All language subtitles for Babylon.5.S03E17.1080p.AMZN.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.H.264-NTb_Subtitles01_Unnamed.ENG

Previously on "Babylon 5.."

It has waited
locked and sealed

'for over 900 years.'

'How did he know
that you would be here?'

How did he know your name?

'They're killing us!'

'Can anyone hear me?
They're killing us!'

At this moment, the Great Machine is using all its power

to enlarge the temporal rift
in Sector 14.

We must take Babylon 4
1000 years into the past

and help defeat
the Shadows in the last war.

If we fail,
the Shadow fleet will survive

and Babylon 5
will be destroyed.

So that's what I
picked up in C-and-C

my voice in this alternate
future calling out for help?

'I repeat,
we are under attack!'

'The captain's dead.
Defense grid is down.'

They're boarding us. They're
coming in all over the place.

We must place a homing device

in the central power core
of Babylon 4.

Once that's done, we can begin
moving it through time.

These will keep you
from drifting.

Also protect you.

Time distortion
can do terrible harm.

- John!
- No!

Time stabilizer damaged.

He is unstuck in time.

Welcome back
from the abyss, Sheridan.

Just in time to die.

If we don't follow-through,
then Sheridan went through

all this for nothing.

Putting the future
back on track

may be our only chance
to save him.

During your little war,
you drove away the Shadows.

Oh, yes! But you did not think
to clean up your mess.

'There's the legacy
of your war.'

The price we paid
when you abandoned us

to the enemies
you escaped from.

But this couldn't happen

not in this amount of time.

What year is this?

This is the last year..

...and the last day

and the last hour
of your life.

'Seventeen years since you began
your great crusade.'

'Seventeen..'

I am tired.

Take him back to his cell.

And, Sheridan..

...make your peace

with whatever Gods you worship.

You will meet them
next time I send for you.

'I cannot recall my world'

from what it has become.

But I can thank you properly

for your role in it.

How long until the scanners
are back online?

Oh, we figure another hour,
hour and a half.

Any word on that explosion?

MaintBot reports
are coming in right now.

It's definitely
thermonuclear in origin.

Alright, I want every inch
of that blast area searched

and double all patrols
inside the station

in case anyone tries
to breach the hull.

'We need to find
an access panel.'

Usually they're sealed up

once the station goes
operational.

This place just went online

So, with any luck, there should
be a couple still open.

Sorry,
I don't believe in luck.

Well, luck's about
the only thing

we've got on our side right now.

Sure as hell don't have much
of anything else.

Marcus? Oh, hell.

Freeze!

The Babylon project was our
last, best hope for peace.

It failed.

But in the year
of the Shadow war

it became something greater

our last, best hope
for victory.

The year is 2260.

The place "Babylon 5."

- What was that?
- What was what?

You said move!
How'd you know they were coming?

Didn't, but right now would be
the worst time to be discovered

so it was logical
that it would happen now.

Like I said,
I don't believe in luck.

On the other hand..

Carry this, Zathras.
Fix this, Zathras.

Poor Zathras.
No one listen to Zathras.

In fact no one.

Hmm?

Oh.

Oh..

This will do. But we'll need
to clear the place out first.

- 'Team one to team two. Ready?'
- Ready. Stand by.

Alright, let's see
if this works.

What is it?

I'm not sure.
It was the strangest feeling.

I think the way
you describe it is..

...as if someone
had just walked over my grave.

Who, who is it?

'John? John?'

- Delenn!
- John.

Delenn..

...what are you doing here?

I didn't tell them anything.

They tried to make me,
but I didn't.

There's nothing
they can do to me.

They know that now,
so they say they're allowing us

one last moment
together before..

What?

It's alright, John.

I accepted this fate
a long time ago.

They cannot harm me.

I'm not afraid.

Not if you are with me.

- Our son is safe.
- Son?

That's all that matters.

John, I love you.

That's got it.
Let's go.

'Hull breach in this area.'

- 'Evacuate immediately.'
- 'Come on, let's go!'

'Pressure doors dropping.'

Pressure doors are down,
we've got this area

completely to ourselves
till they can burn through.

- Figure about an hour.
- It'll do.

- Let's get the equipment.
- Alright.

Delenn honey, just listen to me.

This may not make any sense

but I am not supposed
to be here.

I'm not really here.

The last thing I remember,
I was on theWhite Star

and-and my time stabilizer
was hit and..

...suddenly I was here.

In Valen's name..

...it's true, isn't it?

I can see it
in your eyes.

You told me long ago

that you had seen this moment in
our future, but until now, I..

I never really believed.

John..

...there's so much
ahead of you.

So many changes,
so much pain and grief.

I look in your eyes now,
and I see the innocence

that went away
so many years ago.

But then, you don't know

any of what's happened,
do you?

I...I...I..

From what Londo said..

...I get the impression
that we won the war..

...but not completely.

The war is never
completely won.

There are always new battles to
be fought against the darkness.

Only the names change.

But we, we achieved everything

we set out to achieve.

We created something that will
endure for a thousand years.

But the price, John..

...the terrible,
terrible price.

I didn't think I would see you
again before the end.

Now, Delenn..

...is there anything that
I can do to prevent this?

I mean,
there's still a chance.

No, this future
can only be changed

by surrendering
to the Shadows

and that price
is too high to pay.

But we have a son?

Yes. We have David.

- David?
- David.

Out! Now!

Close enough.

You will excuse me
if I do not stand.

I have had
considerable to drink.

It is..

...the only way
that we can be alone.

We do not wish to wake it.

Wake what?

Then you do not know.

You cannot see it
while it is awake.

We all have our keepers,
you see.

I gave a very good
performance.

Yes.

It was satisfied.

Doesn't care
why I do what I do..

...as long as I do it.

As long as you are dead.

It cannot hold
its liquor, you see.

'I have learned'

that if I drink just enough

I can put it to sleep
for a few minutes.

A few minutes where

I am in charge of myself again.

But the few minutes have been
growing shorter and shorter.

So, we do not have much time.

My life...is almost over.

My world, all I hoped for, gone.

You two...are my last chance..

...for this place..

...for my people..

...for my own redemption.

'There is a ship
hidden behind the palace.'

My guard will take you there.

In exchange
for your lives..

...all I ask is that you
and your allies..

...help to free my people.

I can do nothing more for them.

'Go now.'

'Quickly.'

You do not have much time.

I can...feel it
beginning to wake up.

Hurry. Go on!

You are there,
my old friend?

Yes.

They will never
make it out alive, unless..

You see, my keeper
will awaken any second

and it will alert the others.

And my only hope will die..

'...and I will die soon after.'

They do not take
betrayal lightly.

We have unfinished business
between us, G'Kar.

Let us make
an end of it quickly..

...before it stops me.

I am as tired of my life
as you are.

What is it? What is it?

I'm being pulled back again.

Then take these words
back with you to the past.

Treasure the moments you have.

Savor them
for as long as you can

for they will
never come back again.

John, listen to me

do not go to Z'ha'dum.

Do you understand?
Do not go to Z'ha'dum!

Aah!

Do you think you could
lend us a hand?

Uh, no. Very, very busy.

Zathras has idea.

Saw him, Zathras did,
so Zathras thinks

perhaps power supply in suit

will help activate
time stabilizer.

Will not last though.

Then he will be lost again.

There! Finished.

Now we wait.

He's quite mad, you know.

He actually thinks
that Sheridan's gonna

materialize in there.

Marcus, we're stealing a station
to fight in a war

that was over
a 1000 years ago.

We're all mad.

You know, I've been thinking,
Delenn said that

'their great leader, Valen'

came forward
at about the same time.

And Lennier said that
Valen was Minbari

not born of Minbari.
It's always intrigued me.

You think we'll get a chance
to meet him?

I don't know,
it'd be an honor though.

He's one of their
holiest figures.

Defeated the Shadows,
formed the Grey Council.

Captain?

No one ever listens to Zathras.

"Quite mad," they say.

It is good
that Zathras does not mind.

He's even grown to like it.
Oh, yes.

Yeah.

- Ah!
- Are you alright?

Yeah, yeah, I think so.

Feel like I could drift away
any second

but yeah, I'm okay.

Where's Sinclair?

Right here. Welcome back.

- How was your trip?
- I'm not sure.

I'm gonna have to
think about this for a while.

What's our status?

We've secured a path
to the central power core.

We're ready to proceed.

Alright. Then let's do it.

John! John!

John, are you alright?

Yeah, I'm fine.
I'm fine. No. No!

What is it?

Oh, it's a long story.

I'll have to tell you later.

- Go on. Go on.
- Yes. Yes.

Moving the last piece
into the central power core.

Must being very careful.

Time-jump system,
very delicate.

When finished,
station will be stabilized

for time travel.

Captain, I just finished
rigging the scanners on B4

to detect a phony alert
in the fusion reactor.

It'll make it look like the
whole place is going critical.

'I should encourage the crew
to evacuate'

'so we can move this thing.'

Roger that.

Major, we have a 20 percent
energy drop in the power core.

Increase output.

Sir, the system hasn't been
fully checked out yet--

I know what I'm doing,
lieutenant. Punch it!

We can't afford a brownout
if we've got hostiles aboard.

We're picking up a surge
of tachyon particles!

It's comin'..

Zathras!

Zathras know!

Zathras working.
Not Zathras fault.

Ah-ha! This works!

Stopping now!

What the hell was that?

Unknown. Time-track system
shot all to hell.

We're surrounded by some kind
of tachyon distortion field.

- Is everyone okay?
- Yes.

Yes, I think so.
What happened?

Time device activated
prematurely.

Not good. Malfunction.

So where are we?

Readings indicate we have
moved four years ahead.

Which is exactly when Babylon 4
reappeared the last time.

Well, so far
everything's happening

exactly the way it did before

whether we want it to or not.

Danger though.
Time system is not stable.

Very delicate.

Must adjust
before we try again

or become forever
lost in time.

- Very dangerous.
- Great.

Doesn't anything come under
warranty anymore?

Ivanova to Sheridan.

Captain?

'He's gone again.'

'And you better
get up here.'

'There's been a slight problem.'

Major, the reactor core
has become unstable.

Approaching critical.
It's not gonna last very long.

- We have to evacuate.
- No, not after all this.

Major, if this is
as bad as it sounds

we could lose
the whole station.

We have nearly
2,000 workers on board.

And you don't wanna jeopardize
their safety.

If it's safe,
we can come back.

But if it's not..

Alright.
Send out a distress signal--

We got another
tachyon burst!

'Hello.'

Delenn, are you--

I'm alright.
What was that?

Time flash. See yourself forward
or backward in time.

Zathras told you,
system unstable.

Jeff! My, God!
What-what happened?

What was bound
to happen as soon as

we went forward in time again.

When Garibaldi and I
came to Babylon 4 the last time

we passed through
the time distortion field

without any kind
of protection.

I always wondered if it would
have any long-term effects

if we were exposed
to the field again.

That's why I didn't
want him along.

But we can fix it, right?
I mean, uh..

You're not gonna keep getting
older the closer we get

to our own time, are you?

Is he?

Zathras does not know
for certain, but..

...is good chance, yes.

Either way, we can't stop
to worry about this now.

We've got a job to finish.

Sheridan disappeared again
just as the field went up.

If we don't get him back soon
we may lose him permanently.

Is there any way you can fix
his time stabilizer?

I have components,
but...need equipment.

Delicate, careful work.

I saw a work area
when we were out earlier.

Maybe they've got
what you need there.

- Then get going.
- Come on.

I'll go back into
the power core

and try to readjust
the equipment

and see if we can stabilize
this place.

Marcus, I'll need
you and the rest to stay

with the White Star
and monitor the readings.

Tell me when it's ready.

We've got one last shot at this.

Let's make the best of it.

No, no, no, no, no.

Not good. No--

Come on, come on,
find what you need

and let's get out of here.
We're running out of time.

Cannot run out of time.

There is infinite time.

You are finite,
Zathras is finite

this is wrong tool.

No. No, not good. No.

No. Never use this.

'How does it look?'

Readings are still unstable. I..

Ambassador Sinclair

I'm picking something up
on the external scanners.

I'm reading six. No, seven
ships coming this way.

I was wondering
when they'd get here.

- Who's on board?
- 'I am.'

'That's me and Garibaldi.'

'when we came here
two years ago, our time'

'to answer a distress call
from Babylon 4.'

Shuttle one to escort wing,
take position 2.5 kilometers

from the station and hold.

We'll go in
and check it out first.

Once we know it's clear,
we'll signal you

to proceed with the evacuation.

Let's do it.

Ah!

Ah! Hello.

I am Zathras.

Zathras got here
by being Zathras.

Zathras wants nothing,
so Zathras gets nothing.

'That is life.'

We got a problem, people.
They've got Zathras.

- How are the repairs going?
- Slowly.

We may have it
in another couple of hours.

'It's too long. What if I can
adjust the power from C-and-C?'

Great idea,
if you can get there.

'I can do it,
I just got to be careful.'

I've got company.

It started 24 hours after
the station went operational.

We began noticing discrepancies
in the time-track system.

We thought
it was a computer glitch

then all hell broke loose.

Anything else unusual happened
before the station vanished?

Yeah. This.

Says his name is Zathras.

'We don't know how he got
aboard, where he came from'

'or what race he is.'

'I've never seen an alien
like him before.'

Oh!

Oh..

Oh! Not the one. No.

- Not the one, what?
- Not the one.

Won't talk. Can't talk.

Not the one.

They told me. They did.

Zathras listens.
He does, yes.

Zathras listens
and does what he is told.

Okay, everybody,
let's get out.

We're evacuating
the station.

But, lieutenant,
if we leave--

I set the system
on automatic.

We can run the entire evacuation
from the docking bay.

Let's move out. Move out!

Okay, I'm in. Here goes.

Zathras warn, but no, no.

No one listen
to poor Zathras. No.

'A great war'

but great hope of peace.

Need place

'place to gather,
to fight, to organize.'

You need Babylon 4
as a base of operations

in a war, is that it?

To help save galaxy

on the side of light.

So they tell me..

...must have..

or it is the end of all.

The one leads us.

The one tells us to go.
We go.

Major! It's back!

Oh, no!

There it is again.

'What the hell?'

Ah! Ah.

It is the one.

Okay, that should do it.
I've got control of the core.

If you're finished down there,
back off

'cause I'm gonna
start her up.

Roger that. Heading in.

Commander, don't.

Fixed.
Zathras fixed.

Take. Hurry.

You must leave now.

Finished, we are.

There is no more time.

Leave or be trapped here
forever.

- What are you--
- I don't know.

The last thing I remember
was appearing here

a little while ago
then...then I passed out.

'He must have fixed it.'

No, no.
This isn't my stabilizer.

There's no sign of damage.

Someone must have
put this on me.

Switched places.

But if you're here

then who's running around
out there in a blue suit?

- We've gotta help him!
- Too late!

We've gotta get out of here!

- We can't leave him.
- You think I want to?

We have to leave now,
with or without you.

- Go!
- Go now! Leave me!

I can't.

Go! You must listen to Zathras.

You have a destiny.

'Go!'

Please!

Go for Zathras.

Babylon 4 to Garibaldi.

Babylon 4 to shuttle one.

Garibaldi, do you read me?

Watch your back, Michael.
Watch your back.

'Target is outside communication
range. Unable to make contact.'

Michael..

Oh..

Zathras knew..

...you would not leave him.

'Zathras trusts the one.'

I tried.

I tried to warn them..

...but it all happened

just the way I remembered.

I know.

It's time.
We have to go.

They're waiting for us.

I've finished integrating
the time-shifting controls

'so they can be adjusted
from here. It's ready to go.'

Good. The rest of you
head on back to the White Star.

I'll set it off,
then come join you.

'Entil'Zha..'

...you always said half a truth
was worse than a lie.

Don't disappoint me.

I don't know
what you're talking about?

You've kept us
going so fast

we haven't had time to think.

But this system isn't
fully automatic, is it?

'Someone has to ride this thing'

back into the distant past.

and it's a one-way ticket,
isn't it?

Whoever goes
isn't coming back.

Is this true?

Fine. I'll take her out.

Marcus..

..I'll take it back
because I've always taken it

and I always will.

It's already happened.

You don't know that.

Yes, I do.

You asked what brought me here.

Before I left Minbar,
I was given a letter

from 900 years ago.

- Whose handwriting is this?
- 'Mine.'

I wrote this from the past.
Nine hundred years ago.

I went.
It's as simple as that.

He's telling the truth.

I received one as well.

No. I-I can't accept this.

If I go back to our time

the aging effect
will probably kill me.

Isn't it better
to choose life?

- Dammit, Jeff, I--
- Susan, it's alright.

My whole life
has been leading to this.

Could you and Marcus
give us a minute here?

There's something
we need to discuss..

...alone.

Zathras, something
I don't understand.

You said you followed the one

but the one you pointed to was--

Was Delenn.

Yes. Zathras knew.

Zathras
is oldest living caretaker

of Great Machine, 110 years old.
Yeah.

Zathras has studied
the Great Machine

knows things even Draal

'does not know yet.'

And I know you.

Hmm.

All Minbari belief
is around three.

Three castes.

Worker, Warrior, Religious.

Three languages.

Light, dark, and grey.

The nine of the Grey Council.

Three times three.

All is three..

..as you are three..

...as you are one..

...as you are..

..The One. Mm.

You are the one who was.

You are the one who is.

And you are the one who will be.

You are the beginning
of the story..

...and the middle of the story..

...and the end of the story..

...that creates
the next great story.

Ah!

In your heart you know

what Zathras says is true.

Go now!

Zathras' place
is with the one who was.

We have a destiny. Hmm.

Stand by to break seal.

'It's what he wants.'

Let's respect it.

Engines at maximum.

Let's go home.

Captain, the temporal rift
is closing.

Guess Draal wants to make sure

no one else
gets trapped there.

Yes.

That door is closed forever

and it is not the only one.

Lennier told you
that a 1000 years ago

human and Minbari
souls began to merge.

Minbari souls were being born
in human bodies.

Something happened that opened
that door between us.

My change was, in part,
to even the scales

and restore balance
between our races

using a device my people
discovered a 1000 years ago.

You see..

...if my people had found
Babylon 4 with a human aboard

they would never
have accepted it.

Dear God, a Minbari
not born of Minbari.

My whole life has been
leading to this.

Don't you understand?
They're using you.

They're using you!

I knew..

...you would come.

You should rest.

We were right..

...about you.

You talk like a Minbari,
commander.

Good.

Zathras knew you would come.

This way.

Phew. Here we go.

I welcome you

and present
this place to you as a gift.

I am called Valen

and we have much work
ahead of us.
