While Knight Two is a bit of the standard mustache-twirling television heavy, it is nevertheless an interesting interrogation sequence. The irony of it all being that, if Sinclair could have been able to use the machine to uncover the events of those 24 hours without Knight Two's paranoia, he may have submitted to the procedure; it is an interesting moment when Sinclair himself gets caught up in the mystery of what has happened.

Just goes to show, that I don't think Knights 1 and 2 were sure if Sinclair was lying or not about the report at first. I mean, they probably planned for 'Minbari memory blocks', but I think they might have been hoping that Sinclair was simply lying and that most of the work was getting out exactly how bad Earth's military was compromised.

If they thought that was something like what Psi Corps did to Talia, where Sinclair's personality wasn't aware of a hidden plant and that he was genuinely loyal, they might have lured him in legitimately, which would save all the hassle of smuggling and kidnapping.

I love the idea that many on Earth who weren't on the Line really didn't understand just how incredibly hopeless mankind's last stand was. Indeed, it always seemed implied to me that the Minbari surrender was spun to make humans come out looking much better by the local government.

::nods:: It's come up before when Sinclair talks about the Line, especially to civilians. I suppose it's scary for the government to admit 'yeah, these folks could wipe us out whenever they feel like it, regardless of how many folks in ships we can get out there to shoot at them, and the only reason they didn't wasn't because of our Heroic Last Stand, but because they are weird aliens who surrendered for no reason they'll tell us'. 'Heroic last stand by our brave men and women and other in uniform' sounds so much better.
