to stolen transport.

00:00:10,184 --> 00:00:11,576
You're ordered
to surrender your vessel
5
00:00:11,663 --> 00:00:13,317
and prepare to be boarded.

You missed a button.
13
00:00:40,605 --> 00:00:42,651
You're bright
and cheerful this morning.
14
00:00:42,738 --> 00:00:44,740
Got an offer on the table
from Universal Terraform
15
00:00:44,827 --> 00:00:48,222
to do some surveying I'm seeing
them in an hour to talk terms.
16
00:00:48,309 --> 00:00:50,398
That's a big operation,
sure you want to get involved
17
00:00:50,485 --> 00:00:51,964
with a mega corp?
18
00:00:52,052 --> 00:00:54,402
Jeff, I've been around
the block a few times
19
00:00:54,489 --> 00:00:56,143
I can handle myself.
20
00:00:56,230 --> 00:00:57,970
- You worry too much.
- You don't worry enough.
21
00:00:58,058 --> 00:01:00,582
- Perfect combination.
- Mmh.
22
00:01:00,669 --> 00:01:03,150
Gotta hurry.
See you at lunch?
23
00:01:03,237 --> 00:01:05,152
Can't. I have a budget meeting
24
00:01:05,239 --> 00:01:07,284
with the construction guild.
Have to make some cuts.
25
00:01:07,371 --> 00:01:08,764
Can't say
I'm not looking forward to it.
26
00:01:08,851 --> 00:01:10,461
I'm sure, It'll be fine.
27
00:01:10,548 --> 00:01:12,028
It's been quiet
for the last week
28
00:01:12,115 --> 00:01:13,769
the whole place is on schedule.
29
00:01:13,856 --> 00:01:15,379

00:01:28,740 --> 00:01:30,960
I'm looking forward to my visit.

[intense music]
35
00:01:35,007 --> 00:01:38,576
[male narrator]
It was the dawn
of the Third Age of mankind
36
00:01:38,663 --> 00:01:41,492
ten years after
the Earth-Minbari War.
37
00:01:41,579 --> 00:01:45,322
The Babylon Project
was a dream given form.
38
00:01:45,409 --> 00:01:47,368
Its goal,
to prevent another war
39
00:01:47,455 --> 00:01:49,935
by creating a place
where humans and aliens
40
00:01:50,022 --> 00:01:52,590
could work out their
differences peacefully.
41
00:01:52,677 --> 00:01:55,376
It's a port of call,
home away from home
42
00:01:55,463 --> 00:02:00,555
for diplomats, hustlers,
entrepreneurs and wanderers.
43
00:02:00,642 --> 00:02:05,037
Humans and aliens,
wrapped in 2,500,000 tons
44
00:02:05,125 --> 00:02:08,606
of spinning metal,
all alone in the night.
45
00:02:10,391 --> 00:02:12,610
It can be a dangerous place.
46
00:02:12,697 --> 00:02:15,918
But it's our last,
best hope for peace.
47
00:02:16,005 --> 00:02:19,661
This is the story of the last
of the Babylon stations.
48
00:02:19,748 --> 00:02:22,098
The year is 2258.
49
00:02:22,185 --> 00:02:25,449
The name of the place
is Babylon 5.
50
00:02:25,536 --> 00:02:27,408
[theme music]
51
00:03:03,922 --> 00:03:05,794
[instrumental music]
52
00:03:08,231 --> 00:03:11,278
I've often wondered what
it's like to be a telepath.
53
00:03:11,365 --> 00:03:13,715
It's like staying
in a hotel room
54
00:03:13,802 --> 00:03:16,544
where you can just hear
the people talking next door.
55
00:03:16,631 --> 00:03:19,721
You can try and shut it out,
but it's always there.
56
00:03:19,808 --> 00:03:22,376
The key is to not to listen
unless unless you're invited.
57
00:03:22,463 --> 00:03:25,640
So is it difficult to block out
people's thoughts?
58
00:03:25,727 --> 00:03:27,381
Depends on the thoughts.
59
00:03:29,209 --> 00:03:31,907
- 'Destination? '
- Blue 14.
60
00:03:33,865 --> 00:03:35,954
Casual thoughts
are very easy to block
61
00:03:36,041 --> 00:03:38,957
but strong emotions have a way
of slipping through sometimes.
62
00:03:39,044 --> 00:03:41,525
whether you want them
to or not.
63
00:03:41,612 --> 00:03:44,006

64
00:03:46,574 --> 00:03:48,010

68
00:04:10,467 --> 00:04:11,860
Yes?
69
00:04:17,779 --> 00:04:20,608
No, sir. I just never met
a Psi Cop before.
70
00:04:22,610 --> 00:04:24,264
Yes, sir.
I'll bring you there myself.
71
00:04:25,613 --> 00:04:27,049
This way.
72
00:04:30,879 --> 00:04:33,360
Would you tell me more
about the target?
73
00:04:33,447 --> 00:04:36,580
It's a class-four world,
designated Sigma 957.
74
00:04:36,667 --> 00:04:39,714
Not much atmosphere,
mostly nitrogen and oxygen.
75
00:04:39,801 --> 00:04:42,369
And their fly-by sensor picked
up traces of diridium.
76
00:04:42,456 --> 00:04:44,632
Byproduct of Quantium-40.
77
00:04:44,719 --> 00:04:46,721
Usually, we need that verified.
78
00:04:46,808 --> 00:04:48,897
If so, we'll send out a live
scientist probe, make sure
79
00:04:48,984 --> 00:04:49,985
we're in accord
with all the regs in
80
00:04:50,072 --> 00:04:51,900
planetary exploitation.
81
00:04:51,987 --> 00:04:55,773
But we can't afford that unless
we're it's worth the effort.
82
00:04:55,860 --> 00:04:57,688
How can it not be worth it?
83
00:04:57,775 --> 00:04:59,821
There's a shortage
of Q-40 on Earth.
84
00:04:59,908 --> 00:05:02,127
They're backed up six months
on jump-gate construction.
85
00:05:02,214 --> 00:05:04,608
Which is why we need absolute
confidentiality.
86
00:05:04,695 --> 00:05:07,263
I need your word that you won't
mention this to anyone
87
00:05:07,350 --> 00:05:08,786
including the commander.
88
00:05:10,484 --> 00:05:11,963
My personal life has
nothing to do--
89
00:05:12,050 --> 00:05:15,880
I know. I know, I was told
to ask, so I'm asking.
90
00:05:15,967 --> 00:05:18,709
We each have our marching
orders, Ms. Sakai.
91
00:05:20,276 --> 00:05:21,538
'So do I have your word?'
92
00:05:25,194 --> 00:05:27,892
- She's telling the truth.
- Well, then, we have a deal.
93
00:05:30,634 --> 00:05:34,029
There is one other thing,
the target is in a..
94
00:05:34,116 --> 00:05:36,466
...contested sector of space.
95
00:05:36,553 --> 00:05:38,163
So we'll need the approval
of one other party
96
00:05:38,250 --> 00:05:40,644
'before we can proceed
with the survey.'
97
00:05:40,731 --> 00:05:43,125
[instrumental music]
98
00:05:49,784 --> 00:05:52,830
Commander? Some VIPs
here to see you, sir.
99
00:05:54,354 --> 00:05:55,833
Send them in.
100
00:06:01,012 --> 00:06:03,101
No, it's a fine time, I..
101
00:06:07,932 --> 00:06:11,283
Get out of my head.
102
00:06:11,371 --> 00:06:13,460
You wanna talk to me,
talk to me.
103
00:06:13,547 --> 00:06:16,288
My apologies, commander.
104
00:06:16,376 --> 00:06:19,204
- It saves considerable time.
- I don't care.
105
00:06:19,291 --> 00:06:21,119
I don't like people
rummaging around in my head.
106
00:06:21,206 --> 00:06:23,687
I thought the Psi Corps had
rules about this sort of thing.
107
00:06:23,774 --> 00:06:26,255
There are rules,
and there are rules, commander.
108
00:06:26,342 --> 00:06:29,737
When telepaths go rogue,
someone has to take them down.
109
00:06:29,824 --> 00:06:32,566
Only Psi Cops are qualified
to do that.
110
00:06:32,653 --> 00:06:35,003
Since we bear a greater
responsibility
111
00:06:35,090 --> 00:06:38,528
we're afforded latitude
in the interest of efficiency.
112
00:06:38,615 --> 00:06:42,576
- Yes, I'm sure, Mr--
- Bester.
113
00:06:42,663 --> 00:06:45,056
This is my associate,
Ms. Kelsey.
114
00:06:45,143 --> 00:06:47,407
We're looking
for a rogue telepath.
115
00:06:47,494 --> 00:06:49,583
We have reason to believe
he maybe on this station.
116
00:06:49,670 --> 00:06:51,715
We need to set up a meeting
as soon as possible
117
00:06:51,802 --> 00:06:54,805
with your resident telepath
as well as your security
118
00:06:54,892 --> 00:06:56,981
and command personnel,
then we'll proceed--
119
00:06:57,068 --> 00:06:58,940
I am not turning
this station upside down
120
00:06:59,027 --> 00:07:01,551
because you're hunting down
one rogue telepath.
121
00:07:01,638 --> 00:07:04,902
Not just a rogue, commander.
122
00:07:04,989 --> 00:07:08,210
This is a special
and very dangerous individual
123
00:07:08,297 --> 00:07:10,995
whose presence here threatens
the entire Earth Alliance
124
00:07:11,082 --> 00:07:12,954

125
00:07:15,086 --> 00:07:16,871
This is our basic
guest quarters.
126
00:07:16,958 --> 00:07:19,482
The vibe shower's in the back
and through that door--
127
00:07:19,569 --> 00:07:21,876
- Price?
- 500 credits per week.
128
00:07:21,963 --> 00:07:24,487
Based on Earth standard
rotational cycles.
129
00:07:24,574 --> 00:07:26,271
Fine. Fine.
130
00:07:26,358 --> 00:07:27,577
If there's anything
else you need--
131
00:07:27,664 --> 00:07:29,492
No. No, thank you.

His name is Jason Ironheart.
141
00:08:23,981 --> 00:08:25,896
I believe you know him,
Miss Winters.
142
00:08:25,983 --> 00:08:28,725
Yes, he was my instructor at
the Psi Corps training Academy.
143
00:08:28,812 --> 00:08:30,335
His job is to work
with telepaths
144
00:08:30,422 --> 00:08:32,033
'level P-5 through P-10'
145
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,123
high level training, jamming

the development of fringe
skills, that sort of thing.
147
00:08:37,212 --> 00:08:39,214
- What's his Psi rating?
- He's a ten.
148
00:08:39,301 --> 00:08:41,956
All instructors
at the academy are rated P-10.
149
00:08:42,043 --> 00:08:44,306
And Psi Cops?
What are you rated?
150
00:08:44,393 --> 00:08:45,786
P-12.
151
00:08:45,873 --> 00:08:48,136
Someone has to keep an eye
on the rest.
152
00:08:48,223 --> 00:08:50,921
Yes, but who watches
the watchmen?
153
00:08:51,008 --> 00:08:54,142
One year ago, Jason Ironheart
was reassigned
154
00:08:54,229 --> 00:08:56,057
to Earth Force
military Intelligence
155
00:08:57,319 --> 00:08:58,668
working on a covert operation.
156
00:08:58,755 --> 00:09:00,627
What kind of covert operation?
157
00:09:00,714 --> 00:09:03,804
That information is on a
need-to-know basis, commander.
158
00:09:03,891 --> 00:09:05,719
And you don't need to know.
159
00:09:05,806 --> 00:09:07,372
Let's just say that
what's in his brain
160
00:09:07,459 --> 00:09:10,201
would compromise
Earth Force defense
161
00:09:10,288 --> 00:09:12,987
and lead to the death of many
of our covert operatives
162
00:09:13,074 --> 00:09:14,423
on other worlds.
163
00:09:14,510 --> 00:09:16,120
We think he intends to sell
164
00:09:16,207 --> 00:09:18,035
that information
to other governments.
165
00:09:18,122 --> 00:09:21,299
That's nonsense! Jason would
never do anything like that.
166
00:09:21,386 --> 00:09:25,260
Our job is to find him and bring
him back. Alive if possible.
167
00:09:25,347 --> 00:09:27,305
Dead if necessary.
168
00:09:27,392 --> 00:09:29,525

with Jason Ironheart
169
00:09:29,612 --> 00:09:31,396

170
00:09:31,483 --> 00:09:34,095
Just letters, the last one
was about a year ago.
171
00:09:34,182 --> 00:09:38,099
You understand we'll have
to scan you to be sure.
172
00:09:38,186 --> 00:09:41,755
Is that necessary?
I'm telling you the truth.
173
00:09:41,842 --> 00:09:44,235
Perhaps. Perhaps not.
174
00:09:44,322 --> 00:09:46,716
Look, if she doesn't want
to be scanned--
175
00:09:46,803 --> 00:09:49,240
She's required to submit.
176
00:09:49,327 --> 00:09:51,939
If she's seen him
or heard from him
177
00:09:52,026 --> 00:09:54,811
'his mental fingerprints will be
in her thoughts.'
178
00:09:54,898 --> 00:09:57,597
[Kelsey]
The process is not pleasant.
179
00:09:57,684 --> 00:10:00,382
You may stay
or leave as you choose.
180
00:10:00,469 --> 00:10:03,385
[intense music]
181
00:10:22,839 --> 00:10:24,841
[groaning]
182
00:10:37,767 --> 00:10:39,073
That's enough.
183
00:10:41,510 --> 00:10:42,816
I said that's enough!
184
00:10:42,903 --> 00:10:45,470
[groaning]
185
00:10:50,127 --> 00:10:53,087
She's telling the truth.
She hasn't seen him.
186
00:10:53,174 --> 00:10:55,306
[Kelsey]
'Surprising, given
your prior involvement.'
187
00:10:57,657 --> 00:11:00,572
If Ironheart hasn't shown up
yet, he will.
188
00:11:00,660 --> 00:11:02,487
We must be informed at once.
189
00:11:02,574 --> 00:11:05,273
Do not attempt
any contact with him.
190
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,015
Especially you, Miss Winters.
191
00:11:08,102 --> 00:11:11,366
Do not approach him.
Do not speak to him.
192
00:11:12,236 --> 00:11:13,498
Is that clear?
193
00:11:14,586 --> 00:11:15,805
Yes.
194
00:11:17,677 --> 00:11:19,200
You can go now.
195
00:11:24,074 --> 00:11:26,511
What level of physical threat
does he represent?
196
00:11:26,598 --> 00:11:29,558
That's something else
you don't need to know.
197
00:11:29,645 --> 00:11:32,648
Just find him.
We'll do the rest.
198
00:11:32,735 --> 00:11:34,519
[intense music]
199
00:11:45,966 --> 00:11:49,534
Hello, Talia.
I've been looking for you.
200
00:11:53,669 --> 00:11:55,802
[intense music]
201
00:11:55,889 --> 00:11:58,065
Talia. Talia, wait, please!
202
00:12:00,154 --> 00:12:02,243
I can't see you.
The Psi Cops are here.
203
00:12:02,330 --> 00:12:04,811
I know. Listen, Talia..
204
00:12:04,898 --> 00:12:07,335
What did you do?
Why are they after you?
205
00:12:07,422 --> 00:12:08,815
Do you know what they did to me?
206
00:12:08,902 --> 00:12:10,642
Yes. Yes, I do.
207
00:12:10,730 --> 00:12:12,601
That's why I waited until
after they scanned you
208
00:12:12,688 --> 00:12:14,516
to make contact.
209
00:12:14,603 --> 00:12:17,606
But it's okay. We'll be safe
for a while, at least.
210
00:12:19,042 --> 00:12:22,785
I have to talk to you.
I-I need a place.
211
00:12:22,872 --> 00:12:26,180
A place where I can wait,
just for a little while.
212
00:12:26,267 --> 00:12:28,748
Why? What's going on, Jason?
213
00:12:28,835 --> 00:12:32,969
All I can say now is that
I can't let them find me.
214
00:12:33,056 --> 00:12:34,623
If they do,
then I'll have to kill them
215
00:12:34,710 --> 00:12:36,799
or they'll have to kill me.
216
00:12:36,886 --> 00:12:38,975
But it's not just us, Talia.
217
00:12:39,062 --> 00:12:42,413
There are thousands,
millions of lives are at stake.
218
00:12:42,500 --> 00:12:45,590
Just give me five minutes
to explain, that's all.
219
00:12:45,677 --> 00:12:48,463
Then, if you want me to leave,
I will.
220
00:12:50,465 --> 00:12:51,596
Please.
221
00:12:53,555 --> 00:12:56,036
If this is your way getting
at the commander through me--
222
00:12:56,123 --> 00:12:57,820
No, whether you believe it
or not
223
00:12:57,907 --> 00:13:00,083
I'm doing this
for your own safety.
224
00:13:00,170 --> 00:13:03,521
Sigma 957
is not a healthy place.
225
00:13:03,608 --> 00:13:05,393
Strange things happen there.
226
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,351
It's uninhabited.
227
00:13:07,438 --> 00:13:09,310
There's no sentient life
to threaten anyone.
228
00:13:09,397 --> 00:13:10,833
Nonetheless, it is not safe.
229
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:12,617
I have passed
through that sector.
230
00:13:12,704 --> 00:13:14,794
Take my word. Look elsewhere.
231
00:13:14,881 --> 00:13:17,797
I think you want Sigma 957
for yourself.
232
00:13:17,884 --> 00:13:19,799
The Narn government
doesn't have the resources
233
00:13:19,886 --> 00:13:21,888
to exploit a world
that far away.
234
00:13:21,975 --> 00:13:25,500
But you wanna hold on to it
anyway out of sheer spite.
235
00:13:25,587 --> 00:13:28,111
Considering what you were
probably told about me
236
00:13:28,198 --> 00:13:30,853
I'm sure
you do believe that.
237
00:13:30,940 --> 00:13:32,681
Despite your long acquaintance
with Sinclair
238
00:13:32,768 --> 00:13:34,857
you're new here, aren't you?
239
00:13:34,944 --> 00:13:36,816
Let me pass on
to you the one thing
240
00:13:36,903 --> 00:13:38,861
I've learned about this place.
241
00:13:41,124 --> 00:13:46,086
No one here is exactly
what he appears.
242
00:13:46,173 --> 00:13:49,611
Not Mollari, not Delenn..
243
00:13:49,698 --> 00:13:53,745
...not Sinclair and not me.
244
00:13:53,833 --> 00:13:58,011
My warning is sincere.
Ignore it at your own peril.
245
00:13:59,708 --> 00:14:01,188
Ambassador.
246
00:14:02,711 --> 00:14:04,365
If I have to,
I'll go over your head.
247
00:14:04,452 --> 00:14:07,107
I have contacts of my own
in the Narn Regime.
248
00:14:07,194 --> 00:14:09,936
Then I fear the commander
will miss you greatly
249
00:14:10,023 --> 00:14:13,200
when you fail to return
from Sigma 957.
250
00:14:17,117 --> 00:14:22,122
A year ago, I volunteered
for a Psi Corps experiment.
251
00:14:22,209 --> 00:14:26,126
It was an attempt to make
telepaths even stronger.
252
00:14:26,213 --> 00:14:29,651
Turn a P-5 into a P-10,
and a P-10 into..
253
00:14:30,565 --> 00:14:32,741
Into God knows what.
254
00:14:32,828 --> 00:14:34,177
Why?
255
00:14:34,264 --> 00:14:36,440
Because in this business,
whoever has
256
00:14:36,527 --> 00:14:39,879
the strongest telepath wins.
257
00:14:39,966 --> 00:14:42,403
The military wants
to scan the enemy.
258
00:14:42,490 --> 00:14:45,449
The enemy wants a telepath
strong enough to block the scan.
259
00:14:45,536 --> 00:14:48,017
And we want someone
who can cut through the block.
260
00:14:50,150 --> 00:14:52,630
They said it was necessary
to help protect Earth.
261
00:14:54,371 --> 00:14:58,158
Anyway, the experiments
went on for months.
262
00:14:58,245 --> 00:15:01,465
Genetic manipulation,
mutated strains of serotonin
263
00:15:01,552 --> 00:15:04,425
and acetylcholine to increase
neural processing.
264
00:15:04,512 --> 00:15:08,342
Five, ten, sometimes fifteen
injections a day. The pain was..
265
00:15:12,259 --> 00:15:14,609
Then one day, I woke up..
266
00:15:16,132 --> 00:15:19,222
...and I could see everything.
267
00:15:19,309 --> 00:15:23,009
It was as if my mind had been
a seed for all of those years
268
00:15:23,096 --> 00:15:26,012
and then suddenly it blossomed.
269
00:15:26,099 --> 00:15:28,710
I could cut through any block
without even trying.
270
00:15:28,797 --> 00:15:30,625
All I had to do was
to look at them
271
00:15:30,712 --> 00:15:32,235
to see what was inside.
272
00:15:34,063 --> 00:15:35,978
And that's when
I discovered the truth.
273
00:15:38,633 --> 00:15:41,375
Talia, do you remember
the T-K tests
274
00:15:41,462 --> 00:15:44,378
that you took just before
you graduated from the academy?
275
00:15:44,465 --> 00:15:47,598
Of course, I used an old penny
I've had since I was a girl.
276
00:15:47,685 --> 00:15:50,166
I tried it for days to make it
move with my thoughts.
277
00:15:50,253 --> 00:15:52,038
And I couldn't do it.
278
00:15:52,125 --> 00:15:55,955
Only one in every 1000 humans
has telepathic abilities.
279
00:15:56,042 --> 00:15:58,261
Only one in every
10,000 telepaths
280
00:15:58,348 --> 00:16:00,046
has telekinetic abilities
281
00:16:00,133 --> 00:16:02,004
and half of them
are clinically insane.
282
00:16:03,745 --> 00:16:06,704
You see that was the real
purpose behind the experiment.
283
00:16:06,791 --> 00:16:11,840
To create a stable telekinetic.
And it worked, Talia.
284
00:16:11,927 --> 00:16:14,625
It worked beyond everyone's
wildest dreams.
285
00:16:16,323 --> 00:16:18,542
That is why I cannot go back.
286
00:16:20,588 --> 00:16:22,720
Even if it means letting them
kill me.
287
00:16:28,770 --> 00:16:31,425
Commander, I just
got a lead on Ironheart.
288
00:16:31,512 --> 00:16:33,209
We ran a check on the incoming
ships and it turns out
289
00:16:33,296 --> 00:16:34,689
one of them
was a stolen transport.
290
00:16:34,776 --> 00:16:36,560
- Where's it from?
- Sector 15.
291
00:16:36,647 --> 00:16:38,475
That puts it two jumps
away from the station.
292
00:16:38,562 --> 00:16:39,911
I checked with Bester,
that match is the last known
293
00:16:39,999 --> 00:16:41,609
location for Ironheart.
294
00:16:41,696 --> 00:16:43,872
Assuming he hasn't booked
passage on another transport
295
00:16:43,959 --> 00:16:45,439
he'll need a place to stay.
296
00:16:45,526 --> 00:16:47,441
I'm already on it,
50 guest quarters were rented
297
00:16:47,528 --> 00:16:49,921
in the last 24 hours,
I'm having everyone checked.
298
00:16:50,009 --> 00:16:53,012
I want that guy found and out
of here as fast as possible.
299
00:16:53,099 --> 00:16:55,275
I don't like Psi Cops nosing
around up here.
300
00:16:55,362 --> 00:16:56,972
There's just something creepy
about them.
301
00:16:57,059 --> 00:16:58,974
The way they look at you
like you're some kind of bug.
302
00:17:03,109 --> 00:17:05,198
Commander.
303
00:17:05,285 --> 00:17:09,506
Just 50 quarters to search.
Good.
304
00:17:09,593 --> 00:17:11,073
That should help narrow it down.
305
00:17:14,685 --> 00:17:17,123
Anatomically impossible,
Mr. Garibaldi
306
00:17:18,559 --> 00:17:21,953
but you're welcome to try.
Anytime.
307
00:17:23,433 --> 00:17:25,044
Anywhere.

clear channel to Narn Military
Headquarters.
319
00:18:09,175 --> 00:18:12,961
I require a Frazi-class
heavy fighter for a mission.
320
00:18:13,048 --> 00:18:15,485
Destination Sigma 957.
321
00:18:17,748 --> 00:18:20,229
Make sure it's well-armed.
322
00:18:23,711 --> 00:18:27,149
I thought they wanted
telekinetics for big jobs.
323
00:18:27,236 --> 00:18:29,978
Heavy construction
and zero gravity or defense.
324
00:18:30,065 --> 00:18:33,112
I mean, imagine, a telekinetic
shield as a defense
325
00:18:33,199 --> 00:18:36,811
against beam weapons,
for-for diplomats or presidents.
326
00:18:36,898 --> 00:18:38,856
But they didn't want big.
327
00:18:38,943 --> 00:18:42,251
No, they wanted mental control
over small objects
328
00:18:42,338 --> 00:18:43,905
the smaller the better.
329
00:18:43,992 --> 00:18:45,298
Jason, that doesn't
make any sense.
330
00:18:45,385 --> 00:18:47,126
No? Think about it.
331
00:18:47,213 --> 00:18:51,217
You want to assassinate someone,
so you bring in a telekinetic.
332
00:18:51,304 --> 00:18:54,307
He reaches into the person's
throat, and then gently
333
00:18:54,394 --> 00:18:56,613
quietly, with a thought..
334
00:18:56,700 --> 00:18:59,790
...he pinches
the carotid artery shut.
335
00:18:59,877 --> 00:19:03,054
The blood stops,
the brain starves..
336
00:19:03,142 --> 00:19:07,624
...the target dies
and then you just let go.
337
00:19:07,711 --> 00:19:11,498
Murder without a trace.
No fingerprints, no poisons.

Oh, my God.

00:19:13,108 --> 00:19:15,893
But they didn't understand,
Talia.

- The power, how far it..
- Jason.
341
00:19:19,593 --> 00:19:22,813
- What is it?
- Get out. Please, quickly.

00:19:36,653 --> 00:19:37,959
What the hell?
347
00:19:39,656 --> 00:19:40,744
Mind quake.
348
00:19:40,831 --> 00:19:43,312
[rumbling]
349
00:19:53,409 --> 00:19:54,454
[intense music]
350
00:19:56,238 --> 00:19:57,892
Have you got a fix on the source
of that disturbance?
351
00:19:57,979 --> 00:20:00,634
Yeah, level 16, about three
sections further down.
352
00:20:00,721 --> 00:20:03,332
Just one problem. Only way there
is to go through that.
353
00:20:04,290 --> 00:20:06,117
[buzzing]
354
00:20:06,205 --> 00:20:07,684
- What is it?
- I don't know.
355
00:20:07,771 --> 00:20:09,469
But it has got level 16
completely surrounded.
356
00:20:09,556 --> 00:20:12,689
360 degrees.
We can't get past it.
357
00:20:12,776 --> 00:20:14,735
When we asked Bester what level
of physical threat this guy
358
00:20:14,822 --> 00:20:17,433
represents he said he was
on a need-to-know basis.
359
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,609
You asked me right now,
we need to know.
360
00:20:21,655 --> 00:20:24,048
[music continues]

Alright. Let's get this show
on the road.
367
00:21:02,609 --> 00:21:04,219
We had our orders.
368
00:21:04,306 --> 00:21:06,569
Bester, I don't care if you had
a personal message from God
369
00:21:06,656 --> 00:21:07,962
complete with stone tablets.
370
00:21:08,049 --> 00:21:10,007
You lied to me,
you withheld information
371
00:21:10,094 --> 00:21:11,574
and put this station at risk.
372
00:21:11,661 --> 00:21:13,359
Call me crazy, but don't you
think it might have helped
373
00:21:13,446 --> 00:21:15,056
for us to know
what we're facing?
374
00:21:15,143 --> 00:21:17,058
We were doing
what we thought was best.
375
00:21:17,145 --> 00:21:19,016
You were wrong
and because of that I've got
376
00:21:19,103 --> 00:21:21,280
a half-dozen wounded men
on a section of Blue 16
377
00:21:21,367 --> 00:21:23,151
that's turned into
a no mans land.
378
00:21:23,238 --> 00:21:25,196
Every corridor and transport
tube in to there
379
00:21:25,284 --> 00:21:27,068
is blocked
by some kind of curtain.
380
00:21:27,155 --> 00:21:29,766
Now I want the truth,
and I want it now.
381
00:21:29,853 --> 00:21:34,510
Mr. Ironheart is no longer
what you or I would consider..
382
00:21:35,903 --> 00:21:37,470
...entirely human.
383
00:21:37,557 --> 00:21:39,080
Then what is he?
384
00:21:40,690 --> 00:21:41,822
We don't know.
385
00:21:45,956 --> 00:21:48,394
[electric crackling]
386
00:21:50,265 --> 00:22:04,540
Be still.
387
00:22:07,369 --> 00:22:09,023
After the last phase
of the experiment
388
00:22:09,110 --> 00:22:11,417
Ironheart began
showing signs of stress
389
00:22:11,504 --> 00:22:13,897
paranoia, psychosis.
390
00:22:13,984 --> 00:22:16,465
One night,
he slipped out of his room
391
00:22:16,552 --> 00:22:19,555
killed the head researcher,
and escaped.
392
00:22:19,642 --> 00:22:22,123
At each step of the way,
his telekinetic abilities
393
00:22:22,210 --> 00:22:24,908
have grown stronger,
more violent.
394
00:22:24,995 --> 00:22:27,955
In his enhanced state,
he's valuable commodity.
395
00:22:28,042 --> 00:22:29,304
If word got out
other governments
396
00:22:29,391 --> 00:22:31,088
might try to grab him first.
397
00:22:31,175 --> 00:22:35,092
We couldn't take that chance.
It was a calculated risk.
398
00:22:35,179 --> 00:22:38,444
Good old Psi Corps. You guys
never cease to amaze me.
399
00:22:38,531 --> 00:22:40,576
All the more of fiber
Jack The Ripper.
400
00:22:40,663 --> 00:22:41,664
What do you do
in your spare time?
401
00:22:41,751 --> 00:22:43,100
Juggle babies over a fire pit?
402
00:22:43,187 --> 00:22:44,972
Oops, there goes another
calculated risk.
403
00:22:45,059 --> 00:22:46,974
You're not helping
the situation.
404
00:22:47,061 --> 00:22:49,411
Lady, you are the situation.

'We've seen how powerful he is.'
406
00:22:51,195 --> 00:22:53,502
How did just the you two of you
plan to stop him?
407
00:22:53,589 --> 00:22:55,896
During the experiment
Ironheart was programmed
408
00:22:55,983 --> 00:22:59,769
with a fail-safe code that will
shut him down, put him to sleep.
409
00:22:59,856 --> 00:23:03,643
It has to be sent by a telepath
directly into his brain.
410
00:23:03,730 --> 00:23:05,340
He's got to have defenses.
411
00:23:05,427 --> 00:23:07,298
Between the two of us,
we are strong enough
412
00:23:07,386 --> 00:23:10,606
to burrow past his defenses
and take him down.
413
00:23:10,693 --> 00:23:12,391
But we have to be
in the line of sight to do it.
414
00:23:13,348 --> 00:23:15,350
You have two choices.
415
00:23:15,437 --> 00:23:18,788
'Let us take him down our way,
or you'll have to kill him'
416
00:23:18,875 --> 00:23:21,487
before he blows out this station
and everyone on it.
417
00:23:23,706 --> 00:23:26,056

420
00:23:47,208 --> 00:23:51,908
Jason, if you can hear me,
this won't work.
421
00:23:53,910 --> 00:23:55,651
I need to talk to you, Jason.
422
00:23:57,436 --> 00:23:58,741
Please.
423

Jason.

[sighs]
429
00:24:39,739 --> 00:24:42,481
I thought that seeing you
430
00:24:42,568 --> 00:24:44,395
being with you again
would be enough.
431
00:24:45,919 --> 00:24:49,662
Help me hold it together,
shut out the voices.
432
00:24:51,490 --> 00:24:56,233
Just rest for a little while
before the end.
433
00:24:57,757 --> 00:25:00,324
Before..
434
00:25:00,411 --> 00:25:05,416
I shouldn't have come.
I-I put you at risk.. Everyone.
435
00:25:05,504 --> 00:25:08,245
I never meant..
I-I never wanted..
436
00:25:09,377 --> 00:25:12,598
I know. I know.
437
00:25:12,685 --> 00:25:16,384
We all thought Psi Corps was
controlled by the government
438
00:25:16,471 --> 00:25:18,473
but that's changing.
439
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,432
The corps starting to pull
the strings behind the scene.
440
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:25,175
They're more powerful
than you can begin to imagine.
441
00:25:25,262 --> 00:25:28,962
Telepaths make the ultimate
blackmailers, Talia.
442
00:25:29,049 --> 00:25:33,444
I-I have seen it all.
And I see it all.
443
00:25:33,532 --> 00:25:35,925
- Jason..
- There is no more Jason.
444
00:25:37,623 --> 00:25:39,581
I am something else.
445
00:25:40,843 --> 00:25:43,193
I am becoming..
446
00:25:44,804 --> 00:25:47,894
- Becoming what?
- Everything.

Commander.
I need to talk to you.
460
00:26:45,778 --> 00:26:48,911
- I've seen Jason.
- What? Where?
461
00:26:48,998 --> 00:26:50,870
It's a long story
and we don't have much time.
462
00:26:50,957 --> 00:26:53,176
We need to talk privately
and quickly.
463
00:27:00,531 --> 00:27:03,534
Jason's changing,
his telekinetic abilities
464
00:27:03,622 --> 00:27:06,276
are growing faster
than he anticipated.
465
00:27:06,363 --> 00:27:08,278
It's almost beyond his control.
466
00:27:08,365 --> 00:27:09,802
He doesn't want to
endanger the station.
467
00:27:09,889 --> 00:27:11,499
And doesn't wanna hurt anyone.
468
00:27:11,586 --> 00:27:14,415
But what he's becoming
doesn't leave him much choice.
469
00:27:14,502 --> 00:27:17,461
He wants to see you,
alone and unarmed.
470
00:27:17,548 --> 00:27:19,725
He'll drop his defenses
but only for you.
471
00:27:19,812 --> 00:27:22,336
I know it's asking you
to take a terrible chance
472
00:27:22,423 --> 00:27:24,599
but it's only one we've got.
473
00:27:24,686 --> 00:27:27,167
Alright. Where and when?
474
00:27:27,254 --> 00:27:28,734
Blue 12 in one hour.
475
00:27:28,821 --> 00:27:31,650
Talia, what's between you
and Jason?
476
00:27:31,737 --> 00:27:34,827
- Why did he come here?
- To see me.
477
00:27:36,698 --> 00:27:37,917
We were lovers.
478
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,051
He was everything to me.

00:27:42,138 --> 00:27:46,882
The perfect model of what it
meant to be in the Corps.
480
00:27:46,969 --> 00:27:50,233
Do you know what it's like when
telepaths make love, commander?
481
00:27:52,148 --> 00:27:56,892
You drop every defense
and it's all mirrors..
482
00:27:56,979 --> 00:27:58,764
...reflecting
each other's feelings
483
00:27:59,939 --> 00:28:02,942

...your souls mix.
486
00:28:11,602 --> 00:28:14,605
And it's a feeling so profound
487
00:28:14,693 --> 00:28:16,738
it makes you hurt.
488
00:28:21,830 --> 00:28:24,050
It's the only moment
in a telepath's life

00:28:24,137 --> 00:28:26,226
when you no longer
hear the voices.
490
00:28:29,751 --> 00:28:31,753
He came to say goodbye,
commander.

00:28:33,929 --> 00:28:35,670

over thought itself.

00:30:44,930 --> 00:30:49,021
Not mind over matter,
mind over energy.
521
00:30:50,544 --> 00:30:53,286
I was suddenly able
to influence objects
522
00:30:53,373 --> 00:30:55,854
that were smaller
and smaller.
523
00:30:55,941 --> 00:31:00,380
Molecules, atoms, neutrons.
524
00:31:00,467 --> 00:31:04,688
I look at you, commander,
and I see not a man
525
00:31:04,775 --> 00:31:07,604
but a galaxy
of subatomic particles
526
00:31:07,691 --> 00:31:10,303
which I can pull apart
and rearrange
527
00:31:10,390 --> 00:31:12,479
with a casual thought.
528
00:31:12,566 --> 00:31:15,438
This is a power
we were never meant to have.
529
00:31:15,525 --> 00:31:17,266
We're not ready for it.
530
00:31:17,353 --> 00:31:19,921
If the Psi Cops take him back,
they'll dissect him.
531
00:31:20,008 --> 00:31:21,792
Taking him apart to find out
what combination of drugs
532
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,577
release this power.
533
00:31:23,664 --> 00:31:26,754
Can you imagine, commander,
what they would do with it?
534
00:31:26,841 --> 00:31:28,582
What anyone would do with it?
535
00:31:28,669 --> 00:31:30,671
Which is exactly why they say
you shouldn't be allowed
536
00:31:30,758 --> 00:31:33,021
to leave here alive.
537
00:31:33,108 --> 00:31:35,154
Why should I trust you
to not misuse this?
538
00:31:35,241 --> 00:31:37,156
I've already
had six people hurt.
539
00:31:37,243 --> 00:31:42,770
An accident. At each new level,
it takes me a while to adjust.
540
00:31:42,857 --> 00:31:45,033
I have to fight
every minute to control
541
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,079
the forces in my head.
542
00:31:47,166 --> 00:31:49,429
If I'm distracted
for even a second--
543
00:31:49,516 --> 00:31:51,474
What about the researcher
you killed?
544
00:31:51,561 --> 00:31:53,476
I didn't want to.
545
00:31:53,563 --> 00:31:57,132
But he was the only one
who could replicate the process.
546
00:31:57,219 --> 00:32:00,135
There must never be
any more like me.
547
00:32:01,615 --> 00:32:04,444
I mean you no harm, commander.
548
00:32:04,531 --> 00:32:08,709
If I did, I could vaporize you
right now with a single thought.
549
00:32:09,884 --> 00:32:13,061
Please, you must believe me.
550
00:32:17,196 --> 00:32:20,982
Assuming I do,
what is it you want from me?
551
00:32:21,069 --> 00:32:26,814
Your help and your trust.
I need to get away from here.
552
00:32:26,901 --> 00:32:30,209
I need time to finish becoming
553
00:32:31,775 --> 00:32:33,125
and then I'll be gone.
554
00:32:34,996 --> 00:32:36,650
Please.
555
00:32:38,217 --> 00:32:39,348
[sighs]
556
00:32:41,046 --> 00:32:43,439
- Sinclair to C and C.
- This is C and C.
557
00:32:43,526 --> 00:32:45,398
- Are you alright, commander?
- Condition green.
558
00:32:45,485 --> 00:32:47,661
- Is Garibaldi there?
- Right here.

No, no, I refuse.
594
00:34:47,781 --> 00:34:49,609
I am not going back with you.

what you're doing!

00:34:57,356 --> 00:35:00,968
Commander, we have to hurry.
There's not much..
598
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:05,929
The fail-safe code.
They're trying to shut him down.
599
00:35:07,757 --> 00:35:11,457

him. He's losing control.

00:35:14,895 --> 00:35:15,896

- I won't go.
- Leave him alone.

Please, no.
Don't make me do this.

You cannot harm me.
611

dreamed a dream like mine.

- Nothing.

He's not moving
to the jump-gate.
622
00:36:40,110 --> 00:36:41,764

[Jason]
I have become.
629
00:37:23,328 --> 00:37:27,941
In memory of love,
I give you a gift.
630
00:37:28,028 --> 00:37:31,031
The only gift I have to give.
631
00:37:33,903 --> 00:37:35,905
[instrumental music]
632
00:37:45,175 --> 00:37:47,482
Goodbye, commander.
633
00:37:47,569 --> 00:37:51,312
I will see you again...
in a million years.
634
00:37:55,969 --> 00:37:58,101
You realize of course
my superiors
635
00:37:58,188 --> 00:38:00,016
will believe none of this?
636
00:38:00,103 --> 00:38:03,150
Yes, especially since,
in about an hour
637
00:38:03,237 --> 00:38:05,370
we'll have a small accident
in data storage
638
00:38:05,457 --> 00:38:07,676
that'll erase
the file you just saw.
639
00:38:07,763 --> 00:38:11,114
- So what do you suggest?
- Something close to the truth.
640
00:38:11,201 --> 00:38:13,378
That Ironheart's ship
escaped Babylon 5
641
00:38:13,465 --> 00:38:15,162
but exploded before it could
enter the jump gate.
642
00:38:15,249 --> 00:38:16,729
And if I refuse?
643
00:38:16,816 --> 00:38:19,384
Then my report will mention
how you lied to us
644
00:38:19,471 --> 00:38:20,863
endangered the station
645
00:38:20,950 --> 00:38:22,125
and through
your interference caused
646
00:38:22,212 --> 00:38:23,823
the death of your fellow
Psi Cop.
647
00:38:25,215 --> 00:38:26,913
Not much of a choice, is it?
648
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,568
It gets better,
your report will indicate that
649
00:38:29,655 --> 00:38:31,352
Talia Winters
was not responsible
650
00:38:31,439 --> 00:38:33,311
for her actions
in helping Ironheart.
651
00:38:33,398 --> 00:38:35,095
That she was under
his mental control
652
00:38:35,182 --> 00:38:37,358
and should not be penalized
for her actions.
653
00:38:37,445 --> 00:38:39,534
- That's a lie.
- Yes, it is.
654
00:38:39,621 --> 00:38:41,319
What's your point?
655
00:38:41,406 --> 00:38:44,583
There's a transport leaving for
Earth in 20 minutes, Mr. Bester.
656
00:38:44,670 --> 00:38:45,975
Be on it.
657
00:38:57,291 --> 00:38:58,771
Be seeing you, commander.
658
00:39:03,776 --> 00:39:05,517
You figuring on telling
the senator what Ironheart said
659
00:39:05,604 --> 00:39:08,041
about Psi Corps trying to
control everything inside?
660
00:39:08,128 --> 00:39:11,261
I don't know. I'm not sure
what it would accomplish.
661
00:39:11,349 --> 00:39:15,918
He was feverish. Paranoid.
Maybe it's true, maybe it isn't.
662
00:39:16,005 --> 00:39:17,790
Without any evidence,
without Ironheart
663
00:39:17,877 --> 00:39:20,270
it's just
his word against the Corps.
664
00:39:20,358 --> 00:39:23,665
But I suggest we keep our eyes
open just in case.
665
00:39:23,752 --> 00:39:28,453
- Got that right. How's Talia?
- Better. Resting.
666
00:39:28,540 --> 00:39:30,716
Good, I wonder
what Ironheart meant
667
00:39:30,803 --> 00:39:32,848
when he said he gave her a gift?
668
00:39:32,935 --> 00:39:35,155
If I asked, do you think
she'd tell me?
669
00:39:35,242 --> 00:39:36,243
No.
670
00:39:37,287 --> 00:39:39,681
[instrumental music]
671
00:40:07,970 --> 00:40:10,016
[intense music]
672
00:40:10,103 --> 00:40:12,148
Ambassador!
Ambassador G'Kar?
673
00:40:12,235 --> 00:40:14,281
Ah, Ms. Sakai,
I'm pleased to see
674
00:40:14,368 --> 00:40:16,979
that you have returned safely
from your expedition.
675
00:40:17,066 --> 00:40:20,374
Yes, thanks to you.
Just one question.
676
00:40:20,461 --> 00:40:22,115
- Why?
- Why not?
677
00:40:22,202 --> 00:40:24,030
- It's not an answer.
- Oh, yes, it is.
678
00:40:24,117 --> 00:40:26,989
It's simply not an answer you
like or the answer you expect.
679
00:40:27,076 --> 00:40:28,426
There's a difference.
680
00:40:28,513 --> 00:40:31,298
Narns, humans, Centauri,
we all do what we do
681
00:40:31,385 --> 00:40:32,908
for the same reason
682
00:40:32,995 --> 00:40:35,868
because it seemed
like a good idea at the time.
683
00:40:35,955 --> 00:40:38,740
There was no profit,
no advantage in letting you fall
684
00:40:38,827 --> 00:40:41,961
to an untimely and most
uncomfortable death.
685
00:40:42,048 --> 00:40:45,530
It would distress the commander
to no good effect.
686
00:40:45,617 --> 00:40:48,446
So once again we return to,
"Why not?"
687
00:40:49,621 --> 00:40:51,666
I told you before you left
688
00:40:51,753 --> 00:40:56,105
no one here
is entirely what they appear.
689
00:40:56,192 --> 00:40:58,804
If I surprised you,
all the better.
690
00:41:00,283 --> 00:41:01,546
Good day, Ms. Sakai.
691
00:41:02,895 --> 00:41:04,331
Ambassador.
692
00:41:06,464 --> 00:41:10,772
While I was out there,
I saw something.
693
00:41:10,859 --> 00:41:12,470
What was it?
694
00:41:14,863 --> 00:41:15,995
What is this?
695
00:41:17,649 --> 00:41:19,825
- An ant.
- Ant?
696
00:41:19,912 --> 00:41:22,218
So much gets shipped out from
Earth on commercial transports
697
00:41:22,305 --> 00:41:23,785
it's hard to keep them out.
698
00:41:23,872 --> 00:41:27,310
Yeah, I have just picked it up
on the tip of my glove.
699
00:41:27,397 --> 00:41:32,185
If I put it down again
and it asks another ant
700
00:41:32,272 --> 00:41:33,882
"What was that?"
701
00:41:33,969 --> 00:41:37,320
[chuckles]
how would it explain?
702
00:41:37,407 --> 00:41:40,454
There are things in
the universe billions of years
703
00:41:40,541 --> 00:41:42,717
older than either of our races.
704
00:41:42,804 --> 00:41:46,155
They are vast, timeless
705
00:41:46,242 --> 00:41:48,680
and if they're aware
of us at all..
706
00:41:48,767 --> 00:41:51,378
...it is as little
more than ants.
707
00:41:51,465 --> 00:41:55,077
And we have as much chance
of communicating with them..
708
00:41:55,164 --> 00:41:57,906
...as an ant has with us.
709
00:41:57,993 --> 00:42:00,953
We know, we've tried.
710
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,085
And we've learned
that we can either stay out
711
00:42:03,172 --> 00:42:05,653
from underfoot or be stepped on.
712
00:42:08,351 --> 00:42:11,703
That's it?
That's all you know?
713
00:42:11,790 --> 00:42:14,532
Yes. They are a mystery.
714
00:42:15,968 --> 00:42:19,885
And I am both terrified
and reassured
715
00:42:19,972 --> 00:42:23,584
to know that there are still
wonders in the universe
716
00:42:23,671 --> 00:42:28,110
that we have not yet
explained everything.
717
00:42:28,197 --> 00:42:32,680
Whatever they are, Ms. Sakai,
they walk near Sigma 957.
718
00:42:32,767 --> 00:42:35,074
They must walk there alone.
