Except he's only reaching back to something has did feel. In the next episode he says 'It was years before I could look at a Minbari without wanting to strangle him with my bare hands' with real venom. I liked his act here, precisely because it made sense. He's actually moved on, but Biggs has probably met several people who couldn't and so is convinced.

No, I suppose there's a point there. I can see why Biggs would buy it, particularly since a) he would want to, and b) there's the "loyalty test" and all lined up for him, so they're not just taking him for that one comment. I just - watching, I found Sinclair utterly unconvincing *g*.
