Sunday is back! Join us as she shares some exciting tales from her time in Vegas before we dive deep into Babylon 5 Season 4, Episode 'Conflict of Interest.' This week, we explore the dramatic fallout from Garibaldi's sudden resignation as Chief of Security, forcing him to improvise alone in a life-threatening situation. Meanwhile, Ivanova struggles with a power shortage despite having all the equipment for her 'Voice of the Resistance' broadcast – but what does Zathras have to do with it? Plus, Garibaldi faces a blast from the past in the form of a former flame, but can she truly be trusted? Tune in for all the analysis and discussion!

As tensions rise across the galaxy, long-divergent paths begin to collide. On Mars, Franklin and Marcus wrestle with growing mistrust as rogue factions of the resistance launch unsanctioned—and increasingly violent—attacks, threatening to undermine their cause. Meanwhile, Sheridan, forced into an unwanted leave, struggles to find a way to counter President Clark’s propaganda machine, desperate to expose ISN’s lies before their deception poisons Earth entirely.

Elsewhere, Delenn walks a razor’s edge as she tries to avert a brewing civil war among the Minbari castes—but whispers of conspiracy suggest that old allies of the Shadows may have laid a deadly trap. And when Sheridan extends aid to the Martian resistance, will they embrace his help, or see it as another layer of deception?

Trust is fragile. Alliances are shifting. And in the shadows, the real battle for the future has only just begun.

As Sheridan struggles with the unwelcome quiet of a mandatory day off, Franklin and Marcus embark on a perilous mission to Mars, where their attempts to contact the resistance are met with suspicion and hostility. Tensions rise further when Garibaldi's controversial ISN interview angers Sheridan, even as Delenn tries to bridge cultural gaps with a new, personal ritual.

Summoned to Minbar, Delenn undergoes a sacred, memory-drawing ritual to justify her past, which may expose her culpability in a tragic event against humans. The trial's outcome could determine her future with Babylon 5 and Sheridan. Elsewhere, Franklin and Marcus journey to Mars to establish vital contact with the resistance movement.

"The Illusion of Truth" (S4, E8): Babylon 5 faces its biggest public relations challenge yet when a probing ISN news crew arrives to scrutinize the station. Commander Sheridan grants them unprecedented access, hoping for transparency, but their efforts are complicated by Garibaldi's increasingly vocal dissent, Dr. Franklin's perceived secrets, and the controversial relationship between Sheridan and Delenn. As the crew braces for the highly anticipated broadcast, they must confront the stark reality of how Earth-centric media can distort the truth.

Babylon 5 – Season 4, Episode 14: “Lines of Communication”

After the Shadow War's end, a fragile peace settles across the galaxy—but old rivalries and unfinished business threaten to unravel it all. As the crew of Babylon 5 savors a rare moment of calm, Earth launches its next move in the shadows. With the help of the sinister Psi Corps and the ever-manipulative Alfred Bester, EarthGov seeks to tarnish Babylon 5’s hard-won legitimacy and seize control of the forbidden Shadow technology left abandoned on Za’Ha’Dum.

As Sheridan and his allies scramble to counter Earth’s smear campaign, they must also contend with Bester’s hidden agenda. Is he truly acting on Earth’s behalf, or does he have a more personal—and dangerous—plan in motion? The fate of the station, the resistance, and perhaps even the remnants of Shadow power hang in the balance. Trust is scarce, enemies wear friendly faces, and the lines of communication are about to be tested like never before.

The final battle for the galaxy has begun, and more is at stake than ever before. On Centauri Prime, Lando finds himself in a desperate race against the clock, fighting to cleanse his homeworld of every last vestige of Shadow influence. His mission: avert the total annihilation of his species by the unforgiving Vorlons. Will his efforts be enough, or will he inadvertently seal the doom of the Centauri?

Across the cosmos, Sheridan, Delenn, and the beleaguered Alliance of Worlds fight a desperate, impossible war, striving to simply be heard by the ancient warring powers. But when they finally capture the attention of the Vorlons and Shadows, the consequences are catastrophic: Sheridan and Delenn are pulled into a direct, mind-bending confrontation – a telepathic battle of ideals that threatens to consume them both. Can Babylon 5 survive this final, impossible challenge, or will the galaxy succumb to pure, unyielding extremism?

In "The Long Night," Sheridan and his crew painstakingly orchestrate a high-stakes strategy to force the Shadows and Vorlons into a direct confrontation. Meanwhile, on Narn, Emperor Cartagia's preparations for G'Kar's execution intensify, while Londo races against time to remove Cartagia from power, desperate to prevent the Vorlons from annihilating Centauri Prime under the Shadow's influence. The episode also delves into personal struggles, as Sheridan shares a deeply emotional moment with Ivanova, revealing her fear of being alone, and grapples with one of the most gut-wrenching decisions of his command, sending a Ranger on a perilous suicide mission to sway the Vorlons.

We take a brief break from Babylon 5 and discuss a few things on our minds going into the Holiday weekend.

We'll be back to our regular schedule next week!

In the pivotal episode "Falling Towards Apotheosis" from Season 4 of Babylon 5, the tension escalates as Captain Sheridan faces a critical decision with the Vorlon fleet advancing against the Shadows. Sheridan and Lorien devise a strategy to counter the Vorlons by targeting Ulkesh, a key Vorlon figure, aiming to blind their enemy and shift the balance of power.

On Centauri Prime, Londo Mollari presents Emperor Cartagia with a proposition, offering a legacy of remembrance post-ascension. However, Cartagia's true intent is revealed: he plans to exploit the Shadows for his own divine ambition, indifferent to the impending destruction. The episode culminates in uncertainty, leaving viewers questioning the outcome of Sheridan's confrontation, the fate of Babylon 5, the destiny of Centauri Prime, and Sheridan's survival.
