3.05 "Voices of Authority" Trivia Quiz

Answer: Zack

Garibaldi and Zack are walking through the hall on the way to a meeting. Zack keeps fidgeting with his uniform jacket and starts complaining about how ill fitting it is and how he won't attract girls with it. He then says the above line.

Answer: 7 R

Zack, who is still a member of Nightwatch, becomes very suspicious when Garibaldi sidesteps the meaning of the code.

Answer: Ministry of Peace

Musante has been assigned to Babylon 5 as Sheridan's new political officer. She says that she is from the Ministry of Peace, Nightwatch Division.

Answer: Ivanova

Sheridan, occupied with Musante, askes Ivanova to meet Draal in his place. Draal: "I asked for Captain Sheridan." Ivanova: "He's busy." Draal: "I don't like surprises." Ivanova: "Really? I love them myself. I mean, to me everything is a surprise. You're a surprise, this place is a surprise. You see this? Paper-cut, hurts like hell. Anybody else would be upset, but to me it's just one more wonderful surprise. I mean, I even surprise myself sometimes. Now, I guess there's nothing wrong with me surprising you? Right?" Draal: "Hahhahaha. I like you. You're trouble." Ivanova: "Well, thank you.

It's the nicest thing anybody has said about me in days."

Answer: Zen Garden

Musante, reminiscent of Orwell's book '1984', explains the wonderful advancements on Earth in a dinner meeting with Sheridan at the Fresh Air Restaurant at 1900 hours. She originally meets with Sheridan in his office and then tries to seduce him in his quarters.

Answer: crime

Musante later explains that the problems disappeared by rewriting the dictionary. Musante: "Earth doesn't have homeless. We don't have the problem. Well, yes, there are some displaced people, here and there, but they've chosen to be in their position.

They're either lazy or they're criminal or they're mentally unstable." Sheridan: "They can't get a job." Musante: "Earth-gov has promised a job to everyone that wants one. So, if someone doesn't have a job, they must not want one." Sheridan: "Poverty?" Musante: "It's the same." Sheridan: "Crime?" Musante: "Yes, there is some, but it's all caused by the mentally unstable. And we've just instituted correctional centers to filter them out at an early age." Sheridan: "Prejudice?" Musante: "No, we're just one happy planet."

Answer: Draal is still connected.

Ivanova and Draal's hologram arrive at the heart of the great machine. Draal: "Well, here we are. If you'll just plug yourself into the matrix, we'll take it from there." Ivanova: "It's, um, occupied." Draal: "Hmm? Oh, yes, of course, my mistake. I spend so much time out of my body, I sometimes forget where it is. If you'll excuse me...It will only take a moment to disentangle myself. Hmm, I must remember to dust myself once in a while."

Answer: Ivanova

Ivanova pops into Sheridan's quarters using Draal's holographic projection system, only to find a naked Musante trying to seduce Sheridan. Sheridan kisses Musante to give Ivanova a chance to get out. He excuses himself for a second to talk to Ivanova.

She explains that to catch the First Ones they have to leave now. They exchange the above lines. Ivanova concludes saying, "Good luck, Captain. I think you are about to go where everyone has gone before."

Answer: French

Marcus and Ivanova take the White Star in search of the First Ones. They have a difficult time opening up communication with the First Ones at Sigma 957. Marcus: "I think you just hit a nerve. Vorlons must owe them money or something." Ivanova: "This also tells they understand our language. They are just not willing to speak to us using that." Marcus: "Who knew they were French?"

Answer: Zog

This is a brilliant exchange between Marcus and Ivanova. Ivanova: "Zog? What do you mean zog? Zog what? Zog yes, zog no?" Marcus: "It's leaving. My guess is zog means no." Ivanova: "Like hell. I am not letting them leave here without saying yes." Marcus: "Really? And how do you propose stopping them? Perhaps a big red and white sign with the word 'Stop' on it? I'll put a bucket on my head and pretend to be the ancient Vorlon god Booji." Ivanova: "That's it!" Marcus: "Fine, I'll get a bucket." Ivanova: "No I meant the Vorlons. Open a comm channel now."

Answer: "We will be here."

Ivanova succesfully receives their promise for aid after getting them mad. Here is their conversation. Ivanova: "This is the Whitestar to departing ship. I just want to say I appreciate your response, and I fully understand. The Vorlons said that you wouldn't be up for a fight like this.

In fact, they said in the last war, they carried you, did most the work, while you took most the credit for it. They said if you got involved with this one, you'd just get hurt. Come to think of it, we've got the Vorlons, we don't need much more help, do we? I mean, the Vorlons are really pretty close to perfect, aren't they? And strong." First Ones: "Vorlon Tavutna Chog". Ivanova: "Yeah, whatever. Listen, I'll be sure and give them your message as soon as I get back.

In the meantime, you have a nice flight. We'll be sure and send you a message as soon as the fighting is over, so you can come back out again." Marcus: "I think you're making him mad." Ivanova: "Um hmm." Marcus: "It's bigger than we are." Ivanova: "I know." First Ones: "When it is time, come to this place. Call our name. We will be here."

Answer: The Book of G'Quan

G'Kar is one smart cookie. He has noticed the odd behavior of most of the characters and wants to do something. G'Kar: "I told you I could help. The Book of G'Quan. Read it. We'll talk after." Garibaldi: "I don't read Narn!" G'Kar: "Learn!" Garibaldi: "He hates me. They all hate me. That's why they're doing this. To make me crazy."

Answer: thrilling

Here is Draal's speech to the gathered conspirators: "Delenn tells me that you are going to try contacting the First Ones. It is a magnificent idea. A daring, and splendid idea. In doing so you will see things no human has seen before. It will be fun. Assuming you are not vaporised, dissected, or otherwise killed in an assortment of supremely horrible and painful ways. Exciting, isn't it?"

Answer: Delenn

G'Kar confronts Delenn. G'Kar: "You see, I've noticed that you've been spending quite a bit of time in closed meetings with Captain Sheridan. One might almost get the impression that, uh, something was, uh, up?" Delenn: "Just the usual diplomatic exchanges between our two governments." G'Kar: "Ah, yes, of course, of course. Why, as I'm no longer on the Council, I suppose I've forgotten how to tell the difference between a political session and a private meeting. I heard an interesting word the other day, a word I hadn't encountered before." Delenn: "I am pleased to hear that you are continuing to expand your frame of reference, G'Kar." G'Kar: "What do you know about Rangers?" Delenn: "Nothing. Why? Should I?" G'Kar: "Well, it's a curious thing, Delenn. My contacts have mentioned the word to me from time to time and sometimes they are speaking of a human and sometimes they are speaking of a Minbari. If one didn't know any better, one might conclude that these humans and Minbari are both part of the same organization.

But that seems extremely unlikely, does it not, Delenn?" Delenn: "Yes, extremely." And then Delenn just walks off.

Answer: whiskey

This is classic politics-hating Sheridan. He responds: "A glass of whiskey, a gun and two bullets." This is similar to Sheridan's exchange with Franklin at the end of "A Race Through Dark Places", where after getting rid of Bester he says that he needs a drink.

Answer: Morden

Here is the record of the transmission. Clark: "I've wanted Santiago dead for so long. I wasn't sure we could really pull it off. You're sure it's done?" Morden (not shown): "Earth Force One will never return from Io. The power is now yours, Clark, Mr. President." This is some of the first evidence that Clark's regime has aligned itself with the Shadows, although Sheridan, et al. are not aware of the connection yet.

Answer: Draal

Draal says this to the conspirators in regards to information he has gathered about the First Ones from the databanks of the Great Machine.

Answer: Zack

This a consversation between a very suspicious Zack and Garibaldi. Zack is getting pulled further and further into the Nightwatch propaganda although he has not fully given in to it. Zack: "Nightwatch says the only people who have to worry are the ones with something to hide. You got something to hide, Chief?" Garibaldi: "Look, you got a charge to make, make it.

Otherwise, I don't have time for this." Zack: "No, I don't have a charge to make, dammit. I'm just trying to get through this thing, and it ain't easy. I'm walking a tightrope here, and I thought you'd understand.

But boy was I a jerk. Look, I know you're my superior officer, and we have to work together, but for the rest of the day, just don't talk to me. We'll both be happier."

Answer: 1

Once the footage showing Clark planning the assassination is released, Musante is recalled to Earth and we never see her again. Musante: "Damage control is a great waste of time, effort, and resources, Mr. Allan, but sooner or later we'll find whoever is responsible for this outrage, and they'll be punished, severely, publicly, and permanently."

Answer: "Mind War"

Catherine Sakai was hired to survey Sigma 957 in "Mind War". She was warned of an ancient race by G'Kar. G'Kar: "There are things in the universe billions of years older than either of our races. They are vast, timeless, and if they are aware of us at all, it is as little more than ants, and we have as much chance of communicating with them as the ant has with us. We know, we've tried. And we've learned that we can either stay out from underfoot or get stepped on." Sakai: "That's it? That's all you know." G'Kar: "Yes.

They are a mystery, and I am both terrified and reassured to know there are still wonders in the universe, and that we have not yet explained everything. Whatever they are, Miss Sakai, they walk near Sigma 957, and they must walk there alone."
