BPP 314 – Ship of Tears
Manage episode 198314854 series 1527883
Bester is back.
It seems that he has some common ground with the Babylon 5 command staff where President Clark and the Shadows are concerned. Sort of an, “Enemy of my enemy is my friend,” type of relationship here. Make no mistake, though, his first loyalty is to his fellow telepaths.
It’s a good thing he’s concerned, too. It seems that the Shadows are somehow weaponizing telepaths. One of the telepaths turns out to be someone Bester knows quite well. In fact, we see a somewhat softer side to him. Just don’t let that make you overly sympathetic. He’ll be back to his normal self soon enough. At least, the Babylon 5 team have gotten another ally out of this mission.
G’Kar is also brought into the fold. Delenn takes the unpleasant task of telling him the story. The whole story. It’s a painful and moving moment that shows us just how far the G’Kar character has evolved. Both stories are brought together with a surprise at the end that explains Narn history and provides hope for the future.
