Guest stars: Robert Foxworth as General Hague. Marshall Teague as the Narn.
Captain Sheridan is abducted. General Hague visits Babylon 5.
On an escorted scout mission to explore unusual astronomical activity in a nearby sector, Captain Sheridan is attacked and kidnapped by aliens. He is subjected to a series of experiments by his unseen captors, including being forced to fight members of other species. With Minbari Ambassador Delenn's assistance, Commander Ivanova locates the alien ship and destroys it after Sheridan escapes.
Because of her changed appearance, Delenn arouses suspicion in the Minbari Grey Council. They question her allegiance and summarily remove her from the council. A frightening fundamental shift is indicated by their choice as a replacement for the religious Delenn: Neroon, a warrior.
Sheridan's superior, General Hague (ROBERT FOXWORTH), finally advises Sheridan on his mission after six months of service. Hague suspects that the assassination of President Santiago on Earth Force One signals a much greater conspiracy to control the government, and he asks Sheridan to risk treason by secretly investigating the situation. Sheridan calls his trusted senior staff together to decide what to do.
