'Hazmat team to Cargo Bay 7.'

Ambassador G'Kar, welcome back.

Captain Lochley. Well, this is an honor.

Well, I thought after everything you went through

on Centauri Prime, you might like to see a friendly face.

- How's Londo? - I don't know.

Though I mourn for my own people

in all my life, I don't think I have felt more pity

for anyone than I do for him.

Well, maybe Emperor Mollari will have more of a chance

at happiness than Ambassador Mollari ever did.

I doubt it.

At least now, things will settle

down here for a while.

Hm, maybe. Um, I should mention

that there are a few of your people

waiting to see you in customs.

- Just a few? - Mm-hmm.

Good, my presence on Centauri Prime

during this little war has probably cooled

their enthusiasm a bit.

I was afraid for a while that this cult of personality

was getting out of hand.

What matters is that you came to meet me.

G'Kar, I wouldn't have missed this for the world.

[all chanting] G'Kar! G'Kar! G'Kar! G'Kar!

G'Kar! G'Kar! G'Kar! G'Kar!

[continues chanting]

Well, I'd better get going, I have a meeting

with the president and Mr. Garibaldi.

- Captain. - See ya.

[continues chanting]

I..

[beeping]

Yeah?

- Michael, what's up? - What's up what?

Look, the meeting is about to start.

No, the meeting's at, uh, 4 o'clock.

No, the meeting is at 2:00, Michael.

Now you better get down here fast.

Sorry, there, uh..

There was a mix-up about the time.

It's alright.

Since you're already up, why don't you start?

Well, uh, sure.

Uh, well, there's, uh, no secret

that the, uh, that the, uh, Drazi didn't mind

the bombing of Centauri Prime.

Since the Minbari, uh..

Since the Centauri are the, uh

main competitors for trade and--

- 'Mr. Garibaldi.' - Yes, sir?

- You're drunk. - Mr. President, I..

Delenn, I need to see you out in the hall for a moment.

The rest of you are dismissed. We will reconvene later.

Michael, stay.

(Kosh) And so it begins.

(male #1) There's a hole in your mind.

(Sinclair) What do you want?

(G'Kar) No one here is exactly what he appears.

(Sinclair) Nothing's the same anymore.

(Hague) Commander Sinclair is being reassigned.

(Londo) Why don't you eliminate the entire Narn homeworld?

(Elric) I see a great hand reaching out of the stars.

(Sebastian) Who are you?

(female #1) President Clark has signed

a decree today declaring..

(Sheridan) These orders have forced us

to declare independence.

Unless your people get off their encounter

suited butts and do something.

(Zathras) You're the one who was.

(Kosh) If you go to Z'ha'dum, you will die.

(Lorien) Why are you here?

Do you have anything worth living for?

(Delenn) I think of my beautiful city in flames.

(Sheridan) Giants in the playground.

Now get the hell out of our galaxy.

We are here to place

President Clark under arrest.

[theme music]

[inaudible]

Please sit.

If you don't mind, I'd rather stand.

Suit yourself.

So, uh..

...when did you start drinking again, Michael?

Look, if you're gonna fire me, please just do it.

Get it over with.

When did you start drinking again?

I don't know.

Not long ago, a couple of months.

Yeah, that's just about what I figured.

You knew?

I suspected.

I worried.

I tried to convince myself that I was reading too much

into the meetings where you were late or unprepared.

The recent decline in your performance.

'You've been under a great deal of pressure lately.'

Uh, what we went through at the end of the Civil War

then coming right back here without even a break in between.

I tried to tell myself that it was just the strain

of the last year or so.

(Sheridan) 'I didn't know for sure until today.'

Look, John, you've..

You got every reason to be angry with me--

I'm not angry with you. Not now.

I was.

But Delenn has a..

...a way of looking at things that..

[sighs] No, no, I'm not angry with you.

But I am very disappointed, Michael.

I'd rather have you yelling at me or angry.

Anything but disappointed.

I know I failed--

I didn't say I was disappointed

in you because of your failure.

I'm disappointed because I didn't pick up on this earlier.

Disappointed because you felt that you couldn't come to me

about this on your own.

When Stephen had his problem a couple of years ago

I didn't step forward and offer my help when I should have

and he damn near died trying to deal

with his problem on his own.

I have made a lot of mistakes, same as everybody else.

But I try not to make the same mistake twice.

So I'm not fired?

I didn't say that.

I can't let this go unanswered. You know that.

But on your own, the only person

you have to worry about hurting or helping..

...is yourself.

So, no, you're not fired.

But I am placing you on suspension.

How long?

Until you work this out.

That could take a very long time.

It'll take what it takes.

We've had our problems, Michael.

But I am still your friend.

You have to understand that your problem

is not between you and me.

You and your job or any of that.

Your problem is between you..

...and you.

And when you've worked this out..

...we'll be here.

[indistinct chatter]

Uh, no, thank you.

I appreciate it, but no.

Alrighty. Thank you.

[beeping]

(G'Kar) Go away.

(Franklin) 'Uh, G'Kar, it's, uh, Dr. Franklin.'

'I, I need to speak with you for a moment, please.'

(G'Kar) 'Enter.'

[indistinct chatter]

Quite a line you've got out there, G'Kar.

I thought I had a big waiting room.

I've stopped trying to count them.

And more come by the hour, by the minute.

- I don't understand it. - Well, I do.

I got a call from your government.

They've been trying to get a hold of you ever since

you got back, but you're not taking any calls.

It seemed a simpler way of achieving a little peace

than hanging myself.

But why did the Kha'ri call you?

Well, doctors are supposed to get involved in errands of mercy

and that's how they pitched it to me.

They want me to tell you that, uh, your homeworld

is up in arms, G'Kar.

Half of them want you to come home

and take charge of the whole place.

I told them no before.

My decision stands.

Please.

Thank you.

What do the other half want?

'Well, they want you to come back long enough'

to give them your blessing and let them run Narn

on your behalf.

Looks like your popularity back home has kicked into high gear.

On what basis?

Well, apparently your people believe that your presence

on Centauri Prime allowed them to attack without retribution.

You came through it alive, which they're considering

another not-so-minor miracle

and you don't want the power.

And people love giving power

to those they believe don't want it.

This is insane.

Yeah, well, that's as good a word as any.

I spoke with the captain.

She says that more ships are arriving from Narn every hour

bringing more pilgrims who want to learn from me.

If I stay here, we'll be flooded with my people.

If I go home, they'll make me into..

'...into this.'

Well, that doesn't leave a lot of options now, does it?

None at all.

I've never understood that.

Why does the universe give us puzzles with no answers?

Pay back, maybe?

'Evening up the scales a little?'

The other day I was thinking about

what you said about God a few weeks ago

and I remembered an old human saying.

Can God make a rock so big that even he can't lift it?

Yes, I've heard it, but--

I wonder if that's the wrong question?

I wonder if the right question is

can God create a puzzle so difficult

a riddle so complex

that even he can't solve it?

What if that's us?

Maybe a problem like this is God's way

of doing to us a little of what we do to him?

- Captain? - Yes, Zack, what is it?

I've got an emergency transmission

from Earth security HQ standing by.

I figured you should be in on it.

Captain, good, I was just telling Mr. Allan

that we've got a serious problem on our hands.

During the last month, there have been

a dozen more attacks on Psi Corps property.

Bombings, sabotage, you name it.

Now we believe those responsible are amateurs

but they're making up for it with resources.

High-tech weapons, munitions

comm systems, they've got it all.

Well, ma'am, you have my sympathy, but I really don't see

what you expect us to do about it.

This is an internal matter that--

That runs right through your office, captain.

Point one, at the site of every bombing

we've found the words "Remember Byron"

'painted on the walls.'

Now didn't you have a telepath named Byron

come through Babylon 5 lately

leading a group of rogue telepaths?

Yes, ma'am, but that was take--

Point two, we've traced the money used to purchase

the weapons used in these attacks

through several shell companies.

The money trail ends at Babylon 5.

Lyta.

(female #2) 'Now you are under orders'

to detain Lyta Alexander for questioning.

Arrest her, if necessary

and return her to Earth for a full inquiry

into her involvement in these terrorist attacks.

[doorbell chimes]

Yeah, open.

Mr. Garibaldi.

Just thought I'd come by and see how you're doing.

Me?

I am screwed up one side and down the other.

This must be a really great day for you, captain.

You got what you wanted.

I'm history.

Well, the president told me you were suspended, not fired.

Same difference.

We both know I'm not getting

my job back any time soon

not after all this.

Well, if that's what you've decided

then that's what's gonna happen.

But you do have the option to choose otherwise.

Thanks for the fortune cookie wisdom.

- Anything else? - No, not really.

I just thought I'd come by, offer any help I can and..

...tell you that I understand.

You understand.

And you wanna help.

You? Even after we've locked horns from day one?

That's right.

'And what makes you think that you understand?'

What makes you think you know what I'm going through, captain?

Huh? Please tell me 'cause I could use a good laugh.

Alright.

- You're angry. - Bravo, Miss Holmes.

A masterpiece of investigative work, please, go on.

Because you feel like you're alone, you need that anger

to, to push away anybody whose compassion might contradict you.

'Because you feel like you're not in control anymore.'

Hey, you may as well go even further out of control.

And because you can't hurt the people who hurt you

like Bester, you've got to lash out at everybody else.

See, the drinking gives a control freak like you

permission to let it go.

To, to be angry, to lash out, to lose it.

Did you get that out of a book?

Was it a psychology text or was it one of those pop-up books?

Mr. Garibaldi..

- My father was an alcoholic. - I am not an--

When he was drunk, he used to lash out at us

just like you're lashing out at me right now.

He wasn't mad at us. He was mad at himself.

At what he was, at-at the walls that were closing in around him.

And because he was career military

he thought he had to keep it buttoned up.

Shirts pressed, chin up

yes, sir, no, sir, nothing in-between.

Doesn't matter what you feel, you keep it down.

See, the alcohol gave him permission to let go.

And what was he angry about, huh?

At the time, I didn't know.

Hey, I was just a kid, how the hell was I supposed

to understand any of this?

I figured it was, it was my fault somehow.

So I was always trying to fix whatever it was.

Nothing worked.

And after a while

I got so frustrated, so hurt

that I ran away from home.

Which just confirmed his suspicions.

The same ones you've got.

And what are those?

'That you're a failure.'

That you're not good enough to handle the job

and you've got no business being here.

I'll tell you what, captain.

I've got a few things to do around here

so why don't you just leave?

- Not until I'm finished. - Get out.

- No. - Fine. Then I'm gonna leave.

- Hey. - What is wrong with you?

- Can't you take a hint? - I'm not finished yet.

Besides, you're just walking away to see if I'll follow you.

Why don't you stop trying to tell me

what the hell I think, alright?

Okay, then I'll tell you a little more about my father.

Green 2.

After my mother died

I was the one who had to go through the house

and figure out what to sell, what to keep.

While I was going through the attic

I came across some paintings

landscapes, portraits.

Beautiful work.

I looked at the signature and..

...they'd been painted by my father.

It was the one thing he loved

almost as much as he loved my mother.

He never wanted to be in the military.

He just, he just did it because everybody expected him to

like his father and his father before that.

He stopped painting the day he enlisted.

But he wanted to paint. He was good at it.

And it was killing him not to, one drink at a time.

[elevator dings]

He didn't see any way out of his life, any way to change it.

But the door's always there, Michael.

You just have to open it.

Okay, fine, so you had a hard life

and your old man had some real life problems.

But that doesn't mean that you understand

what I'm going through.

In all the time that you've been here

I've never even seen you take a drink.

No, you haven't.

Because I've got the same exact damn problem you've got.

I-I, I didn't--

'No. no, of course, you didn't.'

You see

children of alcoholics usually end up one of two ways.

Either they, they try to help everybody else

because they couldn't help themselves

or they become alcoholics.

'I couldn't stop what was happening to my father.'

So I became the very thing I hated.

Oh, if it could be swallowed, shot

or smoked, oh, I did it.

Until somebody very close to me died.

Then I realized what I was doing.

After that, I tried to get better.

And it hasn't been easy.

Every day is a struggle.

So if you think I don't know what you're feeling, mister

you're wrong.

You're dead wrong.

[dings]

Maybe that's why we didn't get along from day one.

Maybe we recognized too much of ourselves

in the other person.

I couldn't help my father.

And I couldn't help myself at the time, but..

...maybe I can help you the only way I know how.

By telling you all that.

At least you know you're not alone.

Everything else..

...is up to you.

Sorry to be late. Sheridan here?

No, not yet.

Oh, he said he wanted to be

here when we arrested her.

Well, we can't wait forever. Where is she?

Over there.

'The guy she's talking to is Wolfgang Schneider.'

'An arms dealer.'

'Works with the Narns a lot'

but strictly freelance.

Pretty blatant, meeting out in the open like this.

Probably means she's not worried about interference from us.

Oh, if that doesn't worry you, it scares the hell out of me.

Alright, everybody in place?

Yeah, parked and ready to go.

- Let's go. - Alright, follow us in.

(Lochley) 'Lyta? We need to talk to you.'

Go ahead. I'll catch up with you later.

We'd like you to come with us.

Am I under arrest, Zack?

We just need you to answer some questions.

Now we can do this any way you like.

But if we have to arrest you, that's what we'll do.

What's the charge?

Aiding and abetting terrorist activities back home.

'Look, there's no reason to make a scene here.'

Just come with us.

What if I don't wanna go?

I don't think you have a lot of choice.

Are you sure about that, captain?

[tapping]

Lyta.

[thumping]

I'm tired of being pushed around, captain.

[synchronized thumping]

I do not choose to be arrested.

I've done a lot for this place.

And just once I think a little gratitude

would be in order, don't you?

- Lyta, don't force us to-- - To what?

Zack?

You cannot harm me.

You cannot stop someone who's been touched by Vorlons.

You're not the only one that's been touched by the Vorlons.

Let them go.

Let them go or I'll blow the back of your skull off.

[indistinct chatter]

You can't be everywhere, Mr. President.

Good point.

[grunts]

Get her out of here and put her in Level 1 lockup.

I hate myself for saying this

but maybe you should've pulled

the trigger while you could.

You may not get another chance.

(Garibaldi) Captain?

Captain, I've been looking for you.

I, uh, I heard about what happened with Lyta.

Oh, yeah, what the hell's going on with her, anyway?

Her attitude and her abilities?

Getting more destructive every day.

I don't know, maybe they're linked somehow.

You know, the angrier she gets, the more her abilities increase?

Maybe it's the other way around.

Oh, she's been through hell lately

and maybe just hit the end of the road.

Great, so now what do I do with her?

I can't keep her locked up indefinitely.

And if I try to send her home, it'll be a bloodbath.

Anyway, I'm glad you're here.

There's something you should see.

Uh, before we do that.

The reason that I was looking for you was

well, I, I just want to say I'm sorry

for yelling at you earlier.

I, I know how hard that must've been for you

and I appreciate what you said and why you said it.

I don't know what I'm gonna do about it yet

but, uh, I just wanted to say thanks.

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay, I'll bite.

- What am I looking for? - 'Michael.'

Lise?

Oh!

I came as soon as I got your message.

There's nothing like the love of a good woman

to keep your spirits up, is there, Mr. Garibaldi?

What, uh, part of my message did you get?

We've been having trouble with the comm system, see, and..

The most important part.

The part that said I need you.

And you came here just on that.

What more is there?

Mmm, oh, it's good to see you.

Mmm.

I just heard the news. Is that her?

Yeah, we put her in the brig furthest away

from any human contact and put the system on auto-maintenance.

Now, that should make it harder for her

to influence anyone to let her out. Water?

No. No, thanks.

I just don't understand it, Stephen.

What could make her turn like this?

Well, let's see, she was, uh

adjusted by the Vorlons, dumped by the Vorlons

used as a weapon. Quit the corps.

Lost the only man she ever loved

and dedicated herself to finishing his work.

Pick one or all of the above.

Let's face it, she's pissed.

Mmm, massively.

No, there's something more going on here.

Something that pushed her over the edge.

I mean, first Londo, then Garibaldi, and now this.

I tell you, the next person who acts irrationally

I swear I'm gonna shoot myself in the head.

Bastards!

- Did she just-- - She did.

- I'll get the gun. - Delenn, are you--

- Bastards! - Yeah, we got that part.

The Narn government says they're going to boycott

all our ships until G'Kar comes home.

Well, that's not our choice. He doesn't wanna go home.

They say he's staying here out of a sense of obligation.

And that if we tell him to go home, he will.

- They're insane. - I know, and I just, I..

I don't think I can, I..

- I can.. - Delenn?

Franklin to Medlab 1.

We need a trauma team, Sheridan's office, stat.

And, the bottom line is, I'm suspended indefinitely.

- Till I get it worked out. - 'Michael, it doesn't matter.'

(Lise) 'You were gonna leave at the end of the year anyway.'

At least that's what you told me.

Did you mean it?

Of course, I meant it. That doesn't change anything.

[sighs] I messed up, Lise.

I messed up more than I've ever messed anything up

in my whole damn life and I don't know what to do about it.

I'm gonna try and sober up.

I know I can do it.

It may take a while, it may take a long while.

So what am I supposed to do in the meantime?

Come back to Mars with me.

No, no, I, I can't do that

not until I get my act together.

Not until I get it alright.

Well, then you may as well give up

because nobody gets it 100 percent right.

I just wanna give you a normal life.

There is no normal life, Michael.

There's just life.

I know you have a problem

but we can work through it together.

The hell with this job, Michael.

I need you.

I'm still trying to get a handle

on running Edgars Industries.

There's a lot going on, a lot I don't understand

a lot I don't wanna understand.

You can be a huge help to me.

And I can help you.

That's what married couples do.

You, um..

You still wanna go through with this?

More than anything in my entire life.

I lost you twice, Michael.

I have no intention of losing you again.

I'm offering you love..

...and passion..

...and co-ownership of one of the biggest

corporations on Mars.

Mmm.

What do you say?

I'd say that the president just got outbid.

Hmm.

Yeah.

Yeah.

One of the biggest corporations on Mars.

Michael, where are you going?

To kill two teeps with one stone.

- Well, how is she? - She's stable for now.

Only time will tell if her system can adjust

to handle the stress she's putting on it.

That's why she, uh, just shut down like that.

Look, you have to understand she's a Minbari-human hybrid.

Things aren't gonna work the same.

Wait, wh-what are you talking about?

What is wrong with her?

She's pregnant.

Pregnant.

I, I didn't even know she could.

I thought you said that the blood tests were inconclusive.

No, I said that I didn't know

if the two of you could ever have children.

We're in uncharted terrain, John.

Now, I figured the odds were 100 to one against

which, I guess, goes to show you I wasn't born to gamble.

Do you want the child?

Will she be okay? Uh..

I mean, you said this is putting

a, a terrible strain on her system.

Uh, will she be able to carry it full term and survive?

I don't know.

Sh-she's young.

She's in good shape.

She's strong-willed, that's for sure.

If you're asking for a yes or no answer, I can't give you one.

The odds are good.

But as we just saw, I have been wrong before.

If I have to choose between the baby and her..

...it's her.

But if I can have both..

...I want both.

I know she'd want it.

Hello, Lyta.

Just wanna stop by and see how you were doing.

In case you're wondering, I, uh..

...I don't have any access codes.

I don't have any way to get you out of here

so we might as well just both...relax.

Right?

I'm, uh..

I'm just gonna..

...sit over here..

...and, uh..

We can talk, okay?

They, uh, tell me that you're having problems back home.

I know you think you can fight your way out of it, but..

...you're not gonna be able to do any good

if they keep you drugged

during stasis for the trip home.

Once they got you back..

I sure would hate to visit Psi Corps headquarters

and see bits of you floating around in jars of formaldehyde.

'I think I can help you, Lyta.'

I can help you and..

...and you can help me.

Now if you're interested, I'll try and get us transferred

to another cell where we can talk privately

without having that camera watch over us the whole time.

- What camera? - Right.

Okay.

Okay, here's my proposition.

We know that you've been funneling money

to the underground back home

and in turn, hitting the Psi Corps.

You're doing it because you don't like

what they've done to you

and the other telepaths.

Well, we've got something in common.

Because I don't like what they've done to me.

They messed with my mind and Bester planted

a neural block in my head that keeps me from nailin'

that sucker's head to the wall.

That, and, um, a few other things that have happened lately

have caused me a few problems.

- You're drinking again. - Yeah.

'I can't help you.'

Even I can't get rid of an addiction.

There's no easy solutions.

I know.

Believe me, I do.

But there is one thing that you can do.

You can take out Bester's neural block.

That's when all my problems started to happen again.

I mean, if you give me the freedom to get back at him

then maybe, just maybe, I might have a chance

to get a little control over my life again.

And in return?

I can have a very influential corporation talk to Earth

on your behalf to drop the charges.

But I'd have to leave Babylon 5 and not come back.

That would have to be the deal.

It's not enough.

How much is your revenge worth to you, Michael?

I told you this isn't about revenge, Lyta.

I am just trying to get back in control of my life again.

Of course.

In that case, I have a counter proposal for you.

(Michael) 'Of course, we wouldn't be in this situation'

'if G'Kar hadn't given Lyta a hell of a lot of money'

'in exchange for her giving the Narns telepath DNA.'

Well, that's still only a rumor, Michael.

And even if it's true, Narn internal affairs

are strictly off-limits to the Alliance.

Oh, it's true, alright.

Look all the transactions have been

placed in a secret account

and only she has the access code.

Now, she's agreed to transfer the money into a secret fund

that's gonna be used exclusively to help telepaths.

No more blowing stuff up.

Ledgers will be kept, accounts will be balanced.

The books will be made available for review

by anybody who wants to see them anytime.

Now who's gonna supervise this trust fund?

She's given me authority to pick someone.

Now, captain, I give you my word.

Every penny in that fund will be accounted for.

Alright, assuming this is true, I still don't have

the authority to let her go.

'You'll have it by the end of the day'

because there's a certain senator who receives

a fairly large campaign contribution every year

from Edgars Industries who is gonna intercede on her behalf.

Okay, once she's out of the brig, then what?

I, I can't just let her wander around Babylon-5

in her current state.

She is extremely powerful, very dangerous

and, for my money, unstable.

I just happened to catch the last part of your discussion

and I believe we have a common solution

to our respective problems.

Well, alright, let's hear it.

This is how I've come to be seen by my people.

Despite my best efforts, I've become an icon.

'I didn't understand why or how until I saw this.'

I realized it's simpler to make a statue to someone

who you believe embodies all your better qualities

than it is to actually improve yourself.

And this saves you from having to think.

Exactly.

For the last year, I've tried to point my people

toward the simple truth that we are one regardless of race.

Somehow, that message has gotten twisted

so that I have become their idea of the truth personified.

Once you turn into this, you can no longer be who you are.

You can only be what they want you to be

what they expect you to be.

If I return, they will try to make me into this

'and I cannot allow that.'

If I stay here, my followers will continue

to disrupt Babylon 5.

Is that not true, captain?

I hate to say it, but yes, that's correct.

So you see, Lyta and I are in the same position.

Neither of us can go home and neither of us

can stay here any longer.

Then where do you go?

Out there.

Visiting Centauri Prime helped me

understand the Centauri.

And out of that came a new peace between our people.

I also realized that there is so much I have never seen.

How much more could I understand?

How much more could I help my people

if I saw even more of the universe around us?

I could destroy this by betraying my principles.

But I can't do that.

So I have decided to go away.

I will return when I've found a way to destroy this

while keeping the message intact.

What about Lyta?

I could use a traveling companion.

I have learned a great deal

about healing wounds and curing anger.

Perhaps, in my way, I can help her deal with her own anger

as I dealt with mine.

Either way, as soon as I put my affairs in order

I am leaving Babylon 5.

And it is entirely possible that I may never return.

Oh, I didn't hear you come in.

Did you talk with the captain?

Yes, I did.

Did she go for the deal?

Uh, yeah.

Yeah, she did.

Oh, it, uh, it turns out that G'Kar's leaving too.

You know, it's funny, with..

With him leaving and taking Lyta with him

and Franklin taking a job back on Earth

me leaving soon, Londo gone.

Hell, even Sheridan's heading off

to Minbar with Delenn as soon as he gets

the new facilities for the Alliance in order.

I don't know, it just, uh..

It doesn't seem like this place is gonna be the same anymore.

Life is change.

It's a good thing.

What matters is you've taken the first step

to putting your life back together.

You made a good deal.

Get ready for bed. You look exhausted.

[sighs]

Oh, yeah.

I made a good deal.

(Lyta) I have a counter proposal for you.

I've done everything I could, Michael.

I, I raised money to help fight the Psi Corps

but the way they tracked it back to me shows I don't have

the background to know how to use it.

You do.

With Edgars Industries, you've got resources, contacts

and a way to move large amounts of money

without attracting attention.

So here's my deal.

We'll set up two accounts.

The first one's for show.

The second one is the real account, the big one.

Use that money to hurt the Psi Corps

and help my people.

You can't hurt Bester directly because of the neural block

but you can help me bring down everything he cares about.

You can help me destroy the Psi Corps

and free my people.

Well, why not just remove the neural block?

Because it's a great motivator.

You won't rest until it's gone and I'm the only hope you've got

of ever gettin' rid of it.

I'll check back with you after two years.

If you've done as I ask, if you've created a force

I can use against the Corps..

...I'll take out that neural block.

Then you can deal with Bester.

I'll deal with the Corps.

We both get what we want.

Aren't you taking an awful chance?

I could just grab the money and run.

I don't believe you'd do that.

If I thought otherwise, I'd kill you where you stand.

How?

My turn.

You want me as a partner?

Then I have to be in all the way.

So I need to know, Lyta.

Something's happened to your abilities.

You're not a P5 anymore. Hell, you're not even a P12.

You're the strongest telepath that I've ever seen.

What did the Vorlons do to you, Lyta?

Who..

What are you?

I've only recently begun to understand it myself.

You know the Vorlons used telepaths as weapons

during the Shadow War, but what no one stopped

to consider was that in a war

you have a certain number of small weapons

a certain number of medium-size weapons..

...and one or two big ones..

...the kind of weapons you drop when you're..

...out of the small weapons and the medium weapons

and you've got nothin' left to use.

Someone like that would..

...be the telepathic equivalent of a thermonuclear device

a...a doomsday weapon.

Pleased to meet you, Mr. Garibaldi.

[sighs]

Stop staring at me.

I'm sorry. I couldn't help it.

One would think you have never seen

a pregnant half-human half-Minbari before.

Oh.

So why weren't you sleeping?

I was just laying here and thinking.

We haven't heard a word from Londo since we came back.

I find I miss him.

He's probably just busy.

He's got a lot of responsibilities now.

He'll have to adjust to being emperor

like I had to adjust to my new job.

I'm sure that's all.

Hell, he's probably still celebrating his coronation..

...partying all night.

I hope so.

I hope he's alright, John.

I really do.
