Welcome to the Babylon 5 (UK) episode guide! Don't be put off by the fact
|
|
that it has a UK bias though as most of the information (i.e. the actual
|
|
episode guide part and list of edits) is relevant to whatever country you
|
|
are in!
|
|
|
|
This guide is actually a portion of a much larger guide which I have split
|
|
up due to the growing size of the guide. To download other seasons look

SEASON 2 NARRATION
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
"The Babylon Project was our last, best, hope for peace. A self
|
|
contained world five miles long, located in neutral territory. A
|
|
place of commerce and diplomacy for a quarter of a million humans
|
|
and aliens. A shining beacon in space, all alone in the night. It
|
|
was the dawn of the third age of mankind, the year The Great War
|
|
came upon us all. This is the story of the last of the Babylon
|
|
stations. The year is 2259. The name of the place is Babylon 5."
|
|
|
|
- Captain John Sheridan
|
|
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
SEASON 2 FINALE CLOSING NARRATION
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
"It was the end of the Earth year 2259 and the war was upon us. As
|
|
anticipated, a few days after the Earth-Centauri treaty was
|
|
announced the Centauri widened their war to include many of the Non-
|
|
Aligned Worlds.
|
|
|
|
"And there was another war brewing closer to home. A personal one
|
|
whose cost would be higher than any of us could imagine...
|
|
|
|
"We came to this place because Babylon 5 was our last, best hope for
|
|
peace. By the end of 2259 we knew that it had failed. But in so
|
|
doing it became something greater. As the war expanded it became
|
|
our last, best hope for victory. Because sometimes peace is another
|
|
word for surrender, and because secrets has a way of getting out."
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
SHERIDAN: "The president feels the Minbari had too much influence over an
|
|
Earth Outpost. Times change."
|
|
HEDRONN: "And the day that a man such as yourself is given such a position
|
|
of this importance is a dark day indeed. We lost many of our
|
|
best warriors because of you... and we do not soon forget such
|
|
things. If there is a doom upon this station it's because you
|
|
brought it here."
|
|
|
|
Captain John Sheridan arrives on B5 to assume a command he isn't entirely
|
|
sure about. To complicate matters the Minbari do not agree with the
|
|
appointment of a man known to them as 'The Starkiller'. Sheridan also has
|
|
to deal with a renegade Minbari warship, the Trigati, which has been
|
|
sighted in the area, and when a Minbari is captured whilst attempting to
|
|
assassinate Delenn, the Trigati appears and threatens B5. Commander
|
|
Sinclair reaches an important destiny and the secret of his missing 24
|
|
hours at the Battle of the Line is revealed.

LONDO [laughs]: "Why don't you eliminate the entire Narn homeworld while
|
|
you're at it?"
|
|
MORDEN: "One thing at a time, Ambassador... One thing at a time."
|
|
|
|
Londo continues to plot his rise to power with the aid of Morden. G'Kar
|
|
arrives back on B5 with news of a powerful and terrible new enemy.
|
|
Sheridan deals with the loss of his wife with a little help from his
|
|
sister, and Delenn finally emerges from her chrysalis looking very
|
|
different. Garibaldi is finally revived from his coma and, with some help
|
|

ELRIC: "As I look at you, Ambassador Mollari, I see a great hand reaching
|
|
out of the stars. The hand is your hand. And I hear sounds - the
|
|
sounds of billions of people calling your name."
|
|
LONDO: "My followers?"
|
|
ELRIC: "Your victims."
|
|
|
|
Ivanova starts training in the finer points in being a diplomatic officer
|
|
and is promoted to commander. Her first test is to deal with the Drazi,
|
|
who have split into two groups and are fighting it out to find which group
|
|
will rule the other. Over 100 powerful Technomages, who use magic-like
|
|
science, arrive on the station and Londo makes a mistake by trying all
|
|
means to seek an audience with them. Garibaldi, still recovering from his
|
|
wounds and the fact that he was betrayed by his own second-in-command,
|
|
considers his future.

|
discover that something may be living in hyperspace. Dr. Franklin puts

Meanwhile Garibaldi arrests a lurker who can sense a coming doom. When an

thanks to the recent murder of over 5,000 Narn civilians, and fights

|
between the two races break out on B5. G'Kar, trying to get help from the

kills in self defense, but when another Minbari witnesses the fight and

|
|
Directed by: Mario DiLeo

Written by.: J. Michael Straczynski
|
|
|
|
CYNTHIA: "Do you think attacks of this nature put everyone onboard
|
|
Babylon 5 in unnecessary jeopardy?"
|
|
G'KAR: "We are already in far greater jeopardy than you can possibly
|
|
imagine."
|
|
|
|
Presented as a fictional newscast (complete with commercials), ISN does a
|
|
special "Thirty-Six Hours on Babylon 5" feature. Whilst there, they catch
|
|
the eruption of an armed space conflict between the Narns and Centauri.
|
|
ISN interviews Londo and G'Kar on the war between the two races and also
|
|
talks to the senior crew of B5 and Delenn, getting them to reveal their
|
|
personal thoughts. While Sheridan is forced to send out fighters to
|
|
protect B5, many people back on Earth are concerned about B5's
|

effectiveness.

Written by.: J. Michael Straczynski
|
|
|
|
SHERIDAN: "I want you to teach me how to fight them, how to beat them,

stop them."

As Sheridan sorts through information sent by his wife shortly before her
|
|
death, Garibaldi recognises one of the supposed fatalities - Morden, who
|
|
is on B5 at this very moment in time. Against all advice and regulations,
|
|
Sheridan detains Morden and questions him for hours, determined to find
|
|
out how he survived and how the disaster happened. Desperate for answers,
|
|
he tricks Talia Winters into helping him. When Delenn and Kosh reveal

to rule, to build empires."
|
|
|
|
Sheridan decides to investigate the Grey Sector, which is rumoured to be

haunted. While there he encounters a corpse of a trader which transfers

|
an alien spirit into him. He is left with many strange and disturbing

visions, and the disappearance of B4 may hold the key. Things do not go
|
|
well for Londo either when Urza, a lifelong friend, arrives on the station
|
|
asking for his help to restore his family's honour. Londo, unwilling to

Telepath Lyta Alexander returns to B5. Now part of a revolutionary

on board B5, and that the spy is a very important person onboard the

she is a spy as the person would have been programmed by a new Psi Corps

LONDO: "What? Are you mad? They will destroy our supply lines."

|
REFA: "Not if your forces are there waiting for them."

|
LONDO: "My forces? And where will all your generals be during this time?"

|
|
|
|
The Narns, running out of resources in the war against the Centauri,

decide on a last ditch attempt to stall the Centauri. A major strike is

the attack on the supply world and launch a surprise attack on the Narn

homeworld. The Narn eventually surrender, and Sheridan offers G'Kar

apologise to them?"
|
|
VIR: "I can't."
|
|
G'KAR: "Then I cannot forgive."

G'Kar tries to rally the Narns on B5, continuing his resistance effort
|

against the Centauri who have cut off all contact with the Narn homeworld.
|
|
Garibaldi helps G'Kar find an illegal arms supplier who is able to smuggle
