All language subtitles for Babylon 5 4x15.No.Surrender.No.Retreat

(John)
Captain's personal log,
September 2, 2261.

Enough is enough.

[dramatic music]

Londo, what do they want?

- What's going on?
- I don't know.

[indistinct chatter]

They're waiting.

I'm sorry to call you
together at this early hour

but we don't
have a lot of time.

[sighs]
Commander.

For the last month or so,
ships from Babylon 5

have been patrolling the borders
of your governments.

Since we've been
protecting you

from raiders
and border skirmishes

the number of incidents
has decreased 70 percent.

May we assume that you are
all happy with this arrangement?

Good. Because now
there is a price tag.

By now, most of you have heard
of the attacks

against civilian targets
by ships from Earth.

In the latest attack
authorized by President Clark

ten thousand civilians were
killed as an example to others.

We can no longer
tolerate this behavior.

Alpha squadron,
status report.

(male #1 on radio)
'Alpha squadron
ready for launch.'

Launch!

(John)
'Most of your governments have'

'mutual defense treaties
with Earth.'

As of right now in exchange

for our continued patrol
along your borders

I'm declaring those treaties
null and void.

[indistinct chattering]

I have no problem with this.

You have been here for us
from the beginning.

During their war
with the Minbari

'I supervised
arms sales to Earth.'

'They promised...to help us
when we needed them.'

But where was Earth when our
borders were being attacked?

Where was Earth
when the Shadows

were rampaging
across our territories?

They did nothing!

We owe them
nothing in return.

Thank you, G'Kar.

It's not only our people
who are at risk here.

Clark's propaganda machine

is feeding the anti-alien
hysteria back home.

In time all of you will be hurt
if they're not stopped.

Well, we intend to stop them.

Delta squadron, launch!

We ask that each of you
contribute at least

one destroyer-class ship
to the defense of Babylon 5.

Your people here will
need to be protected

in case Clark
tries to retaliate.

Beyond that,
don't get involved.

Anyone gets in between
us and them

won't live long enough
to regret it.

'You will not respond to any
request for military assistance'

from President Clark
or the Earth alliance

except in the form
of humanitarian aid.

From now on,
Earth stands alone.

'We're taking back Proxima 3'

'we're taking back Mars.'

Then..

...we're gonna
take back our home..

...or die trying.

(Lennier)
It was the year of fire.

(Zack)
The year of destruction.

(G'Kar)
The year we took back
what was ours.

(Lyta)
It was the year of rebirth.

(Vir)
The year of great sadness.

(Marcus)
The year of pain.

(Delenn)
And the year of joy.

(Londo)
It was a new age.

(Franklin)
It was the end of history.

(Susan)
It was the year
everything changed.

(Michael)
The year is 2261.

(Sheridan)
The place, "Babylon 5."

[theme music]

[music continues]

[dramatic music]

- Out of the way! Move!
- Excuse me.

- Get back. Hey!
- Everyone, step back!

- What's your hurry?
- Step back. Step back.

Watch it!

- Whoa.
- Hey.

Where the hell is he?

He said he's on his way.

- I've got it!
- 'Let's see.'

It would have got here faster

if I could have just
sent it out.

We couldn't risk
anyone intercepting it.

- Is it current?
- As current as we can make it.

Here.

Clark's stationed half a dozen
omega-class destroyers

between Proxima 3
and the local jump gate.

'There is also a series
of planetary scanners'

that can detect any ship
trying to leave.

It's good positioning.

Anybody trying to take off
gets shot down

before escaping the blockade

and no one comes through
the gate without being seen.

The colony is very
close to surrendering.

They're running out
of food, water, supplies.

'They're down
to almost nothing.'

That's why they
keep trying to escape.

Better to be shot down
than to starve to death.

Do you have an I.D.
on those ships?

Yes.

The Heracles under
captain Trevor Hall

the Juno under
captain James Mandala

the Pollux, Captain
Elizabeth Morgenstern

'the Nemesis,
Captain Yoshi Kawagawa'

'the Vesta, Captain
Edward MacDougan'

and the Furies,
Captain Stephanie Eckland.

Which one of them destroyed
the civilian transports?

The Heracles and the Pollux.

Do you know either
of the captains involved?

No. So they're new.

Which probably means
they're loyal to Clark.

Have any of them
deliberately avoided

shooting at civilian targets?

(Marcus)
I don't know. It'll take
a little while to find out.

Well, get moving.

We need to know how many
destroyers are committed

to the blockade
and how many are holding back.

(John)
Stephen, how are you
doing with the telepaths

we rescued
from the Shadows?

Well, we wake them
for brief periods

but they're still
under the influence

of the mind control devices.

Haven't found a way to remove
them without causing damage.

I need them mobile, as many as
you can and as fast as you can.

Not for this operation,
but soon.

I'll do my best.

They've got the place
buttoned up tight.

We're gonna have
a hell of a time

fighting our way in there.

Mm-hmm. We'll hit them in waves.

'Try to isolate the ships
we need to destroy'

'from the ones who won't fight
unless they have to.'

Then we'll give them a chance
to surrender or join up.

And if they don't?

We take them out.

Hey, I don't like the idea
any more than you do.

But either we commit ourselves
to this completely

or we don't do it.

Once we pull the first trigger,
we can't hesitate

to pull the next one,
because they sure won't.

Now, once we're in,
we're in.

No surrender..

...and no retreat.

[dramatic music]

[doorbell beeps]

Oh. Oh!
I didn't do it!

I didn't do it!

[doorbell beeps]

Oh! Thank the great maker.
It was just a dream.

Oh!

[instrumental music]

Open.

Hello, Vir.

Mr. Garibaldi.

Is, uh, Londo around?

I've got some business
in Centauri space

so I figured he could help me
cut through the red tape.

He's not here.

He had to go set up
a meeting with G'K..

He, uh, had a meeting.

Oh, I see.

Well, it looks, uh, like
you had a late night.

No, not actually, they just,
um, got us up very early

to brief us
on their new campaign.

What new campaign?

To take back Earth
and your outer colonies.

I-I'm sorry.

I-I thought you knew.

No. No.

Well, now that you do

I-I imagine you'll
wanna sign on again.

Not with Sheridan.

Doesn't your homeworld
matter to you?

Of course, it matters.

But I don't like
the way he's doing this.

Well, that's the way it is.

I don't always like
the way Londo does things

and, well, me and
most civilized worlds

but, you know,
sometimes he's right.

So I force myself to give him
the benefit of the doubt.

I can't do that anymore.

So you're not gonna
fight for your world?

Of course, I'm gonna fight.
I'm gonna fight in my own way.

Just tell Londo I came by

and I'll check in
with him later.

[music continues]

[whooshing]

How much longer
do you want them to continue

running the drills, commander?

Another hour, then bring
half of them in for refueling.

After that, we'll
alternate squadrons.

I don't want anyone outside with
less than half a tank of fuel.

We'll rotate pilots
in for rest periods

but other than that, I want
every ship we have out there.

Will they be going
on the missions?

Some, yes.
The rest we'll keep for fly-by.

I don't intend
to get caught flat-footed

in case Clark comes after us.

Ivanova to all
fighter squadrons.

'Adjust friend-or-foe systems'

'to new frequencies
every 24 hours.'

'You'll check in with
Lieutenant Corwin or myself'

'for the code of the day.'

'Once we are in combat
situations, you will not accept'

'any order that does not use
the proper codes'

'even if it seems to come from
Captain Sheridan or myself.'

Earthforce has our
voice records on file

and could simulate false
or misleading orders.

C and C out.

So from now on I guess
the operational phrase

is "Trust no one?"

No. Trust Ivanova,
trust yourself.

Anybody else, shoot 'em.

[dramatic music]

White Star squadrons
are standing by, ready to go.

As per your request,
White Stars 7, 12 and 18

are in hyperspace
en route to Earth space.

They should be arriving
in about 10 to 12 hours.

Have them jump into normal space
as soon as they arrive.

Two by Mars, another as
close to Earth as possible

without being shot down.

But they'll set off
the early warning systems

and Clark will scramble
everything he's got.

I want them to think we're
flying reconnaissance flights

preparing for a strike
to liberate Mars or Earth.

That should be enough
to make them panic.

Call in all the ships
that he can--

- While we hit Proxima 3?
- 'Exactly.'

By the time they
get turned around

we'll have secured Proxima.

Then all we have to do
is hold on to it

while we move on
to the next target.

Have you heard
from Marcus yet?

He should be almost
to Proxima by now.

He's standing by in hyperspace

with the first
White Star squadron.

The rest of them will be
arriving in groups

of twos and threes,
staying just far enough

off the beacon
to avoid detection.

Good. Good. That should give us
a jump on those destroyers.

'I just hope
some of them join us.'

Otherwise, this is gonna get
really ugly.

(female #1 on radio)
Scout 17 to Heracles,
beginning patrol.

(male #1)
'Roger that. Take your time.
We're not going anywhere.'

(female #1)
'Affirmative.'

(male #1)
White Star 14 to White Star
Prime, we're in position.

Good. Maintain radio silence
until notified.

I'm on with the resistance.

We don't want too many signals
attracting attention.

(male #1)
'Confirmed.'

- You still there?
- 'Still here.'

'Don't know how much
longer we can hold out.'

We're moving
as fast as we can.

Do you have any information
about which destroyers

have avoided firing
at civilian targets?

(male #2)
'Yeah. Uploading now.'

Good.

We'll contact you again
in five hours

on the alternate frequency.
Stand by to--

[explosions]

What's that?

Are you alright?

(male #2)
'Laser cannons.'

'They sent in more ground forces
a few days ago.'

'We're gonna have to tear down
the transmitter'

'fall back to our
secondary base.'

'Whatever you people are gonna
do, you'd better do it soon.'

[doorbell beeps]

[beeping continues]

Enter.

Hello, G'Kar.

I don't believe I have ever been
in your quarters before.

Unless you count a cell
on Centauri Prime.

I apologize
for the lack of chains.

The cleaning service
must have removed them.

It has much the same
feeling as your world..

...dry

red..

...and depressing.

I..

Isn't it amazing how quickly
we fall into familiar patterns

as soon as we come
into one another's orbit?

'Like comets that flare
when they get too near the sun.'

I did not come here
to spar with you, G'Kar.

I came..

...to talk to you.

How is the eye?

It sees.

Good.

Good.

[sighs]
These last few years

have been very difficult
for both of us, G'Kar.

[scoffs]

Harder on you, perhaps.

But as the humans say

it has not exactly been
a picnic for me either.

I have no illusions
that you did what you did..

...endured what you endured

for the good of my people.

You sacrificed your dignity

your pride..

...your eye to help free Narn.

But still, in the process

'you did help my own world'

and I never
thanked you for that.

I have no interest
in your thanks.

I did not think
that you would

but it is there anyway.

[sighs]

As I said..

...a hard year.

Yes..

...a hard year.

What you said before

about the chains..

...that was unkind, G'Kar.

'When I saw you
in that cell'

'beaten, chained..'

'As I said, we have
never been friends'

'we will never be friends.'

'There is too much blood
between us, too much history.'

'But I did feel for you'

'as much as I did not want to.'

In the beginning, it was..

...little more than the sympathy

one might feel
for any trapped animal.

But in time..

...I came to respect you.

Your respect matters to me

even less than your thanks.

You are not going to give me
even an inch, are you?

I promised to free Narn
if you cooperated.

I could have easily
changed my mind

but I kept my promise.

Surely that entitles me
to something.

Was there something else
you wanted to say?

You may not
believe this, G'Kar

but all I ever wanted

is what is right
for my world.

I am a patriot!

As you are.

I have made some..

...very poor choices

'in the last two years.'

'Because I did not think'

those choices almost
destroyed my world

and yours!

That is a humbling
realization, G'Kar.

If, with a single wrong word

I can become the enemy

do I any longer
really understand

who the enemy is?

'I have spoken
with my government.'

We will not remain neutral

in the matter of Sheridan's war
with Earth.

I have convinced them to throw

our official support
to Sheridan.

If the Narn

were to do the same

in a joint statement

it might help.

If two forces recently
at war with one another

can agree on this..

...perhaps it might help
to convince the others.

Why?

Because, while I do not know

who the enemy is any longer

I do know
who my friends are.

And that I have not done
as well by them as I should.

I hope to change that.

I hope to do better.

Before war broke out
between our governments

you bought me a drink.

I wish to return the favor.

For the first time
in a hundred years

we have something
in common beyond hatred.

I find that
most extraordinary.

And so, a drink.

To the humans..

...and to the bridge
they created between us..

...in the hope
for a better future

for both our worlds.

I see.

Captain on deck!

As you were.

We've received the information
we've been waiting for

and can proceed
with the attack

against the forces
holding Proxima 3.

We'll hit them in three waves

pull their forces apart

and surround them
with superior firepower.

The details have been
linked to your ships.

You will not discuss that
information amongst yourselves

or with anyone else

until the mission
is complete.

We'll be fighting
in close quarters

so keep an eye out
for each other.

If the battle deteriorates
into a fur ball

we could sustain losses
from friendly fire.

The Heracles and the Pollux

have fired on civilian targets.

So we consider them
a hostile vessel.

The Nemesis and the Vesta
have apparently gone

to great lengths
to avoid firing on civilians.

The others..

...we don't know.

We'll give them a chance
to surrender or stand down

but we won't risk
our forces to do it.

So if you're fired upon

or target vessel
locks onto your ship

you have full authority
to return fire and engage.

Of all the missions
we've flown..

...this will be
the most difficult.

I mean, it's one thing
to defend ourselves

as we did last year.

But to initiate combat
against our own forces..

...that's a hard one.

I can only tell you
that we take this action

with the utmost reluctance.

'If there were any other way'

we'd take it.

There isn't one.

Now, we'll do what we can
to minimize casualties

on the other side

but the job of a soldier

is to destroy the enemy
and come home alive.

'To that end..'

...do what you have to do.

[instrumental music ]

(David)
'They're clear to leave.'

(Susan)
'I know.'

(Corwin)
'I was noticing the new paint
job on the White Star 2.'

'Won't they..'

'I mean, won't they know
it's him?'

(Susan)
'I think that's the general
idea, lieutenant.'

Oh, Marcus, good.

Open up a channel
to the rest of the ships.

Enzi ko.

Tekash.

Opening channel.

You're on.

Assault base to Unit 1,
take position.

Stand by to initiate jump.

Jump!

[dramatic music]

[alarm buzzes]

What the hell's going on?

Jump point forming
on the other side of the planet.

Picking up three silhouettes.

Are they advancing
on our position?

(female #2)
'Negative, taking up
geostationary orbit'

'on the other side
of the planet.'

Probably hoping we haven't
noticed them yet.

Good.

Send the Pollux and the Nemesis
to investigate.

Yes, sir.

[spaceship rumbles]

Nemesis and Pollux
moving to intercept.

Not the Heracles?

No.
Curious that.

You think they'd send
the ones we know

are liable to shoot.

The hostiles might
be splitting up

so they can be
with both groups

to keep them in line.

Unless they're all hostile

and some are just more
hostile than others.

Well, thank you for that
ray of sunshine, Marcus.

Next time I feel
the need to be depressed

I'll remember
to give you a call.

Second unit, take position.
Stand by to jump.

[intense music]

Nemesis and Pollux
on final approach to Proxima.

Now it gets interesting.

All units, remember, do not fire
unless fired upon first.

They may not fight for Clark,
but they will defend themselves.

So don't back them
into a corner.

Second unit...launch.

We've got multiple warships
on approach vector.

Silhouette unknown.

Those are Sheridan's forces.

I've heard about them,
but never seen them before.

Captain Sheridan?
What's he doing here?

Making a terminal error.

This is fleet command.

We've got hostiles
on attack vector.

Vesta and Juno, launch fighters
and assume point.

[dramatic music]

A second enemy wing
is advancing on our position.

Nemesis and Pollux
are aware of our situation

and asking for instructions.

Do we issue the recall order?

Negative.

If they turn around, they'll
expose their flank to the enemy

and we'll be caught
between two groups of hostiles.

Ten thousand kilometers
to optimum firing range.

Pulse cannons standing by,
ready to fire.

Defense grid armed,
ready to fire.

[signal beeps]

- Signal coming in.
- Let me hear it.

(John)
'Repeat.
This is Captain John Sheridan'

'to Earth destroyer group.'

Track the signal.
Find out which ship he's in.

Getting signal lock,
sir, it's..

Sir, it's coming
from behind us.

(John)
'You are ordered to stand down'

'or leave the Proxima
system at once.'

'You're in violation
of the Proxima treaty'

'and your attacks on civilian
transports are illegal'

'under the rules of engagement
and the articles of war.'

You can leave peacefully,
if that is your choice.

But we are prepared to use
deadly force, if necessary.

Son of a..

Eight thousand kilometers
to optimum firing range.

Enemy ships closing at the rear.

'Do we turn and engage
or continue?'

Continue toward primary target.

Fleet command
to Vesta and Furies.

Come about
and engage rear targets.

(Edward)
'This is captain
Edward MacDougan'

'of the Vesta
to hostile vessels.'

Mac? What the hell
are you doing?

Maintain radio silence.

Mackie..

Long time, no see.

(Edward)
'John, get your tail out
of here. This isn't gonna work.'

Like it or not, Proxima 3
is under Earth jurisdiction.

We can't allow them to secede,
whoever's in office.

They broke away
after Clark started bombing

civilian targets.

What's the rule about following
an illegal order?

You don't.
We're not involved.

We haven't attacked anyone.

(John)
But you're about to.

Any action you take
in support of an illegal order

makes you an accomplice
of that order.

Oh, come on, Mackie.

President Clark
is-is out of control.

He's got you out here
on an illegal mission.

'Back at the academy'

'you used to pose
moral conflicts for us'

'as part of our training.'

'You said that soldiers
aren't machines.'

'They have to think,
they have to decide'

'if-if an order
is moral or not.'

Well, what does your
conscience tell you?

We have reached
optimum firing range.

That damned MacDougan!

I told the others he didn't
have what it takes.

Fine. We'll force the issue.

Open fire.

[pulse cannons firing]

[explosion]

[grunts]

Heracles has opened fire.

'Other ships moving to support.'

'Fighters launching.'

Damn.

Alright.

All forces,
engage any hostile target.

Fire at will.
I repeat, fire at will.

[ships firing]

[explosions]

- 'Move out, Alpha 7, move out!'
- 'Alpha 4, overdrive failed!'

[rumbling]

Where the hell
is our support?

What's the position
of the Vesta?

Hanging back,
not engaging enemy.

MacDougan

this is a direct order
from fleet command.

You will engage enemy ships
at once. Do you copy?

'Engage enemy forces
at once!'

[beeping]

Negative, fleet commander.

Vesta will not engage in support

of illegal orders.

(Trevor)
'This is a court martial
offense, Mackie!'

'Do you understand that?'

'Commander Philby,
under the authority'

'of Earthforce command,
I am hereby promoting you'

'to captain and ordering you
to relieve Captain MacDougan.'

'You will bring the Vesta
into the fight.'

'Do you copy, commander?'

I always knew you wanted
a promotion, Bob.

'Never knew how badly
until now.'

[intense music]

Vesta is starting
to come about.

Pollux and Heracles are hit,
but continuing to fight.

Juno, Nemesis and the Furies
are advancing

but have not yet engaged.

We can't divide our forces.

We need to know where to put
our fire power.

Put us on a course
for the Furies.

Tell the others to concentrate

on the Pollux and Heracles.

Let's find out
where she stands.

(John)
'Sheridan to Captain Eckland.'

We are advancing
on your position

but we are not
preparing to fire.

I say again, we are not
preparing to fire.

If you and your fighters
do not lock

your weapon systems
onto our ships

we will assume
you are not hostile

and will not engage.

Are they locking?

Negative.

Might be waiting for us
to get close

and get a clean shot that way.

Well, we're about to find out.

Sheridan to Attack Fleet.

Do not target Furies.
She's non-combatant.

Repeat,
Furies non-combatant.

[rumbling]

That was the Vesta.
Forward guns have us in range.

We've got fighters coming in.

No, I won't fire on her.
Mackie's on board.

We have no choice. They've
locked on, ready to fire.

Damn. Prepare to--

(Edward)
'Vesta to Sheridan.'

Stand by. Mackie, go.

(Edward)
'Commander Philby's promotion'

has just been postponed
by the crew.

The Vesta is non-hostile.
We are standing down.

(John)
Confirmed, Mackie.

- Two down.
- Three.

Juno is withdrawing
from battle.

[instrumental music]

[explosions]

God, the crew.

Get to the life pods.
Get to the life pods.

[explosion]

[rumbling]

(Marcus)
Pollux is destroyed.

Nemesis has taken severe damage
and is offering to surrender.

Get me the Heracles.

Attack Fleet to Heracles.

'You are outnumbered
and outgunned.'

'Your defenses are down
and your weapons disabled.'

'You will return control
of Proxima 3'

'to its lawful government'

'issue the recall order
to all fighters'

'and surrender your vessel.'

'You will comply
with these orders..'

'...or be destroyed.'

- Captain?
- He won't do it.

He knows we can't hurt him.

- He won't fire on us.
- 'You don't know that.'

I'm in charge
of this mission, commander.

I will not surrender Proxima
or stand trial

for following direct orders.

I'm the one they'll hold
responsible, not you.

I'm dead either way.

(John)
'You have 30 seconds.'

I won't let you endanger
this ship

because you are afraid to face

the consequences
of your actions.

Are you questioning
my orders, commander?

No, sir.
I am relieving you of command.

Remove Captain Hall
from the bridge.

Now.

Heracles to Attack Fleet.
The Heracles surrenders.

I say again,
the Heracles surrenders.

We are returning control
of Proxima 3

to its local government.

All fighters, return to base.

It looks as if we won.

No, we've achieved
the mission objective.

a victory.

Too many on both sides
had to die for it.

And this is just the start.

We had surprise on our side
this time.

From now on,
it gets a lot harder.

Have the captains
of the remaining ships

meet me here in one hour.

Let's see if we have
survivors...or allies.

Please be seated.

What happened here today
was difficult for all of us.

But it's over now.

What we have to decide now
is what we do next.

Option one..

You and your crews
can return home.

I won't stop you.

Sooner or later,
the Heracles and her crew

will have to answer
for their actions

'before a military tribunal.'

But that's not our problem
for now.

Option two..

...you can stay here
and help protect Proxima 3

from further retaliation
by President Clark.

And option three..

...you can come with us..

'...join the fight.'

Captain, I wasn't about
to let Captain Hall

get the rest of my crew killed
defending Clark's policies.

I happen to disagree
with those policies.

But that doesn't mean I agree
with your actions either.

It's not the role of
the military to make policy.

Our mandate

is to defend Earth
against all enemies

foreign and domestic.

Now Clark has become
that enemy.

Your oath is to the Alliance
and to the people back home

not to any particular
government.

You're splitting that hair
mighty thin, John.

Am I?

Night watch, Ministry of Peace,
Ministry of Truth?

I mean, is this the same
Alliance you joined

or-or has it become
something else?

'The orders you've been getting
do they represent'

the ideal of the Alliance?

Or of a dictatorship?

You've been ordered to open
fire on civilian targets.

'Is this what you
signed on for?'

Now, we've made contact
with other ships

that have left Earthforce.

They should be getting here
in the next few hours.

Now, some will stay
and hold Proxima.

The others will come with us.

I thought you had all
League Worlds

backing you up.

Why do you need us?

Because I want this
to be a clean fight.

The other worlds
won't fight for us

but they won't get
in our way either.

Now, it's your call.

I'd like you to join us.

We'll kick out Clark
and the Nightwatch

and the rest of that bunch

and we'll turn it over
to the voters.

Let them decide if what
we did was right or wrong.

Because, in the final analysis..

[sighs]

...those are the people
we work for.

We need to talk it over.

Of course.

Issue the joint statement.

I will sign my name.

But not on the same page.

Do you understand that?

Yes...yes, of course.

The others have decided.

Commander Levitt is gonna
retire from the field.

She's gonna take the Heracles
to Beta 9 for repairs.

She's gonna keep Captain Hall
under house arrest

until this is over,
one way or the other.

And the rest?

Eckland is gonna stay behind

and help with the defense
of Proxima.

Kawagawa wants
to sign on with you.

And so do I.

This is Commander Susan Ivanova

bringing you the voice
of the Resistance.

Today, elite forces
dispatched from Babylon 5

engaged a destroyer group
stationed at Proxima 3.

Both sides endured heavy losses.

But we can announce
that Proxima 3

has been liberated from
the forces occupying it.

I repeat, Proxima 3 is free.

Many of the destroyers
enforcing the blockade

have now joined forces
with our ships.

The campaign
to retake Earth has begun.

As a result, we send
this plea to all cruisers

and carrier groups that
have chosen to stand down

rather than execute the illegal
orders of President Clark.

Join us.

'We will keep this channel open'

24 hours a day.

'If you wanna make a stand
for Earth, now is the time.'

[indistinct chatter]

Destination?

Mars.

- It'll take a while.
- Nope.

I've got some people
in high places

taking care of things.

If you say so.
When you coming back?

I'm not.

(Susan on TV)
'In a related move, the Centauri
and Narn governments'

'issued a joint statement today
recognizing the legitimacy'

'of the liberation of Proxima'

'and throwing their support
behind the new campaign.'

'It is our hope
that this unprecedented'

act of cooperation between two
previously hostile governments

will mark the beginning
of a new age

of cooperation and trust.
