." "Goodbye." "You will not see me again as I am now." "All right!" "A winner!" "Congratulations." "Place your bets." "Mr. Devereaux?" "Security Chief Garibaldi." "Can we talk?" "Look, I'm busy now." "Maybe later." "I understand you hired a lurker named Petrov." "I hire a lot of people." "I don't keep track." "Then come to security, and we'll show you a picture." "That'll help." " I don't have time for this." " Make time." "All right." "Fine, fine." "Big mistake." "You shouldn't poke around in things you don't understand." "This is too big for you." "Yeah, yeah, yeah." "I'm shaking in my boots." "Now, move it." "We just had a message from Centauri Prime." "They want to know if you've relayed their decision." "No." "No, I haven't." "And I'm not going to." "That should go over well." "Send a reply to Homeworld." "Tell them..." "Tell them I will take care of the problem in Quadrant 37." " All right, I'll..." "What?" "!" " Are you deaf?" "No." "For a moment I thought I'd entered an alternate universe." "Are you sure you're feeling okay?" "Vir, I am quite sober." "Send the message." "Opening communication channel to Centauri Prime." "Please stand by." "Enter." "Commander, it's late." "I know." "I thought I'd try to settle the Quadrant 37 situation." "The ambassador is resting." "He's fatigued from his schedule." "Perhaps if you came back." "I believe the ambassador can see you now." "What a joy to see you." "What can I do for you?" "You can give the Centauri some room to maneuver." "That again?" "As far as I'm concerned this is a dead issue." "We have to push forward." "You told me that before the Centauri came, Narn was an agrarian world a peaceful world." "To be free, you had to fight." "That's true, but you've overcompensated." "Like abused children who abuse others as if that'll balance the scales." "It won't." "If you let your anger cloud your judgment, it'll destroy you." "We know what we're doing." "Anything else, commander?" "Just that I've had this feeling lately that we're standing at a crossroads." "And I don't like where we're going." "There's still time to choose another path." "You can be part of that process, G'Kar." "Choose wisely not just for the Centauri, but for the good of your own people as well." "We all do what we have to." "It's late." "Please go now." "So, what's the occasion?" "Who says there has to be an occasion?" "I'm not head of security because of my looks." "So?" "What's up?" "We need you to do a job for us." "Fine." "Tell me who to lean on." "Not that kind of job." "I think the official title is "best man."" "Best..." "You two?" "And I'll need a maid of honor." "I don't know anyone here." "I'll be honored." "Congratulations." "This is great." "After all this time, I'm glad things are working out." "It's funny, I was thinking about all the things we've gone through." "Look, you know me, I'm not very good at this but I just wanted you to know I've always been proud to be your friend." "And I'm honored to be your best man." "I'm honored to be best at anything." "Never fails." "Garibaldi." "What?" "The prisoner you brought in, Devereaux he's missing." " Missing?" "What do you mean?" "He and the two men are gone." "All right, on my way." "I knew this guy was suspicious." "I checked the weapon I took off him." "Every PPG has a serial number on the inner coil." "It's harder than diamond, so the number can't be removed." " But his PPG didn't have a number." " He removed it?" "It was never there." "Only special agents get unnumbered PPGs." "But this guy's name wasn't on file." "And now he's gone." "I don't like this, Jeff." "I don't like this a lot." "Perimeter guard to base." "Sector is clear." " Acknowledged." "Report to..." " Base?" "Repeat." " Any more ships due in for a while?" " Negative." "...the vice president disembarked Earthforce One." "He is undergoing medical tests while the president heads to Jupiter." "The vice president is suffering from a viral infection and will join the tour as it returns from Io." "Chief." "Aren't you watching the store?" "It's New Year's Eve." "It's quiet." "I figured I'd see if I could help." " What's up?" " Devereaux had Petrov load crates." "One shipment never made it out." "Thought I'd investigate." "What's the manifest say?" "Medical supplies, bandages, that sort of thing." "Shouldn't we find Devereaux?" "We'll find him." "Maybe this will tell us what scared Petrov like that." "Medical supplies?" "I don't think so." "Look like transmitters." "That's weird." "They're set to broadcast static." "They can flood whatever channel they're using." "A cheap jamming device." "What's that?" "Some kind of triangulation system." "Helps determine optimum placement for the transmitters." "Location is set for... grid 001 by 5 by 9." "That would put it just off the transfer point on lo." "What's the frequency on that?" " I can't make it out." " Here, let me see that." "1-0-1-0-1-0-5." "That's the gold channel frequency for Earthforce One." "Why would someone want to jam the president's...?" "Oh, my God." "Garibaldi to Sinclair." " Sinclair here." " We've got a problem." "Meet me in 20." " What?" " I'll tell you when I see you." " Guard those boxes with your life." " Will do." "This is Blue Alpha." "Stand by." "I told you not to poke around in things that are too big for you." "It's too late for that." "Up against the wall." "I think not." " Sinclair to C  C." " On line." "Thought I'd see if Garibaldi doubled back." "Still no sign of him." "He wouldn 't call for an alert and vanish, unless..." "I know." "Let me know as soon as you hear anything." "Confirmed." "Come." "Michael, where the hell...?" "Hello, commander." "I believe you recognize this." "Yes." "You remember what happened at the Battle of the Line, don't you?" "You remember being taken aboard our ship." "Only a little." "Fragments." "Images." "I don't know what it all means." "I suspected as much." "We have a lot to discuss, commander." "By coming to you, I am putting both our lives at risk." "But there are things you should know." "This isn't a good..." "We can't find Garibaldi." "I understand." "Come to my quarters and I'll tell you... as much as I can." "But don't wait too long, commander." "Certain things have been set in motion... and I do not have much time." "Ambassador?" "What is it, Na'Toth?" "The outpost in Quadrant 37 is gone." "What do you mean, gone?" "You can't establish contact?" "That's what we thought at first." "So Homeworld sent a ship to investigate." "The entire outpost has been destroyed, every building leveled." "Three heavy cruisers in near orbit, gone." "Fighters, gone." " The outpost records?" " Destroyed." "Survivors?" "None." "Ten thousand of our best warriors, dead." "It's as if some great hand reached out of space and... just erased them." "It wasn't the humans." "The Centauri don't have the will." "The Vorlons don't care." "The Minbari wouldn't do it." "The other worlds aren't powerful enough for such a strike." "There's someone else out there, Na'Toth." "Six, five, four... three, two, one!" "Are you sure there's no other way?" "What must happen will happen." "Valen said this day would come." "Who are we to stand in the way of prophecy?" "But what if you're wrong?" "Then speak well of me when I'm gone." "If he comes, it must be soon." "We have little time." "Blood pressure 60 over 10, respiration 30, pulse 120." "Prep the isolab!" "Let's get those patches here." " How bad is it?" " Bad." "Extensive thermal tissue damage, kidney and spleen damage." "You set?" "Let's turn him." "One, two, three." "Hook him up." " Will he make it?" " I'm not sure." "We can't operate until we stabilize him." "Command..." "Commander..." "It's all right." "You'll be okay." " Got to..." " Lie still." "No." "They're going to..." "Going to kill the president at the transfer point on lo." "Warn..." "We're losing him!" "Stand by on morphozine!" "Get ready." "Move, move, move!" "Earthforce One moves into position against the surface of Jupiter." "It's a sight guaranteed to impress voters." " Have you contacted Earthforce One?" " All channels are jammed." " What about the gold channels?" " The same." "Use civilian channels." "Get Earth Central." "I'm getting a recording from the relay station." " Are we getting the ISN feed?" " Yes." "Put it on-screen." "Keep working." " Maybe ISN can warn them." " There it is." "The president was scheduled to begin his speech 10 minutes ago." "So far there's been no word from Earthforce One on the delay." "According to ISN sources in Earthdome, the speech is expected to contain..." "Just a minute." "We're picking up an emergency signal now." "Are we still on the air?" "Station Io is dispatching hospital ships but it doesn 't seem possible..." " Shut it off." "...anyone could have survived..." "Shut it off." "Dr. Franklin thinks they can operate in five hours." "Even under good conditions the odds of survival are 50/50." "Garibaldi mentioned a name." "Devereaux." "Check all outgoing ships." "I want guards posted here around the clock plus constant observation." "Whoever started this will try to finish it." "I won't allow that to happen." "Understood?" "Understood." "I was looking for the commander." " He's in Medlab." " Mr. Garibaldi?" "We won't know for a while yet." "I came to tell him there seems no point to discussing Quadrant 37." " We imagine you've heard." " Yes, a little while ago." " Any clues yet as to who did it?" " No." "None." "My condolences on the death of your president." "This has been a black day for both of us." "A black and terrible day." "We will find whoever is responsible for this... and we will retaliate." "Though our two races have had our troubles I wish you luck in your own quest for justice." "May the guilty be found and punished." " You wanted to see me?" " Yes." "What have you done?" "Only what you asked me to do." "You had a problem, we took care of it." " Yes, but you killed 10,000 Narns." " I didn't know you cared." "Ten thousand, a million." "Who cares?" " They're Narns, your sworn enemy." " Yes, I know, but I didn't think..." "I thought that you might find a way to protect our ships... or cripple their forces, not..." "Your name is being spoken at the highest levels of the Centauri government." "They don't know or care how you did it." "You saved them from another embarrassment without creating a war in the process." "They've noticed you, ambassador." "That was the point of the exercise." "I hear they have great plans for you." "Yes, but 10,000 in cold blood?" "Ambassador, you're a hero." "Enjoy it." "I'll be around." "I understand, but there's nothing to support your theory." "Everything we've found points to a malfunction in the fusion reactor." "An accident." "My chief of security was shot during an investigation." "He's lying in the isolab right now." "He may never walk out again." "He said they would kill the president." "It's unlikely your security chief would just stumble across that information." " You're not listening." " I am listening." "You're just not saying anything worth hearing." "I won 't have you spreading unsubstantiated rumors." "You are ordered to maintain silence on this matter, commander." " What's up?" " I found those men." "I tried to question them." "They resisted." "The lead guy took a shot at me." "I returned fire." "Self-defense." "PPG's cold." " Lf he'd fired, it'd still be warm." " You have a point?" "No." "Everyone knows these things cool off pretty fast." "Get him into the freezer." " Blood pressure, respiration?" " Weak, but holding." "This is as good as we're ever going to get it." "Let's proceed." "Following confirmation of the death of President Luis Santiago Vice President Morgan Clark was sworn in as president." "The ceremony took place aboard Earthforce Two en route to Earth." "I, Morgan Clark, swear to uphold the laws of the Earth Alliance and to perform the role of president." "President Clark had this to say about the death of President Santiago." "We need to create the world Luis Santiago would have wanted for his children, my children and posterity." "We will begin by focusing on the needs of our own people to sustain them through this difficult time and prepare them for the tasks ahead." "And so it begins." "You have forgotten something?" "Delenn." "You're too late." "What...?" "What is it?" "A chrysalis." "She is changing." "Into what?" "I don't know." "Ambassador G'Kar?" "Voice recognition pattern Na 'Toth recognized." "Message delivery start." "Na 'Toth, by the time you get this message I will be gone." "I have suspicions about the attack on Quadrant 37." "I'm taking the first transport back to Homeworld." "I will contact you." "And one more thing." "Tell the commander... he was right." "We were at a crossroads." "There is no going back." "Expect me when you see me." "I just heard." "Is the commander...?" "I just relieved him." "He'll be back in four hours." "How is he?" "They're still operating." "It's taking longer than expected." "Well, if you don't mind, I would like to wait with you." "He is an annoying man... but I would miss him if he..." "Yes." "I think he's ready." "He's perfect for our needs." "No." "He suspects nothing." "When the time is right Ambassador Mollari will do exactly as we wish." "Destiny is on our side." "Nothing's the same anymore."
