Anything to declare?

I have nothing to declare,
my dear man, except my genius.

And I have nothing to declare
except Rebo's genius either.

Zooty, zoot, zoot, zoot.

Sounds like they're through
immigration already.

Sir, what do you know about
Brakiri religious customs?

Oh, uh, let's see,
um, not a thing.

All I know is that
they hate comets.

Even mentioning
of a comet to a Brakiri

is some kind of, like,
awful taboo. Death.

- It's the symbol of death.
- Why do you ask?

Well, they want me to sell them
a piece of Babylon 5

just for tonight
for, uh, religious reasons.

It reminds me
of my senior ex-wife.

- What is it?
- Candy.

Only for carbon-based life forms
who can metabolize sugar.

Otherwise,
it's decorative ornament.

How much?

You are
Centauri emperor-to-be.

In "Universe Today."

- Him?
- I am Londo Mollari.

Tell me, Noble Mollari

who would you meet of those
who have gone before us?

Of the dead?

I would meet,
um, the first emperor.

I have several bones
to pick with him.

- They are a gift.
- Oh, no.

- I insist.
- Oh.

May the comet
bring you wisdom this night.

Yeah.

They are in aid of what?

A Brakiri harvest festival?

Tonight is the Day Of The Dead.

Tonight the dead return.

And so it begins.

There is a hole in your mind.

What do you want?

No one here is exactly
what he appears.

Nothing's the same anymore.

Commander Sinclair
is being reassigned.

Why don't you eliminate
the entire Narn homeworld?

I see a great hand
reaching out of a star.

Who are you?

President Clark has signed
a decree today declaring..

These orders have forced us
to declare independence.

Weapons, supplies..

...get off their encounter suited butts and do something.

You're the one who was.

If you go to Z'ha'dum,
you will die.

Why are you here?

Do you have anything
worth living for?

I think of my beautiful city
in flames.

Giants in the playground.

Now get the hell
out of our galaxy.

We are here to place
President Clark under arrest.

Yes?

Lennier.

What a wonderful surprise.

Well, I thought
you were in deep space.

I'm between training cycles.

Well, look at you.
You look so good.

Anla'Shok training
must agree with you.

- How long will you be staying?
- Not long.

It is the Brakiri
Day Of The Dead.

- I could not miss it.
- I will confess.

I have never heard
of this festival.

Well, I read an account of it
when I was a young priest.

It has always haunted me.

It occurs one night
roughly every 200 years.

The Brakiri contemplate and
honor those who've gone beyond

but there have been some
very strange stories

told of this night.

I had a few days leave coming

and Babylon 5 is easier
to visit than Brakir

so I came to learn.

Y-your partner, he's well?

My husband.

Yes, he's, um,
he's very well.

Right now, he's,
um, he's hosting

a cocktail party for,
uh, Rebo and Zooty.

'Yeah. Later tonight,
we are having dinner with them.'

Rebo and Zooty are here?

Zoot zoot?

This is truly a day of wonders.

Humor is truly
a universal element.

Like hydrogen.

The two people who have honored
us with their visit today

have brought joy to so many.

Now they were born
under other names.

But they are known
across the universe

as Rebo and Zooty.

Zooty, zoot, zoot.

Now with all the trauma
that we have endured lately

it gives me enormous pleasure
to confer upon them..

...the freedom of Babylon 5.

Hm.

I have written a speech,
which I will recite in English

and which Zooty has translated
by himself..

With the machine.

...into his own
universal language.

Ladies and gentlemen,
Mr. President

alien races with ears,
alien races without ears

and Zooty's friend Bingo,
the invisible fish.

We..

We have..

Oh, this is a moment
you can tell

your children about, captain.

I'll get on to having
some right away.

What?

I said I have an appointment
with the Brakiri ambassador.

I'm on my way.

- Long life to you.
- And to you, ambassador.

Here. For you.
The skull is for eating.

The comet is a gift from
all the Brakiri on Babylon 5.

It is of great
religious significance.

You must not refuse it.

Well, it's very beautiful.
Thank you.

I must, of course,
report the gift.

I've, uh, I've taken
your request under advisement

in my capacity
as captain of Babylon 5--

And everything is okay.

We can purchase Babylon 5
for the Brakiri.

It must be ours by sunset.

Well, it's certainly
an unusual request.

We can normally only rent
space around here.

But we must buy it.

If we rent it,
it is not Brakiri.

It's yours, not ours.

We'll give it back.
It's yours again at sunrise.

I understand that, ambassador.

In this case,
I can understand

that an exception
might need to be made.

Just my own personal curiosity,
uh, it's the Day Of The Dead

but it takes place at night?

The Brakiri are night-dwelling.

I see. Well, everything
seems to be in order.

Captain! Ah, please
forgive this intrusion.

I came as soon as I realized
what was happening.

Uh, G'Kar, as you can see,
I'm rather busy, but I believe

you know Ambassador Kullenbrak,
he's here to--

I know.
That is why I came.

I strongly advise you
against this transaction.

It is dangerous
and foolish and unwise.

Religious toleration is foolish?

This is not a matter
of toleration.

You do not know
what you are doing.

The Declaration of Principles
of the Alliance.

You are familiar
with it, I trust?

I wrote it.

It states that religious belief
shall be sacrosanct.

Captain, I repeat, you do not
know what you are doing.

I believe the captain knows
exactly what she is doing

and I and all the Brakiri
on Babylon 5 appreciate it.

I'm sorry, G'Kar. Shall we?

Now you understand
that there is only one comet

in the Brakiri solar system

and it signals
the Day Of The Dead.

The comet represents death
to all Brakiri

and the line that we make here
shows us Brakiri territory.

That's completely
fascinating, ambassador.

Fascinating, exactly.

Now I am standing
on Brakiri homeworld

until planetary sunrise.

Now I am standing on Babylon 5.

Now I am on Brakir.
Now Babylon 5.

So my quarters are on
the Brakiri side of the corridor

with my bed in them
and a shower

and I...hear them call me.

Uh..

Come in, come in.

This is Delenn, my wife

and the head of the advisory
board for the Alliance.

Madam, we are Rebo and Zooty.

N'trol ampurk'assi lecococ ornell.

W-w-w-what did you say?

You see, uh, Minbari humor
is based not on physical danger

or embarrassment or rejection
like human humor

but rather on the failure
to obtain, uh

emotional or spiritual
enlightenment.

You see, a lecococmeans
both a small fish..

...and-and the pleasure
you get from meeting someone

for the first time.

Y-you've studied Minbari humor?

Yeah, Minbari humor, Narn humor,
most forms of humor.

Ah, what's for dinner?
Something smells great.

Uh, you know, I-I was, I was
really hoping to talk to Zooty

you know, without the machine.

Yeah, he, uh,
he never breaks character.

Not even, not even around me.

In-in ten years,
I've only heard him say one word

without the machine.

Oh. Oh. Wh-what's the word?

- Why.
- Oh, just curious.

No, no. That, that was
the word, why, uh..

In ten years, I haven't
figured it out myself.

- 'John?'
- Oh, coming. Yeah.

'And now more laughs
in the best of Rebo and Zooty.'

'We do what we always do, Rebo.'

'We'll drive off that bridge
when we succumb to it.'

'Zooty, you're my hero.'

'Zooty zoot.'

'We return to our Rebo
and Zooty movie marathon'

'with "Sons of the New Desert."'

'Rebo, is that your ass
or mine?'

Oh.

My quarters are within
the Brakiri territory.

Therefore I would like
to sleep here tonight.

I-I will not be in the way.

Well, uh, sure.

Looks like a quiet night.

Looks can be deceptive.

Do not wake me.

'But, Rebo,
the man in the store'

'said it was a special
kind of carrot'

'and that was why it whistled.'

'Ah, Zooty, for you, 50,000
years of human civilization'

'was just something
that happened'

'to other people, wasn't it?'

Lochley here.
What's happening?

So..

...when you were emperor,
it meant something.

Subduer of the Xon
and the Shoggren.

Now, pfft.

Anyone can be emperor.

I can be emperor.
Vir can be emperor.

And Vir can be emperor

a small Earth cat
can be emperor.

Come on. Talk to me.

It is the Day Of The Dead.

Hm?

No? Nothing to say?

Of course not.
The dead stay dead.

Hello, Londo.

I came back.

Adira? Adira Tyree?

My Adira?

But you are dead.

I saw your body.

- You were poisoned.
- Shh.

It is you.

I killed the man
that killed you.

Do you know that?

But it didn't bring you back.

I'm to be emperor.

I am the savior of our people.

But..

I..

I think that I would
give it all away..

...to have you back.

To have you beside me.

Oh, Londo.

My darling.

My poor, wonderful darling.

- Oh, I missed you so.
- Mm.

Alright, whoever's in there,
come out with your hands up.

'Ooh, it'd be easier if you
came in with me, Michael.'

'You could soap my back.'

'It feels so good.'

'You have no idea how much
I missed hot water.'

'You got a robe, cutie?'

Dodger?

It can't be.

'Look at you.'

Yougot old.

Tell you, I turn my back
on you for five minutes

and you got old, hm?

I thought you'd be
pleased to see me.

But I, I thought you were dead.

Ah.

You know,
the reports of my death

they weren't even exaggerated
a little bit.

Yeah, I'm, I'm dead.

But, you know, I missed you

and how often do dead people
get second chances?

What are you,
some kind of robot or a clone?

This has got to be a Psi sting.

Bester, Bester, another one of
his dirty little tricks, right?

Michael, it's no one's
dirty little trick.

It's, it's just me.

Happy Day Of The Dead.

Sheridan, then.

'Sorry, that location
is out of range.'

Lizzie? Is that you?

Where is this place?

Zoe?

Oh, my God.

Zoe.

Zoe, do you know
how you got here?

How long has it been?

Twenty years.

I came back to the apartment
and I found you.

You were on the floor
in the bathroom..

...and you had cockroaches
all over you.

You choked on your..

You'd been, um..

Oh, Zoe.

Sorry.

You said the stuff
would kill me, huh?

Wanna say I told you so?
You can if you want.

So then what happened?

Uh, after you died,
I, uh, I got scared.

I called my mom back home

and ten hours later,
my dad turned up

with half a dozen off-duty
marines from his platoon

to, uh, take me back.

You know what?

Even after everything he'd done,
I was glad to see him.

Then I, uh, I enlisted
in Earthforce Cadet Corps.

And now I run a space station

and I worry
about the daily problems

of a quarter million life forms.

- We're in space?
- Yeah.

Cool.

Um, Zoe.

There was something
I've always wondered

ever since you were

you know..

Did you do it on purpose
or was it an accident?

I don't remember.

Hey, have you got
any stuff around here?

- We could have a little party.
- I stopped when you died.

You don't party?

Jeez, Lizzie,
what'd you grow up to be?

We had such fun, didn't we?

Didn't we have such fun?

No, we were..

We were cold and sick
and we were hungry all the time.

We did things to survive.

I've done my best to forget.

We lived in that
burned-out hotel.

I was scared all the time
my father was gonna find me.

No, no.

It was bad.

Yeah, but..

...we still had fun.

Are you a ghost?

I don't think so.

I don't believe in ghosts.

Anyway, I, I need to use
the rest room.

Well, maybe you were transported
here in time before you died.

No.

I died.

I do remember that
a little bit.

It was bad, Lizzie.

Thank you.

Yes?

'I need to talk to you
privately, Mr. President.'

Uh, alright.
Uh, I won't be long.

Please, enjoy the kreebish.

Go ahead, lieutenant.

There seems to be
a slight problem, sir.

It's kind of hard to explain.

We seem to be missing
a piece of the station.

'We can't reach it.
We can't communicate with it.'

'That piece is almost
a square mile across.'

You can't just lose
something that big.

'I agree,
but it's still missing.'

Have you spoken
to Captain Lochley about this?

Captain Lochley's quarters
are within the zone, sir.

- You know something, Dodger?
- Hm?

I never really believed in
anything beyond death until now.

Me neither. Still don't.

- You're kidding.
- No.

I don't believe in ghosts

or reincarnation
or any of that stuff.

I figure you got one shot
at the golden ring

and when you're done,
pfft, blammo, you're done.

But you're, I mean..

Oh, maybe it's a Psi phenomena

or a time thing or technomancy.

Look, I'm a marine.

I trust what I can feel
or shoot or--

Or, yeah.

Look, weren't you meant
to bring back, you know

arcane knowledge
from beyond the veil?

No, all the arcane knowledge
I got

I pretty much started out with.

- Such as?
- Such as, um..

Alright, capers, those little
things they put on pizzas

pickled nasturtium buds

and, um,
any Emily Dickinson poem

can be sung to the tune
of"The Yellow Rose Of Texas."

Come on. I won't bite you.

'Good evening, Ranger Lennier.'

- I know you.
- I should hope so.

When I was alive,
I was known as Mr. Morden.

It's always nice
to be recognized.

You worked for the Shadows.

I did a lot of things, yes.

Looking back on it though,
I think I just tried

to make people happy.

Anyway, it's all
just history now

and I've paid
for all my crimes, eh?

Why did you come back here?

I'm dead.

It's my job.

Why'd you come back here?

I came for wisdom.

You don't come to the dead
for wisdom, Lennier.

My head was cut from my body.

Even now, it rots on a pole
outside the Imperial Palace.

Birds have taken the hair
for their nests.

Maggots ate my flesh
and you want wisdom?

Yes, I do.

Wisdom.

Let's see, uh..

Delenn does not love you
as you love her

and she never will.

I know that.

No, you don't,
not in your heart.

That's the problem, you see?

No one should ever
wanna talk to the dead.

Go away.

Oops, sorry,
it doesn't work like that.

You raised a ghost
and now you have to listen

to what he tells you.

Really?

He said he didn't wanna sleep
in the Brakiri territory, sir.

Well, I don't blame him.

You know, Lochley said something
about selling to the Brakiri

a piece of Babylon 5
right before this happened.

There has to be a connection.

Do you know how long
she sold them that area for?

- No, sir.
- Hmm. Alright, check her log.

She'll have noted
all the details.

And get me
the Brakiri homeworld.

Someone there must be able
to explain this.

Yes, sir.

Come on. You won't
get there by walking.

The other side of that corridor

is over 200 million
light years away.

And the air is spread a little
thinly in the middle.

Think there's any coffee
in this place?

Why did you help me?

I know what kind
of a man you were.

Give a dog a bad name
and you can hang him with it.

You shouldn't listen to
everything Sheridan tells you.

Actually, I'm surprised
he's not here tonight

since he died at Z'ha'dum.

Is there any coffee here or not?

Suit yourself.

So..

...do you like being
a ranger, Lennier?

Would you like it any better
if I were to tell you

that you will betray
the Anla'Shok?

You are lying.

- I wish I were.
- No?

Sheridan did not die
at Z'ha'dum.

If you do not know the present,
how can you claim

to know the future?

I'm talking about the future.

So what if I'm not
up on recent history?

I'm prophetic, not infallible.

I think you are neither,
but at least you have shown me

there is truly life
beyond death.

Not necessarily, but you'll find
that out soon enough.

I am Anla'Shok

and shall remain so
until I pass beyond.

I could no more
betray the Anla'Shok

than my fingers
could betray my hand.

- Our talk is done.
- Your loss.

Got any music around here?

Yeah, there are some crystals
right there

but not too loud, huh?

I'm thinking here.

Lochley to C and C.

'Sorry, that location
is out of range.'

It's acting as if
the rest of Babylon 5

were a million light years away.

- That's not possible.
- I don't see why.

Where we are is part
of the Brakiri home planet.

That must be a long way
from Babylon 5.

Oh, that's crazy.

Wait, I wonder..

On in link mode.

Locate all backup and emergency
systems currently active.

Okay.

Shut down units D3 through X11

and reroute all power
and communications

through Epsilon Grid.

'Protected routine.'

'Passcode requested.'

Captain Elizabeth Lochley.

Passcode, two words.

Zoe's dead.

Bingo.

So this is the same Lise
you told me about

last time I was here?

Yeah.

She must be quite a woman.

Uh-huh, she is.

Do you ever tell her about us?

There was never anus
to tell her about.

- I'm jealous.
- Hm.

She's so lucky.

She's alive and she's got you,
even though you did get old.

She gets to do this.

I hope I'm not interrupting
anything, Mr. Garibaldi.

Uh, no, no. Uh, this is just,
uh, just an old friend.

Dodger, this is
Captain Lochley.

This is PFC, the late PFC.

Durman, Elizabeth, 56927.

- Killed in action, sir.
- Yeah, thank you.

Mr. Garibaldi, I need
to be put through to C and C.

You'll need to route
the call via Proxima

using a tachyon relay.

You want me to hack from Babcom
into Stellarcom

and back from my quarters?

Or to recommend someone else
more competent

than you are currently
within Brakiri bounds.

- You must be kidding.
- You have one half-hour.

Now I'm going to patch
through a general broadcast

explaining that we have
the situation well in hand

and that there is nothing
to worry about.

Captain Lochley.

- Londo.
- Hm?

Again?

You make me feel so young
once more, Adira.

And you make me feel alive.

This is Captain Lochley.

All of you within the marked
Brakiri boundaries

'are experiencing certain
extraordinary phenomena.'

What is she talking about?

Idiot woman. Destroying my mood.

Off. Off!

But she was right.

Normality will return soon

and when this night is done..

...so am I.

And you..

...you will go on
to become Emperor Mollari.

I don't want to become emperor.

I want to stay here with you.

Londo, I'm a dream.

In the morning, I'll be gone.

And you will rule
40 billion Centauri..

...but not one of them
will ever know you

the way I know you.

Now if this works,
I'll be able to convince

the local information stream

that it's actually
originating on Minbar..

...streaming into Proxima..

...and from there..

Come on, override.

You know, some guys
would be flattered

if a not entirely uncute dame
returned from the dead

to spend a night of lust
and passion with them.

Yeah.

And they'd find other ways
to prove their masculinity

than hacking into
the interstellar phone system.

Yes.

Captain Lochley,
your comm channels are open.

Took me 17 minutes.
Goodnight.

I mean, it's some guys' fantasy.

A love-hungry redhead
who'll disappear in the morning

never to be seen again.

I'm sorry, Dodger.
What were you saying?

It's a good thing I'm only here
another hour or so, cupcake.

Two weeks of this,
I'd kill you.

Hmph.

You know, we're so impressed

with how you're dealing
with this whole thing.

I mean, this is a real
emergency, and, uh

you're so calm and collected.

We, we both admire
you both very much

and that's why we've decided--

We want to give up
show business.

Yeah, uh, we wanna
give it all up

and, uh, and do
something worthwhile.

Worthwhile?

That's right,
like, you know, what you do.

I'm sorry for running
out on you.

Well, I have done everything
I can down there.

Uh, John, Rebo and Zooty
are telling me

they plan to give up comedy
for politics.

You know, making people
laugh is, is okay.

I mean, I, I enjoy
getting a laugh

but, uh, I don't know.

We wanna do something
more important.

But you two have a real gift.

I mean, when things were bad
under President Clark..

...you two said things
on your show

that no one else
would dare to say.

But no one takes
comedians seriously.

- Isn't that a contradiction?
- No.

We say serious things
in a funny way

but when the joke comes,
people stop listening.

Uh, the real comedy all
happens in the senate.

They do, they do one idiotic
thing after another

but people listen
because they say it seriously.

I don't know whether
we're leaving comedy

to go into clown school,
but all I do know

is that, uh,
comedians don't matter.

Well, if you don't matter,
nothing matters.

I mean, the only reason
politics exist

is to ensure that people
have the freedom to laugh.

And to love.

Yes?

'Sir, there's a call'

'coming in for you
on external relay.'

- 'It's Captain Lochley.'
- Patch her through.

- Captain Lochley.
- Yes, Mr. President.

Captain.

- Where are you calling from?
- My quarters, sir.

Mr. Garibaldi patched
into Stellarcom.

Right now, I'm talking to you
from two levels up

and 27 light years away.

Don't ask.
I don't understand it either.

- Are you alright?
- Yes, sir.

Thank you for asking.

I'm pretty sure this situation
will sort itself out

at planetary sunrise when the
area ceases to be Brakiri space.

Well, that's what
the authorities

on the Brakiri homeworld
assured me.

Sir, you're breaking up.

'Uh, well, um,
later on this morning'

you'll have to tell me
all about it.

0800 hours in my office.

Goodnight, captain.

Well, time's nearly up.

When you remember me, Lennier

think of me as a brief
electromagnetic anamoly

who told you some true things
for your own good.

No, it-it is true.
Listen, um..

♪ My candle burns at both ends ♪

♪ It will not last the night ♪

♪ But oh my friends
and oh my foes ♪

♪ It gives a lovely light ♪

Okay, alright,
alright, alright.

I will try one, okay?

♪ Because I would not
wait for death ♪

♪ He kindly stopped for me ♪

Dodger.

Now I was raised a good
Catholic boy, believe it or not.

Maybe..

Maybe one day
we'll meet up in heaven.

Parting is all
we know of heaven

and all we need of hell.

And that's the message
I was given.

So who is this Sheridan guy?

It doesn't matter.

So did you get married?

Married.

Um, actually,
to that Sheridan guy.

Didn't work.

Did you have any kids?

No kids.

I wanted to have kids,
a lot of kids.

Lizzie, I do remember my death.

I didn't wanna hurt you, but..

Yeah, I did do it on purpose.

I just couldn't go on.

Don't hate me.

I could never hate you.

'Captain, what do you think
happened last night?'

'Did you have any of these
ghostly encounters?'

Yes, sir.

Would you like to tell me
about it?

With all due respect,
sir, it was..

...intensely personal.

Well, that is pretty much
what everyone tells me.

Okay, captain, let me
get this straight.

You sold Babylon 5
to an alien race for the night

who somehow transported
a square mile

of this station
to their homeworld

while apparently filling it
with people

temporarily returned
from the dead?

Yes, sir.

Well, do you have an explanation
as to why you did this?

Yes, sir, I thought
it was a metaphor, sir.

I-I'll try to be more
literal-minded from now on, sir.

Mm.

A-any idea yet
what actually happened?

Well, the, uh,
the high IQ boys back home

think it might have been a
device smuggled onto the station

that somehow activates the parts
of the brain

responsible for memory.

And Zach is checking
the air ducts

to see if it was a gas used
to create a similar effect.

And Mr. Garibaldi wants
to blame the telepaths.

Of course, these days
he's looking for grounds

to blame them for everything
from sunspots to hair loss.

So you have no idea
what caused it.

- No, sir.
- It's a mystery.

Yes, sir.

But frankly, sir,
as long as no one got hurt

and the effect seems
to have been temporary

I, I don't have
a problem with that.

I think we need a little mystery
once in a while.

Oh, and, uh,
speaking of mysteries

I have a message for you.
It's from someone named Kosh.

What's the message?

"When the long night comes

return to the end
of the beginning."

Oh, uh, thank you, captain.
That-that'll be all.

Captain Lochley.

Go ahead, say it, G'Kar,
I told you so.

You warned me, I didn't listen.

You were right.

No, y-you were right
and I was wrong.

The people who were within
the Brakiri bounds last night

they seem deeper,
more at peace.

I wonder what I would have seen

if I had slept
in my own quarters last night.

Well, I hadn't thought that--

There's no profit
in might-have-beens.

So we learn
from our mistakes.

You're so funny.

From now on,
I will always watch you.

Zoot, zoot.

Very funny.

I thought perhaps you could
perform at my inauguration.

However, to make
a Centauri laugh

I have to give you
a piece of advice.

Sometimeswe learn.

Let me buy you
breakfast, captain.

What did he say?

Because it tells me to.
