The ultimate question... Sock, sock, shoe, shoe or sock, shoe, sock, shoe?!?

Jeff Ratcliff

Zathras is one of my favorite B5 characters.

Jbb

Zatharas! Write that name down!

Josef Schiltz

"Angela is having a Zathras! Tch, tch, tch, tch! Happens when great moments meet! Need time to heal. Healing will come! Zathras knows! He does! Trust Zathras!"

kris

the cowardly major was assigned to finalize construction. so fitting out the station. making sure nothing breaks. hes basically a foreman not a diplomat or commander/strategist

The Lore Merchant

Looking forward to the next theory idea rant! I love how this show offers some answers early, but those answers just lead to another layer of questions.

Eirik Myhr

Was I shocked the first time watching this episode? To quote Kosh: «Yes.» Did I eagerly anticipate your reaction to this episode so much that I caught myself laughing right before pressing Play? I’m gonna quote Kosh again: «Yes.» I agree 100% with you about humans, and watching Delenn’s speech about humans in 2026 really puts things in perspective. I also want humans to stop being dicks. Actually, my general rule of thumb regarding most things in life is «don’t be a dick». It shouldn't be too hard. Alas, we live in an age where certain humans with too much power are being grandiose dicks. I can only hope that humanity can still be un-dicked, and that it is not too late. You however seem like a thoroughly good human, Angela. Thrilled to be on this journey with you and your discovery of the best TV series of all time (in my humble opinion).

MaxValPlatt

Sock, shoe, sock, shoe, of course. Feet should have a spare second of freedom before confines of shoes!

Jeff

Sock, sock, shoe, shoe!

Arttu Pylkkö

"fasten and zip or zip and fasten" flg: "WHAT DOES IT MEAN?!?!"

Josef Schiltz

"Great pain on journey. Tool gets damaged! Zathras Knows! Why Zathras moves as he does. With traumatized intelligence!"

Josef Schiltz

"Spell name correctly. Maybe . . . put on monument to Zathras!"

Josef Schiltz

"Name right . . . but not The One!"

Cody Thomas Sinclair

When you've watched the whole series and you know all the course correcting they had to do, it's ballsy to do so much foreshadowing and actually make it all work. This season really is laying the groundwork for everything going forward.

Jeff

Congratulations on completing Level 1 of your Babylon 5 journey. Now use 1x21 to take a deep breath and prepare yourself for .... well... just prepare yourself! And some time in the future, after completing the series and movies, re-watch them and admire just how good a writer JMS is and how adroit he is at weaving plots, plot points, and plot devices into a beautifully interconnected web.

The Sick Gamer

Without spoiling, without revealing what I should not, I can and will happily say this. When you realize Jeff Sinclair's true destiny, when you see where his path goes to and becomes, it will rock you to the core! Big time! I remember when it blew my mind, and I am still feeling the effects of that mind blown moment to this very day... yes, it's that freaky deep. Just wait, it will happen for you too, Angela. It so very will happen.

Chris Bruneau

Zathras always speaks of himself in 3rd person, Zathras doesn't know why!!!

David Stewart

I love the breakdown/analysis of this episode, Angela - I mean that's why I started watching your reactions in the first place :-) But especially this episode knowing what's coming up for you :-) 'This episode was all about destiny'..........yes, in many many ways :-) Some people see the next episode as filler - its not :-) Enjoy the last two episodes - the finale will blow your mind.....season 2....that's another story :-(

2026-10-10 21:00 By the way, note the design of the inner chamber of The Grey Council. The "Descending Stalk and Upended Cup": In the chamber, the massive, central overhead light and holographic projection apparatus descends from the ceiling like a massive axon terminal. The council members themselves stand in a precise, equidistant ring directly beneath the bouton - the up-ended cup. As the Twelfth Doctor might insist, "Google it!" When the Grey Council operates, data, holographic information, and severe judgments are transmitted downward via focused beams of light into the centre of the synaptic cleft. Minbari culture is deeply concentrated on mental discipline, telepathy (the Metai), and the concept of a unified collective consciousness ("We are one"). Designing their highest governing chamber to mirror the very building block of thought and memory would be the ultimate form of in-universe architecture.

Can't wait for Theory Time with Angela next week! 😆

Brian Pickering

Tachyons are a hypothetical particle which may ONLY travel faster than the speed of light. They break a lot of physics, including a possibility of... affecting things in the past. In virtually every case I've heard of them appearing in science fiction, it's basically a code word for "Time Travel is about to happen."

Brian Pickering

So, you asked a lot of questions. I might have missed one here or there, but... I'm pretty certain that they will all be answered, eventually. Some sooner, some later. All I can say is, I had a silly-wide smile throughout this reaction. That's why I watch these... to re-live the feelings of watching the episodes the first time.

Patrick Raiford

This is THE episode that we have all been waiting for you to see ever since you started theorizing about B4. There still episodes to come to see how you will react to them but this one we wanted to see your expression when you find out what happened to B4. And Zathras. I love Zathras. Such a great character. Don't worry everything will be revealed in future seasons but for now enjoy trying to figure out where we go next.

Josef Schiltz

Zathras collects, compiles, many, many thoughts. Does not always KNOW which was Zathras! Maybe, one day, Zathras will get all Zathras together and find which one spoke! No! You forget I said that!"

David Vandervliet

Like Farscape, it takes til the end of season 1 for things to really get going. Now Babylon 5 had more focus at the beginning, withe JMS' strong single voice leading production. while farscape kinda wandered in the desert until the pieces came together around Human Nature.

Josef Schiltz

That way. ;-) - or was it the other way?

Josef Schiltz

I personally recognize his pragmatic fatalism.

john

Yes.

john

Watching this for the first time was an absolute treat. And watching it for the second time after finishing the entire series, was equally as amazing. That reveal at the end when future Sinclair removes his helmet always gives me chills. Also, watching your Doctor Who reaction a few weeks ago when he mentions the Bootstrap Paradox, immediately made me think of this episode. Looking forward to the future reactions. The buildup stage is finally almost over. Then it really starts to get good. Watching B5 is like watching The Expanse. Lots of buildup with a hell of a payoff.

Josef Schiltz

"Was . . . both ways! Now need more Zathras!"

john

Zathras is great. But I much prefer Zathras. 😁

Josef Schiltz

Yep. And those particular dicks need catching in an overzealously ripped zipper. (Kosh goes into a translatory figuring out mode) . . . . "Yes."

Josef Schiltz

That's it! The second zip is just to make sure.

Firefly24601

In his flashback with Lise, Garibaldi is wearing THE most 90s shirt that ever 90ed!

Ben Liddell

Team fasten then zip, there are tshirts for this

Jeff Ratcliff

I'm tempted to a make a L, D, & D joke, but I won't.

Gallows Girl Amy

You've seen the triluminary before. They used it in the interrogation of Sinclair when they grabbed him at the battle of the line.

Wild_Lee_Coyote

This is why I want a Babylon 4 season and not a Babylon 5 remake. There is so much of the Babylon 4 story that is never even touched on.

john

It still blows my mind a bit whenever I watch the first season, at how they still managed to make all of the foreshadowing work despite certain unexpected changes that happened later on.

Algor Langeaux

Practical jokes on Ivanova seem very IMpractical...

Jason Glynn

Can't wait til you see the other side of what happens to babylon 4 angela

Jason Glynn

Babylon 4 looks like a vorlon ship

Jason Glynn

It's either the one that was, or the one that is, or the one that will be

William Wood

A gem of an episode, I was 19 when these came out, loved them, and they tickled my brain. And as others say you get partial answers that lead to deeper questions. The end of the season and start of the next really threw me, I just couldn’t handle the questions but loved the journey

Popcorn73

Zathras, or Zathras?

Popcorn73

Considering the first three Babylon Stations were lost and B4 had become unstuck in time, I'd say the major's reaction was fair under the circumstances lol

Popcorn73

It's fun to dig into my old B5 trivia books again! The blue spacesuit worn by The One was a leased prop from the film 2010, and Babylon 4s ID Code is Elvis Presley's birthday. It was slipped through by the animator without JMS knowing, and he was apparently very annoyed when he found out!

Jeff Ratcliff

I'd have to hear you pronounce it.

Jason Glynn

Can't wait til you find out who stole babylon 4.

Jason Glynn

War without end part I and ii is the other side of this I can't wait til you see it
