"Revelations" is an episode from the second season of the science fiction television series Babylon 5.

Synopsis

The Babylon 5 Council meets, but nothing is accomplished due to two absences: G'Kar and Delenn. G'Kar is chased by some Shadow fighters, apparently in Quadrant 37.

Captain Sheridan's sister Elizabeth pays him a visit and they try to reconnect and recover from the death of Sheridan's wife Anna two years prior.

Sheridan helps Dr. Franklin to heal Garibaldi with the help of the Alien Healing Device.

Delenn emerges from her cocoon.

Mollari's involvement with Morden becomes more complex and dangerous, as G'Kar's warning about an ancient enemy falls on deaf ears.

The Narn send a ship to Z'ha'dum; the ship is destroyed.

Garibaldi's aide is discovered and captured with Talia-inspired Garibaldi memory recollection. He gives an "OK" salute (thumb and forefinger form an O, the rest are straight) and says "be seeing you" - as do the inhabitants of the village in The Prisoner

Delenn reveals her transformation. She now has long brown hair, and appears more human.

G'Kar recites part of a poem, "And what rough beast...Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?"

At President Clark's request, Garibaldi's aide is extradited to Earth, never to be heard from again.[1]

Arc significance

  • The planet Z'ha'dum is mentioned for the first time by G'Kar speaking to the Babylon 5 Council at time reference 25 min 30 sec.[1]
  • Delenn's new form is revealed.
  • Anna Sheridan's back-story will have repercussions in later episodes.
  • Michael Garibaldi recovers from his injuries and discovers the betrayal by his Aide.

Production details

  • The poem selection G'Kar recites is from "The Second Coming" by William Butler Yeats published in 1920.
