A bomber on the loose, monks in the corridors, and Londo and G'Kar trapped in an elevator with nowhere to go β€” this week on Babble On, Jenny, Jenn, Gus, and Ali break down Babylon 5 Season 3 Episode 2, "Convictions." It's a standalone episode that somehow still manages to be essential viewing, and the crew gets into why.

We discuss the real-world shadow of the Oklahoma City bombing hanging over this episode, the parallel between G'Kar and the bomber as two characters with nothing left to lose, and why the Londo/G'Kar elevator scene is already one of the most talked-about moments in the series. Plus: the introduction of Brother Theo, Bruce's extremely creative use of a communicator, and a lot of appreciation for Peter Jurasik and Andreas Katsulas doing what they do best.
