1
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,756
Why do we have to lay out
the welcome mat for these guys?
2
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:11,352
When Minbari's greatest warrior
dies while on a diplomatic tour...
3
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,472
...they want to honor him
on his journey home.
4
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:16,995
Displaying his body
to every Minbari...
5
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:21,193
...from the Euphrates Sect to their
planet sounds like war drums to me.
6
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:23,635
Minbari vessel coming through.
7
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:40,028
A war cruiser. Never thought
I'd see one of those again.
8
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,232
Mitchell, stay in formation!
It might be a...
9
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,874
Oh, my God! It's a trap! Mitchell!
10
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,873
- I got a clear shot.
- Break off!
11
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:51,913
I'm hit! Ejecting!
12
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,591
Well, they're still big and ugly.
13
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,232
Attention, shoppers.
14
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:09,275
You can now find all your culinary
needs at our kitchen on level 6.
15
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:14,429
Fresh chocolates are on special
while they last.
16
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,677
- Ivanova here.
-The Minbari ship is through.
17
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:25,111
I'm on my way. Check, please.
18
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:53,229
Hey!
19
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:55,951
Come back here! Thief!
20
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,475
Stop! Thief! Stop her!
21
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:09,836
- Get Dr. Franklin.
- You know this girl?
22
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:14,352
No. She's just taken a mind-burst.
She's a telepath.
23
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,076
Security scan finished.
24
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:22,990
The Minbari's coming in with her gun
ports open. She's armed for a fight.
25
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,870
It was the dawn
of the Third Age of mankind...
26
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,873
... 1 0 years after
the Earth-Minbari War.
27
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,952
The Babylon Project
was a dream given form.
28
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,476
Its goal: to prevent another war
by creating a place...
29
00:02:43,640 --> 00:02:47,428
... where humans and aliens
could work out their differences.
30
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,353
It's a port of call,
home away from home...
31
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,672
... for diplomats, hustlers,
entrepreneurs and wanderers.
32
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:59,153
Humans and aliens,
wrapped in 2,500,000 tons...
33
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:03,950
... of spinning metal,
all alone in the night.
34
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,551
It can be a dangerous place.
35
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,837
But it's our last,
best hope for peace.
36
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,231
This is the story of the last
of the Babylon stations.
37
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,755
The year is 2258.
38
00:03:15,920 --> 00:03:18,593
The name of the place is Babylon 5.
39
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,831
Gun ports are still open!
40
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,713
- Let's activate the defense grid.
- Agreed.
41
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,878
This is Babylon
to Minbari cruiser, Ingata.
42
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:13,393
Your gun ports are in attack position.
Please explain.
43
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:17,752
- We are on a peaceful mission.
- Then why are your gun ports open?
44
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,674
We have no interest
in explaining our ways to you.
45
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:26,036
I'm sorry there has been
a misunderstanding.
46
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,915
Scan the ship. You'll find
that the guns are not active.
47
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,674
Confirmed. No targeting sensors.
48
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:38,079
It's only a symbol to show they carry
the body of a great warrior leader.
49
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:43,155
Do you have something in your military
traditions to honor a fallen leader?
50
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,669
Yes, the "missing man" formation.
51
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,555
It's no more than that.
While they are parked alongside...
52
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:55,392
...the captain will comply by closing
the gun ports. Is that satisfactory?
53
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,876
- Barely.
- Good. Then if you will excuse me...
54
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,231
...I must prepare to meet the cortege.
55
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,996
You'll both join me there, of course,
to honor Branmer's memory...
56
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,078
...and to welcome the cortege.
- We'll be there.
57
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:22,473
Keep scanning that ship.
If their tracking system blinks...
58
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,796
...in our direction... .
- Understood.
59
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:44,718
Readings are all normal except
the EEG. What happened to her?
60
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,717
She took a mind-burst.
61
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,839
She's a telepath, a strong one.
62
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,749
- I felt her when she took the burst.
- What's a burst?
63
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,556
Those born with psi talent learn
to block the noise of other minds.
64
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,992
Sometimes the talent needs
to be triggered. Puberty can do it.
65
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,071
She looks about that age.
66
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:09,199
So it's as if a deaf person
suddenly heard a rocket engine?
67
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:13,951
Exactly. She didn't know what was
happening and her mind ran and hid.
68
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,675
If her telepathy just woke up and
Psi Corps doesn't know it...
69
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,348
There's a genetic record somewhere.
70
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:25,031
I'll arrange for her transport to Earth.
A Psi Corps rep can meet her there.
71
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:30,234
Negative. She committed theft.
She's under station jurisdiction.
72
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,119
- You're not being reasonable.
- It's my call.
73
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,790
Excuse me, until this is resolved,
she's my patient...
74
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,509
...and I'm ordering you out.
Both of you.
75
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:56,469
You'll really attend this ceremony?
Branmer led the attack on the Line.
76
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:01,754
He commanded one of the ships that
splashed my team, but the war is over.
77
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:06,152
Giving the Minbari this courtesy
is a sign of respect.
78
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,750
It'll help strengthen the reconciliation
of our two worlds.
79
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:15,153
Maybe, but if you ask me,
this is gonna be nothing but trouble.
80
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,350
Ambassador Delenn.
81
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,030
Alit Neroon.
82
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,277
I welcome you on behalf
of all Minbari on this station.
83
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,989
You're traveling an unhappy journey.
84
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,351
For the warrior,
there is no other end to the journey.
85
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,348
This is Commander Sinclair,
Lieutenant Commander lvanova...
86
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,829
...and Chief of Security Garibaldi.
87
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:10,079
A place is arranged in which
the Shai Alit may lie in state.
88
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:14,438
It is a worthy thing
to honor the Shai Alit. Thank you.
89
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:18,713
And worthy that you'd honor this place
with his presence.
90
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,236
We'll escort you
to the area we've set aside.
91
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,351
This way, please.
92
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:37,279
The arrangements are most
satisfactory. Simple, but elegant.
93
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:43,112
- Thank you. Who is Alit Neroon?
- Branmer's aide and executive officer.
94
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,995
He served the Shai Alit
for more than 1 5 years.
95
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,070
I'd like you to be present
at the viewing of Shai Alit's body.
96
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,317
- Of course.
- I sense some reluctance.
97
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,432
He was a canny enemy.
It's difficult to forget.
98
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,438
Because he was a great warrior,
his body...
99
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,835
...is being displayed in this way.
100
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,310
- It's not traditional?
- It is most unusual.
101
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,592
The Star Riders, his clan,
insisted on it.
102
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,268
You don't like it, do you?
103
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:17,799
My preferences were not
under discussion, commander.
104
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,669
- How's she doing?
- She's coming around.
105
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,910
How do you feel?
106
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,997
Gently, Alisa. Calm down.
Do as I say...
107
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,436
...and block out the voices
inside your head. Relax.
108
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:44,078
Imagine a wall inside your mind.
Build it, brick by brick.
109
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:48,319
- I can't!
- Yes, you can! Focus! See the wall.
110
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,909
It'll go away
as the wall goes higher.
111
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,793
You'll only hear
what you want to hear.
112
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,273
Yes, like that.
113
00:09:57,680 --> 00:09:59,830
Just like that.
114
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:03,832
It's better.
115
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,470
So where did you get her name?
116
00:10:09,680 --> 00:10:12,877
She can't control her talent.
Her thoughts are broadcast.
117
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,152
Alisa Beldon.
Came here with her father.
118
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:20,757
- Computer, access: "Beldon, Alisa. "
-Commencing search. File found.
119
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:25,636
Came here two years ago with her
father. Both Earthborn. She was l2.
120
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:30,231
Mother's death recorded six years
prior. No further information.
121
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,994
Her father died last year.
An accident.
122
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,919
She's been living
on her own in Downbelow.
123
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,714
Am I under arrest?
124
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:41,990
I had to eat.
125
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:46,393
You don't stay alive
unless you got credits to pay with.
126
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,670
Don't feel bad about it.
I'm used to doing for myself.
127
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,555
- My mom died young too, same as yours.
- Stop that!
128
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:57,352
What's the matter?
129
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,353
Never read someone's mind
without permission.
130
00:11:00,560 --> 00:11:05,111
But it was so plain.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything.
131
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,352
As I said, she needs
to be properly trained.
132
00:11:08,680 --> 00:11:11,911
The sooner you're
with the Psi Corps, the better.
133
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,159
We still haven't dealt
with the charges against her.
134
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,352
- Keep me posted on her condition.
- Lt. Commander...
135
00:11:19,560 --> 00:11:22,358
...is there a reason why
you're interested?
136
00:11:22,560 --> 00:11:25,870
Yes. She's not leaving here,
Miss Winters.
137
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,878
Not if I have anything
to say about it.
138
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:41,070
- Station your people at the access ports.
- Commander!
139
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,636
Alit, you've found
everything satisfactory?
140
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,071
There are procedures
that must be followed.
141
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,272
You'll keep all other races,
especially humans...
142
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,790
...away from the area
until the viewing ceremony.
143
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,391
- Don't worry, my security team will...
- No! No human security.
144
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,076
I've arranged for Minbari guards
on the body.
145
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,794
None of you will interfere
with them.
146
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,037
- Now, just a minute...
- Mr. Garibaldi. Diplomacy.
147
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,312
- Anything else?
- That will suffice for now.
148
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,755
These are my requirements.
149
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,474
This is my station.
I don't take orders!
150
00:12:17,680 --> 00:12:21,468
Impetuous. Is this how you reacted
on the Line, commander?
151
00:12:21,680 --> 00:12:26,117
- This isn't the Line.
- No. We were in control there.
152
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:29,198
- How would you like to...?
- It's been my experience...
153
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,319
...that discussions of old battles
only interest historians.
154
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:38,513
- What do you think, commander?
- I think...
155
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,234
...I have a station to run.
156
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,000
Now, if you'll excuse us.
157
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,829
Diplomacy, commander?
158
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,674
This was the greatest of us.
159
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,438
Warrior...
160
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:37,438
...leader...
161
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,320
...the hero of the Line!
162
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,276
He fought with honor...
163
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,192
...bravery...
164
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,595
...and with vision.
165
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:52,158
Now he belongs to the ages.
166
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,632
Where is the Shai Alit?!
167
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:23,353
What?
168
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,316
Where is the Shai Alit's body?
169
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,353
We'll find out.
I launched an investigation.
170
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,950
This is a grave offense, commander.
Unforgivable!
171
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,436
Minbaris are heedless
of their own lives in battle...
172
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,110
...but the warrior's body must
be treated with reverence.
173
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,675
Branmer's death was a sorrow to us.
174
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:57,833
To lose his soul's vessel will bring
his clan's fury upon you!
175
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,198
Are you threatening war?
176
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,039
The last one started
with Dukhat's murder!
177
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,312
- That was a tragic accident.
- Lf this is another accident...
178
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:10,632
If I may, no matter
how great the loss...
179
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:16,437
...it is not our way to let
a single clan dictate Minbari policy.
180
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:22,311
We'll appreciate your best efforts
to solve this mystery, commander.
181
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:26,672
I suggest we allow them to get on
with their investigation.
182
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,280
I've got a few things to tend to.
183
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,556
Fun, fun, fun.
184
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,988
Garibaldi was right.
He said this was going to be trouble.
185
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,835
Nothing is more annoying
than Garibaldi when he's right.
186
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:54,312
If you've got a moment
for another matter, a personal matter?
187
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:59,116
We found a young girl, an orphan,
she's been living Downbelow.
188
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,515
It turns out she's a telepath.
189
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,996
Miss Winters wants to send her
to the Psi Corps immediately.
190
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,350
I think she should have a choice.
191
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,633
I agree.
But does she have any other choice?
192
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:16,868
Possibly. If we can keep her under our
jurisdiction long enough to find it.
193
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,595
Commander, what happened before... .
194
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:24,839
My mother?
I just can't let this slide.
195
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:28,077
I know.
Do what you think is right.
196
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,239
- I'll back your play.
- Yes, sir.
197
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,038
Thank you.
198
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,073
Why would anyone
wanna take Branmer's body?
199
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:56,671
- Lf he was that highly regarded... .
- Minbari have high regard for him.
200
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,075
As for others... .
201
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:03,239
- How'd you respond upon hearing this?
- All right.
202
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,238
Humans who fought Branmer
have no love for him.
203
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:10,399
There are elements on Earth
who feel that way: the Home Guard.
204
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,751
But they would have broadcast
the news right away.
205
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:18,033
No one has claimed credit
for taking this great general's body.
206
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,994
Great general, yes.
207
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:25,238
The last thing he wanted to be.
208
00:17:26,360 --> 00:17:30,638
Before he became a warrior
of the Star Riders clan...
209
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,076
...Branmer was a high priest
of the religious caste.
210
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:38,751
The Holy War against Earth forced him
to become a war leader.
211
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:43,715
He was a brilliant tactician.
He believed in the rightness of the war.
212
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,356
He fought because it was a matter
of conscience...
213
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,358
...but he was always
a priest in his heart.
214
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:54,758
I've heard the religious caste issued
the surrender order. Branmer agreed?
215
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:59,431
He obeyed. There are still warriors
who resented it.
216
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:04,515
One leader, Sinavel, committed suicide
rather than give the surrender order.
217
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,671
And Neroon?
218
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:11,829
Neroon is also a Star Rider.
He would have died for Branmer.
219
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,032
If Branmer gave an order,
he would follow it.
220
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:16,958
But now, with Branmer gone...
221
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,948
...I get the feeling that Neroon's
spoiling for a rematch.
222
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:23,830
We will see...
223
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,395
...what we will see.
224
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,718
You think we might have had something
to do with the disappearance?
225
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,151
- Why should we want it?
- Well, let's see. Ransom?
226
00:18:36,360 --> 00:18:39,432
Embarrassing the Minbari?
Blackening our reputation?
227
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:43,269
That could help your career back home.
I can go on.
228
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,836
I'm sure you could,
but I'm not interested.
229
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,430
The Narn Regime
has accomplished many things...
230
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,997
...but bodysnatching isn't one
of them. Go ask in the Alien Sector.
231
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:59,478
I'm sure you could find someone
with an interest in dead bodies.
232
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:05,558
- Oh, no, not the carrion eaters.
-Bon appétit.
233
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,110
I appreciate the clothes.
The other ones were getting ripe.
234
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,959
We should get you more
before your trip to Earth.
235
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,948
- The Psi Corps pays for all this?
- It takes care of its own.
236
00:19:19,120 --> 00:19:22,112
Tell her what else the Psi Corps does.
237
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,791
- This isn't any of your concern.
- Yes, it is, and you know why it is.
238
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:32,028
So let me talk to her, unless you're
afraid to let her hear another side.
239
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,956
Psi Corps doesn't sound so bad.
I don't understand.
240
00:19:43,120 --> 00:19:46,635
Did she tell you what they do
to those who don't want to join?
241
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,756
- No.
- Let me tell you a story.
242
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:52,999
It's about a woman who fell in love,
got married, had children.
243
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:58,877
One problem: She's a telepath. She
kept it from Psi Corps till she's 35.
244
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:00,638
By then, she had two kids.
245
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,549
The corps told her to come
with them or go to prison.
246
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,395
But she loved her family
and she refused to leave them.
247
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,677
There was only one way
they would let her stay.
248
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,395
Every week, for 1 0 years...
249
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,956
...they injected her with drugs
to suppress her telepathy.
250
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:24,357
Every day she died a little...
251
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:28,314
...until she finally ended it
by taking her own life.
252
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,635
That was your mother.
253
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,670
That's the image I saw
in your mind the other day.
254
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,029
I have no love for the Psi Corps.
255
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:46,189
You've every right to know all about
them before you decide to join them.
256
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:51,718
Yeah, but I don't have much
of a choice here, do I?
257
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,117
Well, I'm investigating your options.
258
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,993
There may be more than you think.
259
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:04,552
Alisa...
260
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,429
...can I have my link, please?
261
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:11,830
Just keeping in practice...
262
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:13,792
...in case.
263
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:26,476
- What have you discovered?
- Does "not much" mean anything to you?
264
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,791
- I was promised an investigation.
- You're getting it.
265
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:32,554
I thought of the Llort,
they're pack rats.
266
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:37,669
They collect souvenirs for the pure
sake of collecting, but not bodies.
267
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,553
- There's one other possibility, but...
- Chief!
268
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,871
I found that outside
the Pak'ma'ra's quarters.
269
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:49,313
This is a piece of Branmer's
burial robe. What are these Pak'ma'ra?
270
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,590
Carrion eaters.
271
00:21:55,120 --> 00:21:57,588
This is nothing to me.
272
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,469
It was found on the deck
directly outside these quarters.
273
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,959
I'm not responsible
for the cleanliness of your decks.
274
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,869
This fabric is from the burial robe
of a Minbari leader.
275
00:22:11,360 --> 00:22:14,397
- His body's been stolen.
- And so?
276
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:17,273
Where is the body?
What did you do with it?
277
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:22,110
Answer the question!
As a courtesy to our Minbari friends.
278
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,356
I have heard nothing!
279
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,597
Then I'll have
to make a deeper inquiry.
280
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,150
A deeper inquiry?
281
00:22:30,360 --> 00:22:33,670
I'll insist that you all
have your stomachs pumped.
282
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,790
The house would be decorated entirely
to your taste...
283
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:48,037
...in Earth style or Narnish,
if you prefer.
284
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,993
You mentioned clothing and jewelry?
285
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,954
There will be an allowance
for clothing and adornments.
286
00:22:55,120 --> 00:22:59,796
In addition to your fee for services.
We're prepared to be generous.
287
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,715
What services will she render?
288
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,230
I was making an offer to Alisa,
not to you.
289
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:10,115
- What services?
- So simple and yet so rewarding.
290
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:14,996
All we ask is a small sample
of blood and tissue twice a month.
291
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,668
We're the only race without telepaths.
292
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:22,595
You'd become the genetic mother
of an entire breed of Narn telepaths.
293
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,189
- I don't believe this.
- Welcome to the club.
294
00:23:25,360 --> 00:23:30,639
Didn't G'Kar try something like this?
You trying to succeed where he failed?
295
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,031
I'd have to live
on the Narn Homeworld.
296
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:38,119
- But it sounds interesting.
- You'd be the only human there.
297
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:42,757
But we're prepared to pay well
for the privilege of entertaining her.
298
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:48,080
I'd really like to see it.
I almost can if I concen...
299
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,675
- I'll talk to you later.
- Alisa?
300
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,189
I have to lie down.
301
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,868
I hope that isn't a sign of frailty.
302
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,196
Why not check her teeth too?
303
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:08,757
- Think that's a good idea?
- Leave. You've made your offer.
304
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:14,114
Tell her I expect her answer soon.
Good idea about the teeth.
305
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,553
- What happened?
- I peeked into her mind.
306
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:23,514
- I know I'm not supposed to, but...
- What was it like in there?
307
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:25,793
Cold!
308
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,718
Ugly.
309
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:32,436
Alien! It's not like looking
into a human mind.
310
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,553
It felt like I was falling
into something terrible.
311
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:41,831
You might wanna remember that
when you consider their offer.
312
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,476
Narrow the search.
You guys, check Green 2.
313
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,514
- Doc, any results on those tests?
- Yes, just got them back.
314
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,439
Next time,
you can do the stomach pumping.
315
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:59,832
- Had to burn 2 lab coats. They stink.
- You didn't find anything?
316
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,476
No, they ate something, definitely,
just not Minbari.
317
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,989
- You tested all of them?
- Absolutely.
318
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,435
So where do you look now?
319
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:14,317
In the beams and rafters. Between
hulls. It's the only place left.
320
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,519
You know what they say
Narn tastes like?
321
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,992
Yeah, chicken.
Man, I really need a vacation.
322
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:28,311
The man is useless! Stomach contents!
323
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:30,917
Branmer's body must be found.
324
00:25:31,120 --> 00:25:35,193
If Garibaldi can't handle
the assignment, he must be replaced!
325
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:40,349
He'll do his job. A search of all
public areas had to be done first.
326
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:45,554
If they have to take this place apart
and put it back again, they will.
327
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:49,799
If he fails in his search,
it may be necessary to have my ship...
328
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,151
...assume the job
of taking this station apart!
329
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:59,270
- I don't take kindly to threats, Alit.
- I do not make threats, commander!
330
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:06,917
You're a high P-1 0.
331
00:26:07,120 --> 00:26:09,953
Na'Toth might up her bid
if she knew that.
332
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:16,110
- You didn't like the Narn mind.
- I'd just give biogenetic samples.
333
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:20,791
I can supply you with history modules
on the Narn Regime.
334
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,751
The Centauri occupation
left it barren, almost dead.
335
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,111
The Narns only want
to conquer other races now.
336
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:33,678
They make slaves of their victims.
They'll try and make one of you too...
337
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,992
...like the Psi Corps.
- You've problems with the Psi Corps.
338
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:41,909
I sympathize with your feelings,
but don't poison her with them.
339
00:26:42,120 --> 00:26:45,271
- They've ruined lives.
- They've done good things too.
340
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,313
- Your mother didn't cooperate.
- Like your friend Ironheart?
341
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:52,798
- You leave him out of this!
- Stop it! Stop it, both of you!
342
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:57,632
You keep arguing over what you want!
You don't care what I want!
343
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,077
All right, Alisa, what do you want?
344
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:08,719
To know the truth about
all my choices. Is that all of it?
345
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,753
Narn, Psi Corps, the drugs?
346
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:17,511
No. There's one more possibility
you should consider.
347
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:22,279
Come.
348
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:27,108
- Thanks for taking the time to see us.
- It's my pleasure.
349
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,749
So, Alisa, you wish to know
about Minbari telepaths?
350
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:35,157
I wanna see all the cards
before I make a bet.
351
00:27:35,360 --> 00:27:40,229
- I wasn't aware a game was involved.
- It's just an expression of speech.
352
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:45,036
Well, perhaps we should start
with some general information first.
353
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,471
For the Minbari, psi ability
is considered a gift.
354
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,150
The use of it is given
as a service to those in need.
355
00:27:52,360 --> 00:27:55,909
- They're not paid?
- Only with our people's high regard.
356
00:27:56,080 --> 00:28:00,710
It isn't a job, it's a calling.
It's enough for them to be of service.
357
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,472
Then how do they live?
358
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:07,629
Those who wish to help others are
greatly respected within our culture.
359
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,833
They are encouraged
and helped in their goal.
360
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:15,350
They're clothed and fed,
and left to do their work.
361
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:19,109
It's a small price to pay
for the benefit of many.
362
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:21,880
I looked into a Narn mind.
Wasn't pretty.
363
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,958
Alien minds are a problem
if you're untrained.
364
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:30,029
Yes, I have heard this.
We do not all think the same way.
365
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:31,832
We... .
366
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:47,597
I think we should go.
367
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:52,112
- Don't you need some more time?
- No, I got a clear picture. Thanks.
368
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:03,435
Is there something going on
around here about a dead body?
369
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,431
Yes. Why?
370
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:11,114
I saw something about the body.
I know what happened to it.
371
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:14,278
Mr. Garibaldi, I need
to see you immediately!
372
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:52,637
Lights.
373
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,395
What do you think you're doing?
374
00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:01,031
Everywhere has been searched but here.
Where no one would dare to go!
375
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:02,918
Wrong.
376
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,917
I searched these quarters
with Delenn observing.
377
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:12,835
I wanted to make sure nobody was
sneaking around trying to pull a fast one.
378
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:14,956
You might want to try it sometime.
379
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:20,035
Escort him back to his quarters. We'll
continue the search without his help.
380
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:21,918
Will do.
381
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:30,640
I brought someone to see you.
Alisa Beldon. You'd better talk to her.
382
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:35,751
Miss Beldon?
383
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:39,072
Commander, there's something
you have to know.
384
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,272
When I was talking
to Ambassador Delenn...
385
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,113
...I looked inside her head.
386
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:48,518
And I saw something.
387
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,270
She covered it up real quick...
388
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,750
...but she knows
who took that Minbari body.
389
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,474
And she knows where it is.
390
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,439
- Ambassador.
- Good evening, commander.
391
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:12,749
Mr. Garibaldi.
392
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:17,835
- Shipping something home, ambassador?
- Just some personal possessions.
393
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,999
I think we need to talk.
394
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:43,512
Quite a trick.
395
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:47,798
Stealing Branmer's body and
cremating it without anyone noticing.
396
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,154
Why?
397
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:55,429
As a member of the religious caste,
I felt an obligation to Branmer.
398
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:59,070
As I told you,
he was a reluctant hero.
399
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:00,912
He only became a war leader...
400
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:04,311
...because he felt it was
necessary for the Minbari.
401
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:10,032
- And your obligation to him?
- A long, close friendship.
402
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:15,476
He told me that when he was called,
he wanted only a simple funeral.
403
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,871
He did not want to be
a monument to war.
404
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,071
Neroon and his Star Riders...
405
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:24,949
...subverted his wishes
with this display of his body.
406
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,749
I decided to carry out
Branmer's wishes.
407
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,798
His ashes are to be sent home.
408
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:36,988
They will be scattered in space
near our world.
409
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:41,631
Unfortunately, you and Mr. Garibaldi
have put that plan in jeopardy.
410
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,115
How could it have any more jeopardy?
411
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:47,431
Neroon is ready to start
the war because of this.
412
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:51,752
I believe I could have explained it
as a true religious mystery.
413
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:56,755
The transformation of Branmer's body
to take his place with the gods.
414
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,559
- But now... .
- Delenn, Neroon wants an answer.
415
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,076
You have it. What am I supposed to do?
Hide the facts?
416
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:08,268
- You've put us in a difficult situation.
- It's more difficult than you suspect.
417
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:13,116
You see, a rift between
the religious and warrior castes...
418
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:17,159
...began when our warriors
were ordered to surrender.
419
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:22,838
If what happened to the body were
to become general knowledge...
420
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,195
...it would further that rift.
421
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:28,909
Great. Just one question,
what about Neroon?
422
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:33,312
- I said we'd tell him what happened.
- Then we will do so.
423
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:37,473
If you will honor my situation,
I will honor yours.
424
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:44,033
It is regrettable, but I see
no choice. We will tell him the truth.
425
00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:47,000
But I will tell him my way.
426
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:56,071
You had no right to touch
the Shai Alit's body!
427
00:33:56,240 --> 00:34:00,119
- He was warrior caste by his father!
- Religious by his mother!
428
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:04,034
- You know which takes precedence.
- Star Riders will protest!
429
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:07,397
- I will lead the fight!
- You will do nothing!
430
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:12,396
You ignored his request to be cremated
and have his ashes put in space.
431
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,955
You disobeyed your war leader...
432
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:19,750
...one of the greatest of our religious
caste. You showed disrespect.
433
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,354
You had to display
the great warrior's body!
434
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:26,798
You had to have your military
spectacle! It stops here!
435
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,878
Or the Star Riders
will be destroyed...
436
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:36,479
...dishonored by your actions.
437
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:42,150
- Do you speak for yourself?
- I speak for the entire Grey Council.
438
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:47,593
I'd hoped to avoid this,
but your insistence on investigating...
439
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:49,478
...has left me no choice.
440
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:53,030
You will support my statement
that his body was transformed.
441
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,829
That is a direct order
from the Grey Council.
442
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:02,518
You will obey it, as you did
our order to end the war.
443
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:04,352
Do you understand?
444
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:11,318
Yes, I understand, Satai Delenn!
445
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,313
Is there anything else you want of me?
446
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,677
You will apologize
to Commander Sinclair...
447
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,230
...privately, for your behavior.
448
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:28,468
I will see to it that you
and the Star Riders...
449
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:34,272
...will not be punished or shamed
for your honoring of the Shai Alit.
450
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:40,072
Yes, Satai Delenn.
451
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:47,715
There was no cause for me
to attack you. Even less for me...
452
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:49,950
...to threaten this station.
453
00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:55,752
I am ashamed that my feelings for
the Shai Alit led me to act improperly.
454
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:59,151
There is no shame in wanting
to honor him, Neroon.
455
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,834
I fought on the Line against Branmer.
456
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:05,879
I saw his valor and leadership
firsthand.
457
00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:09,999
Because his body disappeared here...
458
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,755
...I feel some responsibility
toward the Minbari people.
459
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:18,079
There is no higher testimony
to a warrior's courage and skill...
460
00:36:18,240 --> 00:36:20,470
...than praise from his enemy.
461
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,234
I'd like to send that message
to your world...
462
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,231
...in a personal message...
463
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:27,960
...a testimony to the Shai Alit.
464
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:31,556
You will do this
as an Earthforce officer?
465
00:36:31,720 --> 00:36:34,951
And as commander of Babylon 5.
466
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,076
That is a great kindness.
467
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,070
We've fought long enough.
468
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,995
Maybe it's time we started
talking with one another.
469
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:48,517
Branmer was more significant than his
battles. Let the warrior caste...
470
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:54,357
...praise his courage in war. Let the
rest praise him for what he truly was.
471
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:56,033
A man of peace.
472
00:36:56,600 --> 00:37:00,036
You talk like a Minbari, commander.
473
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:04,716
Perhaps there was some small wisdom
in letting your species survive.
474
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:06,712
We like to think so.
475
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,948
Until another day, then.
476
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,556
I thought you'd be seeing
Neroon's cruiser off.
477
00:37:23,720 --> 00:37:27,633
- I've seen cruisers before.
- Me too.
478
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,316
There is someone on this station
who interests me.
479
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:40,517
Alisa Beldon has a most unusual
psi quality for a human.
480
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:42,750
So I'm told.
481
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:44,998
She impressed me greatly.
482
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:50,314
When she touched my mind, I detected
confusion in her about her future.
483
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:56,476
She doesn't care for the opportunities
being offered by Earth or Narn.
484
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,471
And?
485
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:01,189
Commander?
486
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:06,193
Will Talia and lvanova be
teed off if I go with the Minbari?
487
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:12,152
In order, yes and no. I don't need to
be a telepath to figure that one out.
488
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:16,916
Alisa could help with communication
between humans and Minbari.
489
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:21,232
We suffer a lack there,
as you know, commander.
490
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,119
The future in exchange for the past.
491
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:26,669
I think that's very workable.
492
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:39,995
- Thank you again for helping me.
- You made your own decision.
493
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:44,551
You showed me the choices. This
is best. I'm used to being on my own.
494
00:38:44,720 --> 00:38:48,349
Psi Corps wouldn't have
worked for me. And the Narn... .
495
00:38:49,240 --> 00:38:52,835
- Even though the price was right.
- No price is high enough...
496
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,434
...to be surrounded by Narns.
497
00:38:56,400 --> 00:39:00,632
I thought I'd stop by and wish you
well. I don't agree with this...
498
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,839
...but the commander's right.
You could help with the Minbari.
499
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:07,838
Maybe you'll learn a trick or two
and come back and teach us.
500
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,879
- Thanks, I might do that.
- As long as you write once in a while.
501
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:13,712
I will.
502
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,554
I won't forget you.
503
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:28,796
I think I want to go the rest
of the way by myself.
504
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,837
- Goodbye.
- Bye.
505
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:32,752
Goodbye.
506
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:41,879
- I think she'll be all right.
- I think so too.
507
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,315
Are you busy right now?
508
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,199
No, not right now.
509
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:51,069
I wasn't exactly polite
to you over this whole thing.
510
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:54,269
Yeah, well, we both got a little hot.
511
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:57,910
How about if I buy you
a drink to make up for it?
512
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:02,553
Okay, but I go on duty soon
so it's gonna have to be coffee.
513
00:40:02,720 --> 00:40:04,358
Of course.
514
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:08,509
Hi.
515
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:09,749
Hi.
516
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:13,595
- Just wanted to say safe journey.
- Thanks.
517
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,960
There's something
I've been wondering.
518
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:22,240
When you looked into Delenn's mind,
did you see anything unusual?
519
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:28,790
One other thing. A word, "chrysalis. "
I don't know what it means.
520
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:33,590
- It's a cocoon, I think.
- Cocoon? That's weird.
521
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:36,593
She shut down real fast
when I touched that.
522
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,196
- Why would she want to hide that?
- I don't know.
523
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:42,794
Now boarding in docking bay 4.
524
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:45,110
I guess I have to go.
525
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:48,791
Good luck.
526
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:51,198
Thanks.
527
00:40:58,240 --> 00:41:00,071
"Chrysalis. "
528
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:45,109
