Synopsis

Note: This synopsis came from Time-Warner's official Babylon 5 page.

Sheridan (BRUCE BOXLEITNER) talks of investigating the "Triangle" after numerous reports of strange occurrences. While visiting down below in the gray corridor, Sheridan encounters a body that appears to be dead. Upon close inspection, Sheridan is stunned when the hand from the dead body grabs his face. After the bizarre occurrence, Sheridan is left feeling dizzy and begins to have strange, continuous visions of the exploding Icarus -- the ship that his wife was on before her death.

After Dr. Franklin (RICHARD BIGGS) puts Sheridan on medical leave, Sheridan can't seem to ignore the strange force that has grabbed hold of him and as a result, leads him to a dangerous but amazing discovery. Garibaldi (JERRY DOYLE), who fears for Sheridan's safety and his state of mind, searches for the Captain.

Meanwhile, Londo (PETER JURASIK) is surprised by the visit of an old Centauri friend, Urza (CARMEN ARGENZIANO), who has come to Babylon 5 asking for Londo's support against the Centauri government that is charging him with treason. In a quest to save his house and his name, Urza challenges Londo to the Centauri's traditional swordfight -- the Morago -- an honorable, but dangerous challenge where the men fight to the death. Londo reluctantly accepts, realizing that Urza is really fighting him in order to save his family's honor. Vir (STEPHEN FURST) fears for Londo's safety in the battle and tries to prevent him from accepting the challenge.
