Rewatch for Season 3, Episode 2 – Convictions

One of the most famous scenes in the show and a chance for Sheridan to show off.

Read the analysis and some comments from JMS at The Lurker’s Guide to Babylon 5.

This episode has quite a bit of humor and lots of crazy.

Lennier is waiting for Delenn and actually lies to get away from a loud man, then he saves Londo from a bomb. There is a mad bomber on the loose on Babylon 5. Lennier ends up unconscious and Londo feels guilty and talks to him while he’s in Medlab. There are several more bombs and G’kar and Londo end up stuck in the elevator.

Sheridan to the rescue and they find the BIG bomb that the mad bomber set to blow the station because he lost his job!

We also meet Brother Theo and his friends… I wish we’d seen a lot more of him. He was a cool dude.

G’kar sings the fishie song!

1. Did this advance the arc?
2. Did you feel sorry for Londo? I think might have been the last time he was funny and almost likable.
3. Where exactly did Sheridan put his comm?
4. Wasn’t the bomb a little big for no none to notice?


How many Centauri does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Just one, but in the great old days of Republic hundreds of servants would change a thousand lightbulbs at our slightest whim!

Hm, yes, Londo and G'Kar in the elevator is delish, but this is still a filler episode.

I think I'll always feel bad for Londo. It's so obvious from the start that he'd fucked up so badly. I think Lennier might be one of the very few people Londo can count as a friend because even though he and G'Kar have their thing, it's always been extremely volatile. Lennier, though? Gently approving, always willing to listen, but also with a spine of steel.

(I'm pretty sure this is the time period talking, but the way Garibaldi and Zac refused to name the Drazi deity right was cringey.)
