Plot Summary[]
After President Clark declares martial law, General Hague's fleet of ships are attacked by Earth Alliance forces. Only Hague's flagship, the Alexander, survives, and travels to Babylon 5 for repairs. Eneya brings Dr. Franklin to attend to a Minbari Ranger, injured while returning to the station with key information. The Minbari reports that the Shadows have engaged the Non-Aligned Worlds in civil and interplanetary wars, creating chaos. Delenn decides to see the Grey Council, angered by their ambivalent response to the situation. Jason Sheridan's 16-year-old daughter, Emily is there to bid Eneya and Kaskoff farewell until her father arrives and tells her to join them to the Grey Council. Emily tries to protests, but her father refuses. Jason tells his daughter that with danger to Babylon 5 looming, he needs her off the station and out of harm's way. The two hugged as Eneya, Kaskoff, and Emily depart from the station. Sheridan nears breaks down in tears at the thought that it would've been the last time that he sees his daughter.
When the Alexander arrives, Sheridan, Veronica Cole, and Richard Spicolli learns that General Hague was killed in an attack. His second-in-command, Major Ryan, has attempted to continue Hague's resistance. President Clark orders the bombing of the Mars colony, which is resisting the martial law order. Hundreds of civilians are killed. The news network ISN, which has avoided broadcasting material critical of Clark, reports that the Proxima III and Orion VII colonies have seceded from the Earth Alliance. The television station is raided by Earth Alliance forces, terminating their broadcast. Another ship arrives, the Churchill, under Captain Sandra Hiroshi. She warns that the Earth Alliance is aware of the Alexander's presence and ships are en route to seize control of the station. Sheridan enlists G'Kar's Narn to augment his security forces under Spicolli. Sheridan then announces Babylon 5's secession from the Earth Alliance.
Eneya reaches the Grey Council. When they refuse to speak with her, she barges into their chamber and addresses them, warning that all of their prophecies have come to pass. She declares the Council broken and departs, supported by the worker and religious caste council members.
The Alliance ships Agrippa and Roanoke arrive, demanding the station's surrender. A firefight breaks out. Spicolli, his security forces, and the Narn stop a boarding party, incurring many Narn losses. The Churchill is critically damaged and Hiroshi uses the last of its power to ram the Roanoke, destroying both vessels. The combined forces of the station and Alexander destroy the Agrippa. As they assess the damage, more Earth Alliance ships arrive demanding Babylon 5's surrender. Suddenly additional jump points open and Minbari warships arrive. Both Eneya and Emily warns the Earth Alliance ships that Babylon 5 is under Minbari protection. The Earth Alliance ships withdraw.
As the station and Alexander complete repairs, Ryan states he will depart, hoping to split the Alliance's attention. Cole leads Sheridan to the Zocalo, where he reunites with both Emily and Eneya and the residents applaud Sheridan's decision to have Babylon 5 take a stand against Clark.
