Stop program.

Uh...open.

Forgive me for disturbing you
in your quarters, Mr. Garibaldi.

But I've had urgent orders
from Ambassador Delenn.

What can I do for the Minbari?

Shaal Mayan will shortly
be returning here.

In light of the incident
which occurred

during her last visit
to Babylon 5

Ambassador Delenn would like

a full security detail
assigned to her.

Good idea. Give me her itinerary
and I'll arrange it.

Thank you.

E-excuse me, what sort
of machine is this?

Well, it's an Earth antique.
Mint condition.

The Kawasaki Ninja
ZX-11, vintage 1992.

And we're talkin' liquid-cooled
dual overhead cams

16-valve, a 1052 CC,
in-line four

twin Ram Air induction,
6-speed gearbox

and 320 millimeter front disks

with four piston calipers.

It's the best performance bike
of its time.

Or it will be
when I figure out

how to put
the damn thing together.

Well, it sounds most impressive.
Uh, what exactly does it do?

What does it do?
It's a motorcycle.

You ride it!

Huh?

Ah, a vehicle.

'Oh, it's more
than just a vehicle.'

This baby's a piece
of Earth history.

History.
That is an interest of mine.

Yeah, well, I've been building
this little piece of history

for the last five years

'scrounging parts
wherever I could.'

'Now I've got 'em all
if I could just'

figure out
where they all go.

I won this manual
in a blackjack game

but doesn't do any much good,
it's in Japanese.

Given some time
to study this manual

perhaps I could be of
assistance.

Well, at this point, I'll take
all the help I can get.

- Garibaldi.
- 'Mr. Garibaldi.'

'Please report
to the briefing room.'

On my way. Well, duty calls.

History calls.

What do you think?

Most of the personnel
will be no trouble.

- This one, however..
- Anything you can't handle?

I don't have to handle it.
Her record's spotless.

There's no need to include her.

That's not your decision,
and she will be included.

Records don't always
tell the whole story.

That's one of the reasons
you're here, Mr. Gray, remember?

As you wish.

When do we begin?

As always, Mr. Gray,
when the time is right.

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 peacefully.

It's a port of call,
home away from home

for diplomats, hustlers,
entrepreneurs and wanderers.

Humans and aliens, wrapped in

two million,
five hundred thousand 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.

Mars command confirmed that
the attack on station Phobos

is tied to a series
of terrorist incidents

directed against Earthforce.

- Free Mars?
- They're not sure.

In the last year independence
movements have sprung up

all over the colony, some even
more radical than Free Mars.

Earthforce is concerned
that Babylon 5

will become a source of arms
for the groups and so am I.

'It'll be difficult to stop.'

According to our trade
agreements, aliens have

the right to sell arms on B-5

as long as all transfers
take place off-station.

That's why Earth Central
has implemented an embargo

on all unauthorized
arms shipments to Mars colony.

We can't stop a legitimate sale,
but we can notify

Earthforce of any ship
carrying weapons there.

I want all cargos and flight
logs thoroughly checked.

Also watch for known arms
dealers and smugglers

and track of any recent arrivals
from Mars colony.

Will do.

So, how long have you been
stationed here, Officer Welch?

Since B-5 went online.

- Do you like it?
- It beats a kick in the teeth.

How about Commander Sinclair?

Does he beat a kick
in the teeth?

- Do I know you?
- Aaron Franks.

Quartermaster Corporation.

We're hoping
to supply the station

and I'm trying to find out
everything I can.

Well, I'm trying
to eat my lunch. Quietly.

Sorry to bother you.

Station, Assistant Lou Welch.

Patch me through
to Mr. Garibaldi.

'And the last gasoline-powered
motorcycle was built in 2035.'

'In popular Earth culture,
the motorcycle was often seen'

'as a symbol of independence
of spirit, freedom'

'sexual prowess and rebellion.'

"Sexual prowess and rebellion."

- Hey, Jax.
- Mr. Garibaldi.

That guy who was just talking
to you, what did he want?

Uh, he said his name
was Aaron Franks.

Um, he was asking questions
about Commander Sinclair

how often he stopped by here,
who he drank with?

It didn't make much sense, but
that's nothing new around here.

Thanks.

Commander, I think
we have a problem.

Some guy named Aaron Franks
has been asking

a lot of odd questions
all over the station.

- What kind of questions?
- About you. About the station.

He arrived three days ago
from LeGrange 2

with another man
named Harriman Gray.

According to their credentials,
they're business agents

representing
Quartermaster Corporation.

I checked, and as far
as I can tell, they're legit.

QM Corporation is an independent
military supplier.

They could be looking
for a contract.

Or they could have the perfect
cover for arms smugglers.

LeGrange 2 is a stone's throw
from Mars colony.

Have a talk with Mr. Franks.
But walk softly.

The last thing we need
is a corporate lawsuit.

Yes?

'This is Security Chief
Garibaldi.'

'I'd like to speak to Aaron
Franks.'

He's not in.

'In that case,
I'd like to speak to you.'

Uh, a moment, please.

Open.

Mr. Gray?

Is there something I can
help you with something?

You're and Mr. Franks,
are business agents

for Quartermaster Corporation,
is that correct?

Yes, we're hoping to get
a military

supply contract with Babylon 5.

Then why haven't you spoken
to Commander Sinclair?

You've been here for three days.

- Aaron, this is--
- Mr. Garibaldi. Very good.

- You know me?
- Intimately.

- Fix you a drink?
- I don't drink.

Really? Good.

It's a vile habit when abused.

It makes a soldier weak.
Gets him in a lot of trouble.

You're starting
to irritate me, Mr. Franks

and I don't like being
irritated. It gives me gas.

The name isn't Franks.

It's Colonel Ari Ben Zayn,
Earthforce Internal Affairs.

- You're Eyes?
- I'm an internal investigator.

Mr. Gray is a military
specialist from Psi Corps.

We're here to make a special
investigation

of Babylon 5 command staff.

'Recent events on Mars colony
and elsewhere'

'have shown the need
for increased scrutiny'

'of all off-world
installations.'

Similar investigations
are taking place

on all our outposts,
we must know

who is loyal to Earthforce
and who isn't.

As commander of Babylon 5,
I personally vouch

for the loyalty
of every member of my staff.

And I resent your tactics,
you have no right

to snoop around the station
without my knowledge.

I have every right, commander!

My authority comes directly
from the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

'I'm not here
to persecute anyone.'

I just want to ask
some questions

and clarify a few details.

It's all fairly routine.

And what part does Psi Corp
play in this routine?

Regulations prohibit
the use of telepaths

in commander-level
investigation.

There are new regulations,
Lieutenant Commander Ivanova.

And under that all staff must
submit to telepathic scan

as part
of an official investigation.

- Command staff as well.
- The hell I will.

Psi Corp may be running
the rest of the world--

Ivanova.

I'll check these
new regulations, colonel.

Meanwhile, I'll have someone
show you

'and Mr. Gray to new quarters
in Blue Sector.'

- Mr. Garibaldi will escort me.
- Mr. Garibaldi has duties.

Not anymore, I'm assigning him

to my staff for the duration
of this investigation.

- What?
- I like his style.

As chief of security,
Mr. Garibaldi is essential

to the operation
of this station.

Is there some problem
with Babylon 5 security?

You made no mention of it
in your last report.

No, there's no problem--

'Then Garibaldi's second can
handle it for a few days.'

I need him to expedite
this matter.

I'll present you with
an interview schedule shortly.

You may carry on, commander.

Mr. Gray.

Mr. Garibaldi.

A pleasure to meet you all.

By God, if I ever find out
who's behind this circus act!

I will not submit to
a telepathic scan, commander.

It's against my person
and my principles.

I don't like it any better than
you do.

Enough people have played with
my brain already this year.

Return to duty.
And I won't let it happen.

To either of us.

Computer, subject.
Earthforce law.

'Accessing files.'

You're not happy
about this investigation

are you, Mr. Garibaldi?

Do I have the colonel's
permission to speak freely?

Getting the truth is my job.

I expect to hear it
whenever you talk to me.

Well, in that case,
I think this is

the biggest pile of horse hockey
I ever saw.

Who the hell's running
Earthforce, Abbott and Costello?

Abbott and Costello,
I like them.

I require all your security
files regarding Babylon 5 staff

including classified
and confidential files.

- You'll have it in the morning.
- Tonight, Mr. Garibaldi!

Do it personally.

When they're compiled

bring them here immediately.

Yes, sir.

- M-Mr. Garibaldi.
- Mr. Lennier?

Something wrong
with the security

arrangements for Shaal Mayan's
visit?

Oh, no, no, they're
quite satisfactory. Thank you.

I-I wish to speak with you
about the, the bike.

- What about it?
- Well, I believe..

I could help you assemble it.
Quite easily.

Although there are few points
that I'm confused about.

Mr. Lennier,
I'm too busy for this right now.

Well, then perhaps I could
begin the work for you.

With Ambassador Delenn off
station, my duties are small.

And it would be good
to be of use.

- I don't think...
- I must admit, Mr. Garibaldi.

I've become fascinated
by this vehicle.

Do you realize
that it was a symbol

of masculinity in your society
at one time?

Okay, okay, fine, I'll clear
you for access to my quarters.

- But if you damage anything--
- I assure you.

I will exercise extreme caution.

And thank you, very much.

Computer,
this is Michael Garibaldi

chief of security.
Confirm voice ID.

'Confirmed. Command?'

Transfer all files pertaining to
Earthforce military personnel

stationed on Babylon 5
to crystal port.

Include secure files.

'Please input proper code
and password.'

- Peekaboo.
- 'Commencing.'

'Transfer will take 1.4 hours.'

'Sector 2, we're all green
down here.'

While that's working,
load interweb program.

'Parameters?'

All info on Colonel Ari Ben
Zayn, Earthforce Internal

and Mr. Harriman Gray,
Psi Corp military specialist.

The usual sources.
Code all responses Gold-2.

'Acknowledged.
Commencing interweb link.'

'Confirmed, Epsilon. Clear to
begin zero-G cargo transfer.'

Lieutenant commander?

Civilians are not allowed
on the observation dome

without authorization from
Commander Sinclair. Please go.

Well, as the colonel's liaison
I have every right to be here.

So relax, I just wanted to look
at the stars for a moment.

They never lose their beauty,
do they?

- Mr. Gray, I am very busy.
- Lieutenant commander.

I'm aware of your hostility
toward Psi Corps

and the reason for it.

- And I sympathize.
- You do? How nice.

I shall send you a card
on your birthday.

You know, when I was a boy

I dreamed of
being a combat pilot.

I built models of every space
fighter that was available.

I collected squadron patches.
It was all I ever wanted to be.

When I was 16, I applied
to Air Dome and I was accepted.

And then my talent manifested
itself the first month

and telepaths aren't allowed
in regular military service.

- So I was expelled.
- I'm so sorry.

It's not easy to have
your dreams snatched away

just because you're different.

And I didn't take it very well.
Then the Corps came.

They said I could still serve
in Earthforce

as a Psi Corps liaison.

A boyhood dream come true.
I'm in tears.

It saved my life.
Gave me purpose again.

And granted it's not the same
as your kind of soldiering

but part of a dream
is better than none..

Is there a point to this story,
Mr. Gray?

I just want you to know
I love the Force.

And respect the people
like you who serve in it.

A pretty speech. Did the colonel
write this for you?

No, but he's going to insist
that everyone be scanned.

And it's just easier
if you accept that.

Now, I give you my word, I'll
respect your personal privacy.

The only thoughts
I'll be looking for

are those concerned wit
h your duties in Earthforce.

And given your record,
I'm certain

you have nothing to fear.

Mr. Gray, I'm grateful Psi Corps
has given you a purpose in life.

When that purpose includes
scanning my mind

to prove my loyalty,
it's not only invasion

of my privacy but my honor!

As for fear, if you
enter my mind for any reason

I will twist your head off
and use it for a chamber pot!

If you'll excuse me.

'These Vorlons have been trouble
ever since they arrived.'

Yeah, well, they're like that.
Real fun guys.

And yet Commander Sinclair
made no protest

against their actions
in the Deathwalker affair.

Odd, don't you think?

Protests are
as much use with the Vorlons

as fairy wings
on a cement truck.

If you have anything else to ask
about the commander's decisions

I suggest you ask him, sir.

I intend to. At 1200.
Inform him.

Then get some sack time.
I'll want you there too.

If I knew who God was,
I'd thank her.

Mr. Garibaldi, you look like
the back end of an Orion slich.

Oh, and a gracious
good morning to you, commander.

I've been up all night
with Colonel Ben Hitler.

He wants to interview you
at 1200.

Good, the sooner we get this
lunacy disposed off

the quicker we can get back
to doing our job.

Look, this is no
routine investigation, Jeff.

Ben Zayn's questioning
everything that's happened

in the past year
from Raghesh III, Deathwalker

the Darker Strike,
Jason Ironheart

'to the sabotage attempt
during the president's visit.'

'He's questioning every major
command decision you've made.'

Let him, they're all
on the record

and they've all been approved.

That won't stop him.
You know how Eyes work.

They're like judge and jury.

'They twist the facts
to their own satisfaction'

and always assume you have
something to hide.

- Maybe we do.
- Explain.

'Look, I know you're
a by-the-book guy, Jeff'

but let's face it.

We've rewritten the book
a few times to make B-5 work.

And made a few enemies
along the way.

You know what's happening
back on Earth

on Mars, all over the alliance.

The president's being
attacked on all sides.

'Off-world groups are screaming
for independence.'

Earth Central's falling apart

anti-alien groups are spreading
their poison

everywhere on and on and on.

Guys like Ben Zayn thrive
in that kinda climate.

'All the more reason
to stand up to him, Michael.'

Earth Alliance may have problems
but they can't be solved

by trampling on human dignity.

Yeah. What about Psi Corps?

Ironheart warned us about them
pulling the strings.

- I'll deal with them too.
- Alright, look.

This time,
you walk soft, Jeff.

I've seen this kind of
witch-hunt before.

It can get ugly. Um..

I'm checking a few sources
to try to find some data

on these two guys,
just in case it does.

I appreciate it, Michael.
We'll come through it alright.

- Now, get some sleep.
- Oh, I intend to.

Ah, Mr. Garibaldi,
I was just about to embark

on the mysteries
of the fuel injection system.

- Would you care to join me?
- 'Well, do me a favor.'

Embark on a journey
to your quarters

so I can get some sleep.

Please forgive me,
my enthusiasm for this project

has made me insensitive
to your needs.

I will leave at once.

When may I begin the work again?

If I kill him,
I would start a war.

Come back after 1200.

Domo Arigato.

Not bad.

Susan!

'Susan Ivanova!'

'Susan, here.'

'Momma?'

Suzotchka.

Will it make the voices go away?

No, but it will make them
sing like birds, Sofie.

A shame if you refuse
to cooperate.

Momma, don't let them do it.
Don't let them!

Don't interfere, soldier.
The colonel insists.

Momma!

Only one way out.

Only one way.

Momma? Momma!

She'll be fine.
Now, do you hear the birds?

A real shame.

Momma, it's me Susan.

Only one way out.

Only one way.

Momma?

Lights.

'Article 35 of the Earthforce
code states'

'that a hearing must be held
before five senior officers.'

- 'In some instances..'
- Come.

My apologies, commander,
but this matter can't wait.

What's this about?

I wish to resign my commission
effective immediately.

What?

I had a talk with Mr. Gray,
last night.

He said that the colonel
will insist

that I be scanned.

I cannot allow that, and this is
the only way to avoid it.

Without putting you
in a bad position.

Forget it. I refuse to accept
your resignation.

I'm within my rights.

I won't have the Psi Corps
probing me

like some sort
of a lab specimen.

And I won't have you ruin your
career or leave Babylon 5.

You're too important to me.

Besides, I've found a way
to avoid the scans

within the regulations.

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

Uh, may I borrow your PPG

to shoot myself
squarly in the head?

That won't be necessary.
This time.

Thank you, commander.

- 'Susan.'
- Yes?

'Why are so you afraid
of being scanned?'

Surely, your mother
must have made contact

with your mind
at one time or another.

Yes, she did.

You can't imagine
what it's like..

...to share your
own mother's love for you.

To feel it in your thoughts.

No one's ever been that close
to me, commander.

And no one must ever
intrude upon that memory.

Especially Psi Corps.

Aren't you tired
of studying that file?

Sinclair is a complex man.

I need to know
everything about him.

Including his secrets.

You know Psi Corps rules
prohibit deep scans--

Don't be naive, Harriman.

Psi Corps want this
as much as I do.

Sinclair got one
of your people killed.

Mr. Bester will appreciate
anything that you can turn up.

Bester?

- Colonel.
- Commander, please take a seat.

I will, as soon as Mr. Gray
leaves the room.

You did check the regulations,
didn't you, commander?

Thoroughly, I also checked
Earthforce law and the opinion

of the Senate Military Bureaus
to the interpretation of them.

They clearly state
that telepathic scans

are allowed only to determine
the truth of specific charges

brought in an internal
investigation.

They are not meant as a blanket
for loyalty checks.

Interpreting regulations
for a senior officer

could be considered
insubordination.

No, sir, I am simply exercising
command privilege

to officially question
a new regulation

as outlined by Article 35
of the Earthforce Code.

In case you're not
familiar with it, it requires

a hearing
before five senior officers.

Until such a hearing is held,
I'm within my rights

to refuse a scan on myself
or on any member of my crew.

I believe that the commander
is correct about the regulation.

Even Psi Corps doesn't consider
it a carte blanche rule.

I don't remember asking
for your opinion, Mr. Gray.

Very well, commander. We'll play
your game for the moment.

Harriman, you're dismissed.

Mr. Garibaldi, you will join me
as an official witness

to this interview.

'We wouldn't want
the commander to feel'

'his rights
were being violated.'

Commander?

We will begin with your actions
during the Raghesh III incident.

Hi.

Commander Ivanova,
may I sit down?

Aren't you supposed to be
peeking into someone's mind?

You're very charming,
in an odd sort of way.

Uh, the fact is,
I've been dismissed.

It seems Commander Sinclair
knows the regulations very well.

Well, the commander prizes
knowledge and honesty.

So I noticed.

I will long savor the look
on the colonel's face.

Not many people are willing to
stand up to him.

It was very refreshing.

I'm curious. You're not like
most Psi Corp people.

You don't seem overly fond
of the colonel.

I'm not.

He's efficient,
but he lacks compassion.

Sometimes I wonder
if he's even human.

As for Psi Corp,
I doubt you really know

any of our people well,
especially Miss Winters.

- You're scanning me!
- I'm sorry.

The thought of Miss Winters
was loud in your mind

when I mentioned Psi Corps,
I couldn't help but pick it up.

Please forgive me.

I am surprised
you were aware of it. Unless..

Of course, she must have been
in your mind numerous times

before she was given
the sleepers. Your mother..

You are never
to discuss my mother! Ever!

Is that clear?

- Ivanova.
- 'Lieutenant commander.'

'You're needed
in the observation dome.'

'You allocated 1.3 million
credits from'

the military budget to settle
an illegal civilian strike.

You consider that
a responsible act?

I was given authority
to end the strike

by any means necessary and we
had no use for the credits.

- Sinclair.
- 'Commander.'

'We've had a further development
on one of those arms deal.'

This is Colonel Ben Zayn,
Commander Sinclair

is in the middle
of an investigation

and cannot be disturbed,
whatever it is

lieutenant commander, handle it.

I've had enough of this. Your
insinuations are bad enough.

'But when you interfere with
the operation of this station--'

Sit down, commander.
You haven't been dismissed.

The hell I will. You have a
complaint against me, make it.

Otherwise this interview
is over.

Stand fast, mister!

I've seen plenty like you.

Hotshots, promoted out
through the ranks

without any real leadership
ability.

You think because you fought
on the Line

normal military standards
don't apply to you.

'Well, think again, hero.'

As of this moment, I am
relieving you of command

pending a full inquiry
before a military tribunal.

- What?
- You heard me.

I'm assuming command
of Babylon 5.

As of now, I'm in charge.

- You son of a--
- Whoa, whoa, whoa. Easy, Jeff.

He's trying to bait you and he's
hoping you swallow it whole.

What's your justification
for this action?

Beyond the facts that I am
working with direct authority

of the Joint Chiefs,
I also outrank you.

And Article 52, "A commander
found to be working

"against the best interests
of Earthforce may be

summarily removed from his post
by a superior officer."

Oh, give me a break.
You can't prove that.

Yes, I can, Mr. Garibaldi.
With the help of Mr. Gray.

As I am bringing specific
charges, the regulations

on telepathic scan now apply.

We will re-convene here
in one hour

to continue this investigation.

One more thing.

Mr. Sinclair will be confined
to his quarters.

He's not to take part
in command action

or have any further contact

with Babylon 5 staff,
yourself included.

Understood, Mr. Garibaldi?

Things are worse
than I thought, Michael.

I'll have to go directly to HQ.

See if your sources have
uncovered anything on Ben Zayn.

But first get to the dome.

Ivanova.

I'll expect reports
from all your stations

by 1700 sharp.

That's all for now.

Mr. Garibaldi,
what the hell is going on?

- I wish I had a clue.
- Lieutenant Commander.

At 1500,
Mr. Garibaldi will escort

you to Blue 8
for a formal inquiry.

Mr. Gray will also be present.

I'll be in my quarters
until then.

I don't know
what this guy's after

but he's pulling out
all the stops to get it.

I won't submit to a scan.

He'll charge you
with insubordination.

And I'll be replaced and
dishonorably discharged.

It's a very Russian ending.
I should've expected it.

Station 1, ask Major Atambe
to take my post.

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

Ivanova!

Hey, hey, hey, wait up.

Am I wrong
or are you leaving your post?

Yes, I am.

I've always been proud
to be a member of Earthforce

but right now,
I'd sooner serve the Minbari.

At least they've got
a sense of honor.

Look...you once offered to buy
me a drink, Garibaldi.

If that offer still stands,
I think I could use one.

Yeah, yeah, sure.

I'll tell you what, I'll meet
you in the casino in 10 minutes.

I gotta check
something out first.

In the meantime,
just stay cool, alright?

Alright?

Okay. We can beat this
together. Somehow.

Okay, I'll take care of it.

These are difficult times,
Sinclair.

Now you've ruffled some feathers
in command in the senate.

Something like this
was bound to happen.

You have the authority
to stop it.

The president's Trade
and Immigration Act

comes up for a vote soon,
he's gonna need

all the support he can get.

If I intervene in this matter,
it'll cost him dearly.

What?

Are you serious?

These investigations have the
backing of powerful factions.

Given the situation
on Mars and elsewhere

we agreed to go along with them.

We can't back out now.

Look, we know you're doing a
good job out there

'and I'm sure you'll be
completely exonerated'

if any charge
is brought against you.

And I promise
I'll do all I can to help

when the time is right.

Good luck, Jeff.

- Come on, baby.
- Alright!

Yeah! Three nebulas in a row.

I am hot tonight. Pay up.

Come on, I'll buy you a drink.

Another one.
Hey, hey, careful.

Ooh, I am hot.
Check out the cute commander.

- Cute?
- Oh, yeah.

'Garibaldi, you're early.'

I picked up something
on the interweb.

It looks like you and Ben Zayn
have something in common.

- What?
- Well..

You were both considered
for command of Babylon 5.

Now he was in the top 10,
but you were..

Yeah, well,
somewhere below that.

Anyway, you also have
a mutual friend. Bester.

The Psi Corps?

He assigned Gray to Ben Zayn.

He and the colonel are buddies.

Remember Bester saying
he'd see you again

after what happened
with Ironheart?

'Yeah, well,
I smell a con job here.'

I'd bet on it, Bester said I
hadn't heard the last of him

'after his partner was killed
on Babylon 5.'

Maybe the colonel
is his way of getting revenge.

But what can I do about it?
This is all circumstantial.

- It proves nothing unless--
- Garibaldi.

'Chief, we have a big problem
in the casino.'

- 'A big problem.'
- Ivanova.

I forgot all about her.
I'm on my way.

Ivanova.

Are you going to arrest me,
Garibaldi?

No way, I wanna live
to see the future.

I just wanna talk with you

and reason with you

recite a few choice passages
from my favorite reading.

- For as long as it takes.
- You don't play fair.

- Okay, I surrender.
- Alright. Oxy pill.

This'll help you
pull yourself together.

What? For my court-martial?

Commander's last shot.
Clean up this trash.

- Commander.
- Mr. Gray.

I thought I'd find you here.

Talia Winters says most
telepaths like to

feel the acoustics of a room
before they perform a scan.

The talent is a delicate thing.

You'd be surprised
what may affect it.

I imagine
you're very good at it.

That's probably why Mr. Bester
assigned you to this job.

You must be mistaken,
I don't know him

at least not personally.

Odd. He and the colonel
are very good friends.

Maybe you're scanning
the wrong people.

Harriman, take your place.

Sinclair, if you please.

All recorders on.

Send in Lieutenant Commander
Ivanova and Mr. Garibaldi.

This interview will cite
specific charges

'against Mr. Sinclair'

'and he and his staff will
submit to telepathic scan'

to determine the validity
of these charges. Mr. Gray.

I won't be scanning you deeply

but only verifying your
responses to specific questions.

It won't hurt unless
you try to resist it.

Please relax,
answer truthfully

and try to avoid strong emotion.

Will you be scanning
the colonel as well?

Now, what're you playing at?

You're the commander
of Babylon 5 now.

The regulation says all involved
parties on staff may be scanned.

And you're involved, colonel,
up to your neck.

That will be all, mister.

You're here to answer questions.

The intent of a question
is sometimes as important

as the answer, for instance

if I were to ask you
why you turned a routine

investigation into a personal
hunt for my scalp..

You flatter yourself, Sinclair.

Do I?
It must've stuck in your craw

when you were passed over
for command of Babylon 5.

'Passed over
for a "hotshot without'

'any real leadership ability."'

Sinclair, I'm warning you.

There was nothing
you could do, of course.

Until your friend Bester
thought of a way

to get even for you
and for himself.

- You're insane.
- Maybe I am.

Maybe it's crazy
to think that Earthforce

still respects honor,
freedom and human dignity

when a maggot like you can spit

on some of the best officers
I've ever served.

'All for the sake
of your own ambition.'

By God, man, I'll have you
before execution squad for this.

I faced death on the Line.

Where were you, colonel?

Picking trash
out of garbage cans

to prove who was loyal
and who wasn't?

I got this leading people

into battle, Sinclair.

In Israel, on New Jerusalem,
Cyrus 3 and a hundred more.

I saw more death than you could
ever conceive of

but I won my battles
and I deserved this command.

I deserved it!

But thanks to those
damn Minbari, you got it!

Yes, I know all about you
and the Minbari.

But you won't be doing
their bidding much longer.

I'm commander of Babylon 5 now!

And all your lies
won't change that.

'It's you who's lying, colonel.'

I can feel the hatred in you.
It's sick, deep, filthy.

You're in my mind, you little..

- Stay where you are!
- Colonel, it's over.

It's over for you, Sinclair.

You and these misfits
you call soldiers

'I'll have you all up
before a tribunal.'

- Go ahead, captain.
- He can't get all of us.

Famous last words
from a trio of mutineers.

Colonel. Pain.

I assume the investigation
is concluded?

Hm.

Behold..

...the Ninja ZX-11.

- What've you done?
- You are not pleased?

I said you could work on it
a little, not finish it.

- I do not understand.
- I wanted to build it myself.

It was kind of a purpose
in my life.

Now it's..

...done.

I have made a grievous error.

Please forgive me.

Uh, never mind.

You did a beautiful job.

It's great, isn't it? Huh?

- It's too bad we can't ride it.
- Oh, it's quite rideable.

Don't tell me you came up
with some gas too?

Gasoline is harmful to both
living beings

and the atmosphere
as your people discovered.

I have installed a Minbari
power source instead.

Clean and efficient.

- Get out of here.
- Yes, of course.

No, no, no, wait, wait, wait.
I didn't mean go, I meant..

Never mind.
Give me a hand with this, huh?

I never thought I'd be grateful
to a member of Psi Corps.

I hope this affair doesn't
turn out badly for Mr. Gray.

He'll be alright,
the record clearly shows

the colonel overstepped his
bounds and a psychiatric scan

should confirm
his mental state is unstable.

And Mr. Bester?

Mr. Bester is not the type to
come too far out of the shadows.

And there are bound to be some
questions raised over this.

It's good to have things
back to normal.
