Garibaldi really, really wanted to have it both ways. Maybe that's him fighting conditioning or whatever, but it's also very Garibaldi. I sometimes wonder if he was waiting for everyone to beg him to come back, or for things to fall apart and he'd be needed. He said that about Stephen once, that sometimes you walk away to see who'll follow you into hell? And his loyalty, to my mind, was always more to Sinclair personally than to EarthForce or certainly to Sheridan.
