2.14 "There All the Honor Lies" Quiz

Answer: quick buck

Sheridan explains to Ivanova that in order to raise more funds so that Babylon 5 can support itself, Earth has authorized the sale of B5 merchandise in a new souvenir shop. Ivanova comments: "Welcome to Babylon 5, the last best hope for a quick buck." Sheridan: "Commander." Ivanova: "But it's just demeaning. We're not just some...deep space franchise.

This station is about something." I love that last line, since it is a not so subtle attack on the 'Star Trek' franchise and 'ST: Deep Space Nine' in particular, since both 'DS9' and 'B5' were on television at the same time. "Babylon 5" had to continually fight to exist, whereas 'DS9' floated along on the 'Star Trek' label.

Answer: live animals

The Babylon 5 Emporium, had it remained open, would indeed have netted a large profit. Babylon 5 is a hub of activity and travel, there are thousands of people arriving and departing the station every day. As we see in other episodes, Babylon 5 is a tourist attraction in itself. So, the shop will get the business of an amusement park and international airport, combined.

Answer: brother of Ashan

Sheridan was framed in the attack on Levell by Ashan and Levell, himself. The evidence for the setup was removed, leaving only the witness, Ashan, to verify Sheridan's account. Sheridan and Garibaldi try to sort things out. Sheridan: "You find that Minbari witness I mentioned in my report.

He will back me up, I am absolutely sure." Garibaldi: "Description?" Sheridan: "Bald, with a bone on his head." Garibaldi: "We're gonna need a real big line-up room."

Answer: his action figure is missing attributes

When Londo was in the shop, some Centauri girls were laughing at Londo's doll. Londo takes the doll and then demands to see Sheridan and Ivanova about the merchandise. He brings the action figure to the office, but they don't see the problem with it. Londo: "It's a mockery.

It doesn't even have any...ahhem...attributes." Sheridan: "Attributes?" Londo: "Do I have to spell it out for you?" Londo kind of gestures, and they suddenly understand what he is talking about (missing the tentesticles). Ivanova: "I see. So, you feel like you've been symbolically cast...in a bad light." Sheridan: "Well put." Sheridan then orders the dolls removed.

Answer: Beauty in the dark

With all that was going on, Sheridan really didn't want to do the lesson at that time, but that made Kosh even more determined. Kosh takes him to Downbelow and indicates that he should go into the room. Sheridan: "Why? What's inside there?" Kosh: "One moment of perfect beauty." Sheridan goes in, and after a small donation, the room comes alive with light and the singing of monks. Later, when Sheridan meets back up with Ivanova, she asks: "Another lesson? What this time?" Sheridan: "...Beauty...In the dark." Ivanova: "Must be working. You begin to talk just like a Vorlon."

Answer: Drazi

Answer: being all alone in a crowd

Sheridan and Delenn consider the events over the last couple of days. Sheridan: "I never thought there could be anything worse than being all alone in the night." Delenn: "But there is. Being all alone in a crowd. You feel cut off from your people, from your government, you even begin to doubt yourself. I understand it so well that it cuts to my heart."

Answer: Vir

Vir learns that a replacement for him is being sent to Londo from Centauri Prime. While Vir is drinking, Londo comes up to him. During their conversation, Vir says: "Oh, yes, I'm keeping your secrets. Londo, I feel like I'm falling in a pit and there's no way of climbing out." Londo: "Do you want to leave, is that it? I can arrange it. You can go back home to..." Vir: "To what? To my family? Do you think that if they wanted me around I would even be here.

They just wanted me anywhere, anywhere away.

They had me sent here two years ago because, frankly, there wasn't much competition for the job. This was a joke to them. Before I left, my uncle said to me you and I deserve each other." Much later Londo comments on the results of Vir's drunken behavior the day before: "Your first hangover. Enjoy it. I remember my first hangover. Well, actually that's not true. If I remembered it, it wouldn't be a real hangover." Londo also tells him that if Vir has to go, then Londo will go too, because he doesn't want Vir to be replaced.

Answer: Guinevere Corey

Corey walks in on the end of a meeting between Sheridan, Delenn, Lennier and Ashan. She says: "May I ask what you are discussing here?" Sheridan: "The only thing that matters...the truth." Corey: "Ah, yes, the favorite song of the legally ignorant." After the rest leave, Sheridan says: "I don't appreciate being called ignorant in front of others." Corey: "I'm sorry. Is naive better?" Sheridan: "And I don't need a lawyer." Corey: "Now we're back to ignorant."

Answer: Londo

After Sheridan clears up the Londo-doll incident, Londo says: I do not lie when I say this could have been a major embarassment to all concerned." Sheridan: "Oh, I'm sure, Ambassador. You don't lie, the Minbari don't lie, no one around here..." Londo: "Who said the Minbari don't lie? Oh, never mind. Good day." Sheridan: "Are you saying they do lie?" Londo: "Oh, it was nothing important." Sheridan: "Londo, I have a critical situation here hinging on Minbari honesty. Now if you know something..." Londo: "A certain Minbari once lied to save a certain Centauri ambassador from embarrassment. Apparently there is honor in helping another save face." Sheridan: "They'd lie to protect someone's honor.

The question becomes, who, or what is being protected."
