1.16 "Eyes" Trivia Quiz

Answer: motorcycle

Garibaldi has been working for years trying to build the motorcycle, and he's very proud of what he's already done. Lennier walks in on him working on it in his quarters. Here's part of their conversation. Lennier asks what he is building and Garibaldi says: "Antique. Mint condition.

The Kawasaki engine ZX-11, vintage 1992. And we are talking liquid-cool dual-overhead-cam 16-valve 1052-cc inline-four, twin-ram air induction, six-speed gear-box and 320-millimeter front disc with four-piston calibers.

It's the best-performance bike of its time. Or it will be when I figure out how to put the damn thing together." Lennier: "Well, sounds most impressive. What exactly does it do?" Garibaldi: "What does it do? It's a motorcycle. You ride it. Wrooom!..." Lennier: "Ah, a vehicle." Garibaldi: "Oh, it's more than just a vehicle.

This baby's a piece of Earth history." Lennier: "History? That is an interest of mine."

Answer: Colonel Ari Ben Zayn

Eyes explains that he is Colonel Ari Ben Zayn, of Earth Force Internal Investigations, and Gray is a military specialist attatched to him from Psi-Corps. He says that they're on the station to conduct a special investigation of Babylon 5's command staff.

Answer: Psi Corps

Harriman Gray is a telepath attached to Earth Force special investigations by Psi Corps, and Bester in particular. His job is to scan the thoughts of the officers as part of a loyalty test during the interrogations.

Answer: Ivanova

This is mentioned when Ben Zayn is discussing their assignment with Gray. While looking at Ivanova's file, Gray comments: "I don't have to handle it. Her record's spotless. There's no reason to include her." Ben Zayn replies: "That's not your decision. And she will be included. Records don't always tell the whole story. That's one of the reasons you're here, Mr. Gray. Remember?"

Answer: Phobos

Due to Babylon 5's nature as a hub for trading, Earth Force is worried that the Mars terrorists might use the station as a location for arms smuggling. So Sinclair tells Garibaldi to keep a lookout. When Ben Zayn starts asking questions about Sinclair, Garibaldi at first thinks that he might be smuggling arms.

Answer: peekaboo

We learn that this is Garibaldi's code when he transfers his files for Ben Zayn to review. Ivanova looks at him questioningly, but Garibaldi points out that she wouldn't have guessed the password.

Answer: Lou Welch

Lou Welch is sitting at a bar in the Zocalo, when Ben Zayn comes up to him and starts asking him questions. Ben Zayn: "So, how long have you been stationed here, Officer Welch?" Welch: "Since B5 went on-line." Ben Zayn: "Do you like it?" Welch: "It beats a kick in the teeth." Ben Zayn: "How about Commander Sinclair? Does *he* beat a kick in the teeth?"

Answer: pilot

Gray tries to explain his upbringing and his relationship with the Corps. He says that as a child he wanted to be a pilot, but that telepaths aren't allowed to join the military, so he had to find another dream. He says that he likes his job because this is as close to being in Earth Force that he can get.

A little later, Ivanova says: "Mr. Gray, I'm grateful Psi Corps gives you a purpose in life, but when that purpose includes scanning my mind to prove my loyalty, it's not only an invasion of my privacy, but my honor.

As for fear, if you enter my mind for any reason I will twist your head off and use it for a chamber pot. If you'll excuse me."

Answer: dockworkers' strike

We knew that this decision caused problems back at EarthGov, since Sinclair really insulted Orin Zento and embarrassed the Senate with his decision. It only makes sense that this would come back and haunt him later on. Garibaldi is also questioned about Sinclair's actions during the Deathwalker incident, since he didn't file a protest against the Vorlons.

Answer: Talia

Ivanova dreams that she sees her mom alive, and two Psi Cops in 'Comedy and Tragedy' masks are giving her the sleepers. Gray is there telling her that she can't interfere with what's happening. Both Ivanova and her mother say "Only one way out."

Answer: submit her resignation

By resigning from Earth Force she is no longer subject to their rules, and therefore does not have to submit to the scan and the loyalty test. Sinclair does not accept her resignation and says that he will find another way to prevent the scan.

Answer: he wants his job

Garibaldi does some digging to find out what Ben Zayn's problem is. He reports to Sinclair and says: "You were both considered for command of Babylon 5. Now, he was in the top ten, you were...well, somewhere below that." Later in the episode, Ben Zayn removes Sinclair from duty and takes over the station. He says: "I'm assuming command of Babylon 5. As of now, I'm in charge."

Answer: cement truck

This is during Ben Zayn's questioning of Garibaldi. He wanted to know why Sinclair did not file a official protest against the Vorlon after they destroyed Deathwalker's ship. Garibaldi replies with the above line.

Answer: Lennier

Lennier finishes Garibaldi's motorcycle for him, which at first kind of upsets Garibaldi, but he gets over it. Here is some of the quote from this section of the episode. Garibaldi: "Too bad we can't ride it." Lennier: "Oh, it's quite ridable." Garibaldi: "Don't tell me you came up with some gas too." Lennier: "Gasoline is harmful to both living beings and the atmosphere, as your people discovered. I have installed a Minbari power source instead. Clean, and efficient." Garibaldi: "Get out of here." Lennier: "Yes. Of course." Garibaldi: "No no no wait wait wait. I didn't mean go, I meant..."

Answer: Ivanova

Ivanova and Sinclair are just getting into a transport tube when Garibaldi and Lennier speed down the central corridor on the motorcycle. Ivanova says the above lines as the doors close.
