G’Kar leans to his dismay, that the Narn government want to make him a leader. Franklin explains that the Narn Homeworld is ‘up in arms’. Franklin joins G’Kar in his quarters and jovially comments on the size of the crowd and G’Kar explains that he isn’t taking any callers in the hope of getting some peace. one particular spooky looking one offers G’Kar a statue of himself – rather insistently. Poor G’Kar is continually being harassed by some wacky Narn followers. This is a tricky part of the job for Sheridan, he doesn’t want to loose Garibaldi’s friendship, and lets face it, when the cards are on the table, most of us would want good ol’ Baldi on our side. Sheridan, quickly replies, “Erm… I didn’t quite say that.” He explains that Garibaldi is being put on suspension. This was a heartfelt exchange between these two friends and just as it was getting a little too mushy, Garibaldi asks, cheekily, “…so I’m not fired then?” He goes on to explain that he wished Garibaldi could have come to him with his problem, or at least confided in him. But I am very disappointed, Michael.” (Why the hell NOT! I am.) I was… But Delenn has a…way of looking at things. Baldi admits that Sheridan has very good reason for being angry, but Sheridan continues, “…I’m not angry with you. After a brief and embarrassing pause, Garibaldi asks, “You knew?” Sheridan says that he’d suspected but that it was his fault (?). Sheridan dismisses everyone except Garibaldi. Sheridan exclaims, “Your drunk!” and immediately closes the meeting to the embarrassed satisfaction of Zack, Lockley, Franklin, Lyta, G’Kar and Delenn. The situation is made worse when Garibaldi stumbles while trying to settle down. Unfortunately the meeting required that he had prepared. Garibaldi was unsure about the time and rushes off. Meanwhile, Baldi is sat in his quarters quietly drinking himself into oblivion when Franklin reminds him that an important meeting is about to start. They are all carrying statues and chanting his name. She walks with him through Customs and G’Kar is greeted to his dismay, by lots of his ‘followers’. Lockley indicates that G’Kar will probably soon have enough on his plate. G’Kar is a little philosophical and mentions his sorrow for Londo’s predicament. The episode opens with a greeting to G’Kar from Lockley as he arrives of Babylon 5 from Centauri Prime. Soon there would be no more Babylon 5 and I couldn’t help feeling a little depressed. However, the feeling that this great saga was drawing to a close was overwhelming. The depressing inevitability of Londo’s situation, the scary effects of Lyta’s involvement with the Vorlons and that twit Byron, gives the impression of a saga REALLY hotting up.
