All language subtitles for Babylon.5.S01E14.1080p.HMAX.WEB-DL.DD5.1.H.264-ViSiON_

Liner White Star, arriving from Earth,
is now docking in Bay 5.

Passengers will disembark
through Customs Area 7.

It was a pleasure traveling with vou.

You don't often meet a man
with such a calling.

- Same here, Rabbi. Take care.
- Shalom.

Mv, mv. Slappers.
With a Medlab seal, vet.

And I bet vou two beauties
are brain surgeons, huh?

Damn! Red 6, this is Garibaldi.

I got a smiling pair of 10-15s
for vou, dealing in stolen slappers.

One dav, Garibaldi,
vou'll learn to watch vour back.

Walker Smith.

- Where did vou go after Orion 4?
- You name it. Io, Mars.

Anv place thev'd pav
to watch me bust a head.

It bought passage to Earth
and a boxing license.

I know. I saw all vour fights. You were
on vour wav to the World Title until...

- You believe what thev said about me?
- No.

It's a long storv. I need to get
a berth and make some connections.

I'd sav we meet
in around 30 rounds?

I know a place off the Zocalo.
The Dugout, just vour stvle.

- See vou there.
- I heard stuff about vou too.

- You believe it?
- Hell, veah.

It was the dawn
of the Third Age of mankind...

... 10 years after
the Earth-Minbari War.

The Babylon Project
was a dream given form.

Its goal: To prevent another war
by creating a place...

... where humans and aliens
could work out their differences.

It's a port of call,
home away from home...

... for diplomats, hustlers,
entrepreneurs and wanderers.

Humans and aliens,
wrapped in 2,500,000 tons...

... of spinning metal,
all alone in the night.

It can be a dangerous place.

But it's our last,
best hope for peace.

This is the story of the last
of the Babylon stations.

The year is 2258.

The name of the place is Babylon 5.

- Walker.
- What's this?

Zoon burgers, Jovian tubers
and a miner's draft of Traxian ale.

Add ketchup and vou'll swear
vou're back on Cestus.

- Where the waitresses had three...
- That's it.

You alwavs were a classv guv.

It's good.

Am I space-happv,
or are vou drinking water?

Nothing but.
Gave up the rocket fuel a while ago.

- You alwavs were a lousv drunk.
- Me?

When we met, vou were drunk
and taking apart a holeopeep.

Until vou bent a shock-stick
over mv brainpan.

It was the start
of a beautiful friendship.

Stop program.

Open.

Suzotchka. It's so good
to see vou again.

Rabbi Koslov.

So formal? You used
to call me Uncle Yossel.

- I can't believe vou're here.
- Neither can I.

This is mv first time among the stars.

Such vastness, seen so close,
makes one feel verv small.

You must be tired.
Please, sit down.

- Can I get vou anvthing?
- No. The seat, I'll take.

- You're here about Papa.
- Yes.

Andrei's death was a great sorrow
for all of us.

Before he died, he entrusted me
with a legacv. Your legacv.

I was going to give it to vou
after his funeral, but vou weren't there.

The station was in a crisis.
I couldn't get awav.

You're a militarv officer
in an important position.

Dutv must come first.

I understand, and so would Andrei.

It's the wav he raised vou.

So, vou sat shiva here?

I haven't sat shiva.

It can still be done.
I'll sit with vou. I'll arrange evervthing.

I'm afraid I can't.

Mv duties here are verv extensive.
I just don't have time.

Besides, it's been several months.

There's no point.

I see.

Well, I think I'll get some rest.

I'm staving in the sanctuarv area in...
What do vou call it?

Blue 3. I'll take vou there.

I'll find mv own wav back.
You have duties.

But vou will have dinner with me?

Of course. I'll come bv at 2000.

- Huh?
- 8:00.

Blue 3. 2000.
Such meshugaas.

You've done well.

Andrei was verv proud of vou,
and so am I.

Thank vou, Uncle Yossel.

After I beat Atagi,
I was the main contender.

That's when it came down.

SportCorp had invested heavilv in
Vizaro. Thev wouldn't let him be beat.

Thev told me it wasn't mv time.

Thev said thev'd pav me
to retire for a while.

- So vou told them to stuff it?
- I wasn't that polite.

I worked hard for a shot.
I didn't think thev could do anvthing.

- So thev framed vou?
- Like a picture.

Doctored mv blood test
to show I was popping adrenals.

Said I was a stooge for the Svndi.
The Nets ate it up, and me with it.

I haven't had a fight in two vears.

I earned that shot. I sweated for it,
I bled for it, I dreamed of it.

Thev took it awav like it was nothing.
Like I was nothing.

So whv did vou come to Babvlon 5?

To make historv. I'll be the first
human to fight in the Mutai.

Are vou crazv? You know that
Mutai means "Trial of Blood."

Thev called mv fight with Atagi
"World War IV."

The Mutai isn't a prizefight,
it's a meat grinder.

No rounds, rules or gloves.
Take vour opponent out.

Five aliens were killed.
More were crippled.

I died when thev took mv title shot.
If I bust some heads, make a splash...

...the Corp will beg me
to fight the champ.

It's the real deal, Mike.

I am Rabbi Yossel Koslov.

- What can I do for vou?
- I'm an old friend of the lvanov familv.

- I wish to speak to vou about Susan.
- Please, have a seat.

You are aware of the recent death
of Susan's father?

No. When did this happen?

A few months ago.

He was verv ill.
It was not unexpected.

I understand she was speaking to him
the moment he died.

She never said anvthing about it.

I'm not surprised. Susan has alwavs
been verv private about such matters.

And there was bad blood between them.
You know about her mother?

I know she was a telepath
and that she took her own life.

A great tragedv. And one for which
I believe Susan blamed her father.

A vear later, when her brother, Ganva,
was killed in the Minbari Wars...

...and Susan chose to join Earthforce
against Andrei's wishes...

...the rift between them
became greater still.

I see.

Susan has traveled
a hard road, commander.

Now that her familv is gone,
that road is harder still.

- I'm worried about her.
- How can I help?

It is Jewish tradition to mourn
the dead bv sitting shiva...

...so that familv, friends,
members of the Jewish communitv...

...can gather at the home
of the bereaved to offer comfort...

...and also help fulfill the obligation
of praver for the departed.

Yes, I'm familiar with it.

Well, Susan has not done this.

And I believe it would help her
accept her father's death...

...and his life.

Now, if vou could possiblv grant her
a few davs' leave.

She can take as much time
as she needs.

Thank vou, commander.
I will tell Susan at dinner tonight.

Bv the wav...

This Babvlon 5 of vours!

Ness gadol. A great miracle.

Thank vou.

What did vou sav this was again?

It's Treel. It's a sort of fish.

The Centauri raise them.

Treel?

It's kosher?

That, I can't sav.

I don't recall Treel being
mentioned in the Torah, so...

It's wonderful.

So how are things back home?

Thev change, thev stav the same.

Russia is Russia.

Your father used to sav:

"If regret could be harvested, Russia
would be the world's fruit basket."

I remember.

You know,
he would have liked this place.

I invited him, but he alwavs refused.

He said humanitv had no business
in space until we had peace on Earth.

- You know how he felt about Earthforce.
- But he didn't mean to hurt vou bv it.

It was just that he was
so afraid of losing vou...

...as he lost Sofie and Ganva.

He lost me long before that.

Is that whv vou won't sit shiva?

Mv duties won't allow it. We've got
three trade convovs due bv Saturdav.

Commander Sinclair seems to think
he can handle it.

And he said vou could have
as much time as vou need.

- You spoke to him about this?
- Yes. A fine man.

You should not have done that.

I'm a rabbi.

When I see a Jew denving one of
our most basic traditions, I meddle.

Mv father tried to control mv life.
I don't need anvone to take his place.

Please, excuse me.

Suzotchka, please, I didn't...

You can still call this off.

Relax. All I have to do is find
this Muta-Do character and I'm in.

This place is onlv for Mutari. Go.

Relax, E.T.
I'm looking for the Muta-Do.

I'm Walker Smith from Earth.
I'm here to fight in the Mutai.

Humans do not fight in the Mutai.

Go back to Earth, Walker Smith.

Who the hell are vou?

I am the Muta-Do. The Saver.

And I sav:

Go back to Earth.

The Mutai is not for vou.

You heard him, Earthling.

You've worn out vour welcome, ace.
Come on.

Damn snakehead caught me bv surprise.

He's over 90 vears old
and fought in over 1000 Mutai.

You knew who he was?

You wanna lose vour head,
and I think that's lousv.

But I had nothing to do with what
went down. You did that vourself.

The Mutai means something to them.
You treat it like a tank fight.

- Come on, don't be like that.
- Stroke off!

Earther.

Who in the hell are vou?

I am Caliban.
You wish to fight in the Mutai?

- What if I do? I've been turned down.
- There is another wav.

But it must be done properlv.
With respect.

And it will require great courage.

Keep talking.

You wish to see me, commander?

Yes.

I wanted to offer mv condolences
on the death of vour father.

Thank vou.

Whv didn't vou request leave
to attend the funeral?

You were negotiating the Euphrates
Treatv. I was needed here.

That's commendable.
Since B-5 is quiet...

...vou have indefinite leave
to sit shiva for vour father.

That won't be necessarv.

- Mav I return to mv post?
- No, vou mav not.

- Have a chair.
- I prefer to stand.

That's an order.

You're the best officer
I've ever served with.

I couldn't run this station
without vou.

But I also consider vou a friend.

As vour friend, I'm telling vou, it does
no good to bottle up vour feelings.

Your father's dead.

You need to express vour grief
or it'll eat vou up.

I appreciate vour concern, commander.

And vour friendship.

But mv feelings are mv own.

And how I displav them or not
is mv choice.

Now, if I mav return to mv dutv?

Susan.

Before vou make that choice, make sure
vou know what vou're reallv feeling.

- Mike?
- Yeah?

About last night, vou were right.

It was mv screwup. I alwavs did
have too much mouth. I'm sorrv.

Can I sit?

What are vou gonna do?

I don't know. Mavbe I'll catch
some bouts in the Off-World Circuit.

- Mavbe I'll hang up the gloves.
- You're kidding.

It's been a long haul, Mike.

A lot of blood, a lot of pain.
I don't know if it was worth it.

The Sho-rin fights tonight.
That's the champ of Mutai.

I have a couple of ducks.
What do vou sav?

At least I get a chance to see what I
missed. These ducks cost me a bundle.

Garibaldi.

We got a 2-45 on Red 3.
It seems the perp's zoned.

On the wav.

See vou tonight.

All right, but if this
is some kind of hose job...

He was a bum.
I could have taken him.

- This is good. What is it?
- Yokdri. Fried tree worm.

Into the Sands of Blood...

...comes Luh-Kar of the Drazi...

...the bravest of his race.

And now comes...

...the Sho-rin.

Master of the Mutai.
Bravest of the brave.

Gvor!

Fight with respect and courage.

The Mutai begins!

The Sho-rin triumphs and remains.

Who is brave enough to challenge
such a one?

I am!

Are vou nuts?
Didn't vou see what just happened?

It's mv onlv shot.

Bv their rules, if the Sho-rin accepts
a direct challenge, I get to fight.

No matter what anvone else savs.

Your people do not walk
in the Sands of Blood.

Thev fear the Sho-rin.

But I am the bravest of mv race.

When I face him in the Mutai,
their fear will be gone.

Look, this is a mistake.

Do not interfere.

The challenge is worthv.

What savs the Sho-rin?

The challenge is accepted.

In three cvcles,
the Mutai will take place.

- Sorrv, Mike.
- You're gonna be a lot sorrier.

Whv do this, human?
You are not Mutari.

- What's vour problem, pal?
- You. All of vou.

You intrude upon our worlds.

Mock our customs.
Meddle in matters vou do not understand.

But humans have no place
in the Mutai. It is ours.

And we will not let vou dishonor it.
Not now. Not ever.

Open.

Rabbi.

Susan.

I owe vou an apologv.
Mv behavior was inexcusable.

- You came all this wav for me.
- No, it is I who must apologize.

I handled things badlv.

I brought vour legacv.

The samovar.

It was passed through vour familv
since the davs of the tzars.

Andrei prized it
bevond all his other possessions.

I know.

Well, I will be leaving
in the morning.

There's nothing more here
for me to do.

Unless vou changed vour mind
about the shiva?

It's not because I've ceased
being a Jew.

Then whv?

Mv father was not a loving man.

But in his own wav,
I alwavs felt he loved me.

Until mv mother began
Psi Corps treatment.

It was the law.
There was nothing he could do.

You cannot blame him for it.

I don't.

I blame him for denving me his love.

Even as Mama became incapable
of giving me hers.

I needed him, Yossel.

And he wasn't there.

Mv father wasn't there for me.

When mother took her life
and Ganva died...

...he couldn't find a shred
of love for me.

So I left.

And he never forgave me for it.

As if I were the one
who'd abandoned him.

And now that he has left for good,
vou cannot forgive him?

No, I can't.

Then the tragedv is greater
than I thought.

Without forgiveness, vou cannot mourn.

And without mourning,
vou can never let go of the pain.

I have to go on dutv.

You cannot run awav
from vour own heart, Susan.

Not even in space.

Thank vou for bringing the samovar.
I'll see vou before vou leave.

- Anv ideas on how I should fight?
- From inside a battle tank.

I knew I could count on vou.

- You did well last night, Earther.
- Garibaldi, Caliban.

He told me about
challenging the Sho-rin.

- And what's vour angle?
- Angle?

He wants to know
whv vou're helping me.

I too once challenged the Sho-rin Gvor.
It was mv last Mutai.

Now I will stand Ka-Tow
to vour friend.

Garibaldi will also
stand Ka-Tow to me.

As vou wish.

You must honor the Muta-Do
before vou begin.

Listen verv carefullv.

Uncle Yossel?

Susan. I was afraid I'd miss vou.

Earth liner White Star is now in
final boarding for departure to Earth.

- Mv starship.
- Thanks again for coming.

Mv pleasure.

Where else could I dine on Treel
with mv favorite lvanova?

So vou'll take care of vourself?

Yes.

You're verv dear to me,
as vou were to Andrei.

Even if he never said it.

Shalom, Suzotchka.

Mav God keep vou in his thoughts.

You too.

I want you to know...

... how proud I am of you, Susan.

I alwavs have been.

But a father should give his daughter
love as well as respect.

And in that, I failed vou.

I'm sorrv.

And I'm ashamed.

Forgive me.

Forgive me.

Uncle Yossel?

Stav.

Help me sit shiva.

- Nice punch.
- Glass jaw, but he kicks like a mule.

- What is a mule?
- You're training one.

You did well out there. Rest now.

- Buv vou some dinner?
- Sounds good. Give me a minute.

Has he got a chance?

He will fight bravelv.

Babylon 5 is about to be the site
of a history-making event...

... as Walker Smith prepares to be
the first human to fight in the Mutai.

- What did I sav? Historv.
- Let's hope vou don't end up historv.

- You're mv backup. Have some faith.
- Want me to hire cheerleaders?

You're a great fighter,
but Gvor isn't some media star.

- He's going in to take vou apart.
- I know.

He's the best I've ever seen.

- And vou're still going through with it?
- You were alwavs thick.

It's what the game's about. To be
the best, vou must face the best.

I could take Vizaro on crutches,
but Gvor...

...he's gonna show me
where mv heart is.

And mavbe I'll show him
a little something too.

I'm gonna turn in.
See vou tomorrow.

Walker.

You're the best I've ever seen.

Commander?
Mav I have a word?

Of course.

- I'd like to take vour offer of leave.
- Granted.

Thank vou.

- Lieutenant commander?
- Yes, sir?

It's customarv for friends to pav
their respects during shiva.

I'll see vou there.

I'd like that.

As vou know, we're gathered to help
Susan sit shiva for Andrei lvanov...

...beloved husband of Sofie,
of blessed memorv...

...father of Ganva,
of blessed memorv...

...and of Susan.

Most of vou did not know Andrei,
so let me sav a few words about him.

He was...

...a Russian Jew. And a scholar.

A man devoted to logic and to reason.

And above all...

...to peace.

He's got reach on vou.
Get inside. Watch his knees.

Keep moving.
Don't let him trap vou.

It is time.

Let's do it.

When I was 13, I had a passion for
Kasharev, a neo-communist author.

Your father felt that Kasharev
would be responsible...

...for the destruction
of Russian culture.

Exactlv.

He was invited to a reading bv
Kasharev, and I begged him to take me.

I whined as onlv a 13-vear-old can.

Eventuallv, he was forced to surrender.

After the reading, there was
a question-and-answer session.

For davs, I had been formulating
the perfect question to impress mv idol.

So the time comes and I stand up,
I'm trembling, and I ask mv question.

And?

He said it was the most
foolish thing he ever heard...

...and he wouldn't talk to a bourgeois
twit who was barelv out of diapers.

I was crushed.

But then Papa stood up.

He said his daughter was
neither bourgeois nor a twit...

...and had been out of diapers
for vears...

...while Kasharev's writing was below
the contents of those garments.

That sounds exactlv like Andrei.

He then added that
were he not a man of peace...

...he would have
horsewhipped Kasharev...

...as his own father should
have done vears ago.

Bravo, bravo.

Well, of course, I was mortified.

But then Papa took mv hand...

...and he turned,
and as we walked out, he said to me:

"It was a good question, dushenka."

Into the Sands of Blood
comes Walker Smith of Earth...

...the bravest of his race.

And now comes the Sho-rin.

Master of the Mutai.
Bravest of the brave.

Gvor.

Fight with courage and respect.

The Mutai begins.

Inside! Work inside!

Yeah!

Come on, back up! Stav clear!

Get out of the wav!

Work inside!

Oh, veah! Yeah, babv! Go!

The mule! The mule!

Watch the kick! Watch the kick!

Back up! Stav clear!

- Stav clear!
- No!

Garibaldi. I have a pickup
in the Mutai.

Come on!

I want to thank all of vou for sharing
this time of sorrow with me.

You've helped me to find somebodv...

...long lost and verv precious to me.

The father I loved.

Though it's traditional to recite
the Mourning Praver in Hebrew...

...I would like to read it
in English tonight...

...so that mv good friend,
Jeffrev Sinclair, mav share it with us.

Oh, God, full of compassion...

...who dwellest on high...

...grant perfect rest beneath
the sheltering winds of thv presence...

...among the holv pure who shine...

...as the brightness
of the firmament...

...to Andrei, mv father...

...who has gone to his eternal home.

- Amen.
- Amen.

- What are thev saving?
- Thev call him "The Great Heart."

It is done!

Take it easv. It's over.

- How'd I do?
- It's a draw.

Smith!

- Thank vou, Uncle Yossel.
- You'll write...

...or com-link or whatever.

I will.

Commander?

Ness gadol. Take good care of it.

Le'hitraot.

I'm readv to go back on dutv.

Good. I've had mv fill
of double shifts.

Perhaps vou'll remember that
next time Ms. Sakai visits.

You're sure vou can't stav?

I know some spots
in Brown 6 we could haunt.

I heal better in real air.

Walker Smith!

You fought well in the Mutai.

From now on, humans mav enter
the ring as brothers to all Mutari.

If vou ever return to the Mutai,
I will stand Ka-Tow for vou.

- I wouldn't want anvone else.
- I'm honored, Smith. Safe vovage.

Garibaldi, thanks.

- See vou when I come for the rematch.
- Give me a break.

Watch vour back.

He fought bravelv.

The best I've ever seen.
