Season 1 Opening
688k, 1min 28s
Sinclair, "It was the dawn of the Third Age of Mankind, ten 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 peacefully. It's a port of call,
home away from home for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs and wanderers. Humans and aliens wrapped in two million five hundred
thousand 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."
Flutes for Narn Children
Midnight on the Firing Line, 43k, 10s
G'Kar, "I will confess that I look forward to the day when we
have cleansed the universe of the Centauri and carved their bones into little flutes for
Narn children. It is a dream I have."
And So It Begins
The Parliament of Dreams, 464k, 1min 58s
Delenn, "Will you follow me into fire, into storm, into darkness, into death? And the Nine said
'Yes'. Then do this in testimony to the one who will follow, who will bring death couched in the
promise of new life and renewal disguised as defeat."
Delenn, "From birth through death and renewal, you must put aside old things, old fears, old lives. This is
your death, the death of flesh, the death of pain, the death of yesterday."
Delenn, "Taste of it, and be not afraid. For, I am with you to the end of time. Taste of it.
And so, it begins."
They Must Walk There Alone
Mind War, 243k, 1min 1s
G'Kar, "There are things in the Universe billions of years older than either of our races. They are
vast, timeless, and if they are aware of us at all, it is as little more than ants and we have as much
chance of communicating with them as an ant has with us. We know, we've tried. And we've
learned that you can either stay out from underfoot or be stepped on."
Catherine Sakai, "That's it? That's all you know?"
G'Kar, "Yes, They are a mystery. And I am both terrified and reassured to know that there are
still wonders in the universe, that we have not yet explained everything. Whatever they are, Miss
Sakai, they walk near Sigma 957 and they must walk there alone."
Pestilence, Famine, Death
The War Prayer, 80k, 20s

Their personalities could shatter entire planets!"
Everyone Lies
And the Sky Was Full of Stars, 75k, 18s
Garibaldi, "He lying, I can tell"
Sinclair, "Everyone lies Michael, the innocent lie because they don't want to be blamed for
something they did not do. And the guilty lie because they don't have any other choice. Find out why
he is lying and the rest will take care of itself."

Request Denied
Survivors, 52k, 13s
Ivanova, "I'm a Lieutenant Commander in Earth Force, Major. I do not take demands. If you have a request, I'll consider it."

Ivanova, "Request denied. Have a nice day."
The Vision Is Still There
Signs and Portents, 365k, 1min 33s

Lady Ladira, "When I arrived here, I had a vision about this place."
Sinclair, "He told me, but we came through the attack in one piece. The station is safe."
Lady Ladira, "For now, but the vision, commander. The vision is still there. It is not an easy thing, but I can let you see. If you trust me.
Sinclair, (music, watches the vision of Babylon 5 being destroyed).
Sinclair, "This... is it a vision of what WILL be, or what MIGHT be?"
Lady Ladira, "The future is always changing. We create the future, with our words, our deeds,
and with our beliefs. This is a POSSIBLE future, Commander. And it IS my hope, that you may
yet avoid it."

What Do You Want - G'Kar
Signs and Portents, 178k, 45s
Morden, "What do you want?"
G'Kar, "What do I want? The Centauri stripped my world. I want Justice."
Morden, "But what do you want?"
G'Kar, "To suck the morrow from their bones and grind their skulls to powder."
Morden, "What do you want?"
G'Kar, "To tear down their cities, blacken their skies, salt their ground soft, to completely utterly erase them."
Morden, "And then what?"
G'Kar, "I don't know. As long as my homeworld's safety is guaranteed, I don't know that it matters."
Morden, "I see."
What Do You Want - Londo
Signs and Portents, 159k, 40s
Morden, "What do you want?"
Londo, "I want my people to reclaim their rightful place in the galaxy. I want to see the Centauri stretch forth their hand
again and command the stars. I want a rebirth of glory, a renaissance of power. I want to stop running through my life,
like a man late for an appointment, afraid to.. to look back or to look forward. I want us to be what we used to be. I want ... I
want it all back, the way that it was. Does that answer your question ?"
Fasten Then Zip
Babylon Squared, 118k, 30s
Garibaldi, "Mind if I ask you a question?"
Sinclair, "Sure."
Garibaldi, " Ok, it's morning. You're getting ready to go to work. You pull on your
pants. Do you Fasten then zip or zip then fasten?"
Sinclair, "What kind of question is that?"
Garibaldi, "Well look, we've got two hours to kill."
Sinclair, "Forget it."
Garibaldi, "It's just a question."
Sinclair, "Why do you want to know?"
Garibaldi, "Why do I want to know? Because I think of these things sometimes. I
was getting dressed this moring and for a second I couldn't
remember which I did first. So, I started thinking about it. Does
everybody do it the same way? Is it a left handed/right handed
thing?"
Sinclair, "Do you think about this stuff a lot?"
Garibaldi, "Yeah."
