THIRD SEASON ("Point of No Rerun")

MATTRESS OF HORNETS
The Centauri set up hornets around Sqornshellous Zeta, so the ranchers that are in a summer camp in there won't be able to leave the place.

An Earth modiste comes to the station in order to find out what do the other major governments know about Shadows' clothing.
CONVECTIONS
A series of critical failures in the station's water heating systems is detected and stopped by a bunch of monks.
A DAY IN THE STRIKE
Another strike hits the station and Sheridan has to deal with it. An alien player bluffs during a poker game, but Sheridan outbluffs him. Not'Far, sent by the Centauri, arrives to replace K'Gar as the official Narn player in the station for the Doom tournaments. London gets rid of Vir by sending him away to another TV show, much to Vir's dislike of this maneuver (he'd rather... just... sing).
VICES OF AUTHORITIES
Ivanova, spying from the planet near the station, discovers some bad habits of Captain Sheridan, Drool, the Vogons and a really nasty habit of Earth Alliance President Arthur Clarke, former President of Vices. K'Gar has a very bad time working as a surveyor.

TURD TO TURD
Turd (an addictive drug that allows a person to control someone else's sphincter) is found on the station, prompting a visit by the Psi-Cop Pester, who wants it back. K'Gar gets a Turd dose, and uses it against London - but Centauri excrement happens to be a heavy Narn hallucinogen, so K'Gar ends up having worrisome visions.
EXXON NEMESIS
Ivanova performs some sexual harassment, with varying results (Lieutenant Coffin stands back, and Narcus tries to go for it). Franklin investigates an invasion by parasitic aliens that attach themselves to humans. When he discovers they're not the well-intentioned Vindrizi they claim to be, but rather they are disguised Trills, he kicks them off the station and off the entire galaxy for good. During the investigation, Narcus confesses to Franklin that he hates Exxon to death.
MASSAGES FROM EARTH
Sheridan discovers that the Minbari masseuse aboard the White Stuff ship is much better than the human masseurs he's used to, and decides to stick with her. Earth Force does not like this, and sends Sheridan's old wartship to force him to retract. President Clarke declares Earth under Martian law (which is odd, considering Mars is an Earth colony).
POINT OF NO RERUN
PTEN announces no more B5 reruns will be aired. Political analyst Christine Chapel predicts that the Mollari/Cotto team will win the upcoming Centauri elections. President Palpatine Clarke dissolves the Senate and the NightWart tries to control the station by force, but they're stopped by a squad of Narns with baseball bats.
SEVERED REARS - 1997 Huguenot Award Winner
The Masseuse Incident grows out of proportion, and Clarke (being an ex-masseur himself and still a member of their union) sends his military police to the station to kick Sheridan's butt. Some military officers get to know this and go to help Sheridan, and to kick the military police's butts. A drunken Minbari tells Delenn that the Non-Alighted worlds are kicking each other's butts, so she goes to see the Grey Council, kicking some of the members in the butt for their laziness. Mars Government refuses to apply Martian law (one has to wonder why...), so President Clarke orders to have their butts kicked. ISDN noses in, as usual, so Clarke also has their butts kicked. When the military police arrives to B5 they begin butt-kicking all over, but the invading soldiers are intercepted by Narns that did not get to kick Centauri butts, and want to finally kick something. Delenn returns to the station with some heavy boots, and threatens to have them stuck in the military police's butts: they get scared at this prospect and finally leave.
All in all, an ass-kicking episode.
CEREMONIES OF BLIGHT AND WARTS
As the NightWart members are kicked off the station, some of them manage to kidnap Delenn and demand the station's remaining warts as ransom. Sheridan, not wanting to cancel his dinner with her at Frost Air (the most expensive restaurant in the vicinity), goes out and rescues Delenn. Later, Ivanova divulges the real reason she cried when Talia left: Talia owed her big bucks. London is jealous of Refa's dating with Mordant, so he poisons Refa. Gary Baldy meets a cousin of Eddie, the shipboard computer.
A LATE DELIVERY FROM ALCATRAZ
Logan, a sandman, arrives to the station investigating a clue obtained from a runner that tried to reach the Sanctuary. He is quite surprised when he discovers most of the people here are older than 30, have no life clock, and Doctor Moreau's bizarre creations are everywhere. Narcus realizes that he's actually that stupid guy that started the Earth/Minbari war when he confused the first cooperative DOOM game between both species with a deathmatch, and now has assumed this fictitious identity to cover his sorry ass.
SICK TRANSIENT VIPS
During a weekend visit to the station, Vir discovers that an ex-girlfriend of her still has the hots for him. She, for old times' sake, asks Vir for a little present, namely a still beating Narn heart. His refusal (and the fact that Vir's been passing injured Narns through customs as if they were ambassadors, business men and the like) angers London so much that he manages to have Vir's contract cancelled on that other TV show.
CAR OF FEARS
The Psi-Cop Pester arrives to the station with disturbing news: the Shadows have infiltrated the Psi-Cars in order to sell the enormous stock of Dodge cars they have. Furthermore, they have trained some Psi-Cars members to drive them so insanely that they make everyone afraid. Delenn finally confesses to K'Gar that she knew the Centauri were cheating in the Doom deathmatch tournaments against the Narn.
INTERRUPTIONS AND EXAGGERATIONS
London is having a date with a former girlfriend, but Mordant interrupts and ruins the whole evening. Ambassador Kosher of the Vogons plays a prank on the Shadows (he opened their bathroom door, and everyone got to see them with their pants down doing #2), so they play back another one, and it gets out of proportion (again).
RUNABOUT
Ambassador Kosher arrives back to the station in a runabout he took from his home. After more than two years, this dirty Vogon has finally changed his clothing. Franklin meets a singer and they both talkabout a lot of irrelevant stuff. The Shadows play a DOOM deathmatch against Sheridan - they think they're unbeatable, and run off scared when they realize the cheat keys are useless in a multiplayer game.
WART WITHOUT END, PART 1
An impressively huge wart appears near Minbar, and Sinclair begins exploring it. Huge as it is, it extends up to Babylon 5, and when Sinclair arrives there, Sheridan, Delenn and an unemployed math teacher join him in the exploration. During their voyage, Sheridan eats something that makes him deage until he's a baby. The group arrives at a stopping point that turns out to be a hidden Babylon 4, where Sheridan defecates while he dreams about how things will be when he's again a grown-up adult.
WART WITHOUT END, PART 2
Sheridan continues day-dreaming while the rest of the people are exploring. Finally, Sinclair decides he's going to continue the exploration until he sees the end of the wart, and that the best way to do it is by taking B4 as his ship. He cleans out Sheridan's excrements and goes away with the station, leaving everyone and everything behind, except for a Minbari costume he used in a recent party.
17 GREYHOUNDS ARE MISSING
Gary Baldy investigates the disappearance of some buses from the station's transport system, and finds out they've been taken by some people that want to visit Elm Street. The ranchers begin selling their ranches to Delenn, but Nero doesn't like this, as he also wants to buy them. Narcus delays him by doing a ben'chmark of his staff in front of him, forcing Nero to arrive too late to the auction.
AND THE TOAD CRIED OUT, NO WARTS IN THIS PLACE
Some information smugglers arrive to the station, disguised as Jehovah's Witnesses (so no one will want to spend any time with them in the customs checkpoints). London tells Refa there's an awful lot of warts in an abandoned building in Narn, so Refa goes looking for them. Right after realizing it was just a prank, he gets confused with a practise target by a Narn Bat Squad. Delenn buys a big lot of Pentiums, so Sheridan can upgrade his network and replace the DOOM deathmatch tournaments with Quake deathmatchs.
SHADOW FRAGGING
The first Quake deathmatch against the Shadows is prepared, but the non-alighted worlds don't want to use their computers, as they are old and slow. Franklin is attacked, but his twin brother rescues him. The deathmatch is played, and the Shadows surrender - but for every frag Sheridan and co. score, the Shadows made two. Delenn decides she hates snowglobes and proceeds in consequence.
Z'HA DOOM
The Shadows invite Sheridan to their house to play their most famous PWAD - Z'ha DOOM. Sheridan plays a deathmatch with them, and when he begins losing it he has a tantrum and breaks stuff all over the place, until he leaves in a subway. Gary Baldy goes hitchhiking.

FAILING HOWARD'S APOLOGIES
While the Vogon Constructor Fleet does its demolishing job, Howard (a security guard) shoots Ambassador Kosher accidentally with his PPG. When he refuses to apologize, Ambassador Kosher decides to read in public some of its poetry as a punishment - Arthur Dent and some other people kill him to avoid billions of horrible deaths.
THE LONG BLIGHT
The Shadows send out their own demolisher to aid the Vogons in their job. Emperor Cartilage gets the flu, so London injects him some penicillin - unaware he's allergic to it.

ENTER THE OLD FART
London learns that Mordant used to work as a puppeteer; disgusted by this, London destroys his puppets - Mordant loses his head complaining about this abusive act. During the tea, Sheridan brings on Zaphod Beeblebrox, President of the Imperial Galactic Government, and informs him that the hyperspace bypass the Vogons are building (aided by the Shadows) does not conform to current regulations. Zaphod agrees, suspends the construction indefinitely and fires both Vogons and Shadows for their incompetent performance, taking them away with him.
EPIGLOTTIS
Gari Baldy quits his job, because he feels he's too fat for his duties (too much Bagna Cauda during his hitchhiking?). Pester and Sheridan try to have a picnic at Z'Ha'Dum, but are forced to cancel their plan when the planet goes Z'ha'BOOM. Zax invites Litany to his second favorite thing in the universe. The Great Maker edits out a scene where John & Delenn kissed, and she stuck her tongue up to his epiglottis.

RAISING MARS BARS
The station's supply of candy bars runs out, so everyone gets a part in the task of replenishing it: Ivanova arranges for shipments full of Snickers, Zax takes responsibility for Three Musketeers bars, and Franklin and Narcus go to the nearest store to buy a big Mars Bars pack. Gary Baldy, however, refuses to take care of the Milky Way bars, and this angers Sheridan very much. Lennier watches a Daffy Duck cartoon, but doesn't understand it.
LIENS OF COMMUTATION
Narcus and Franklin run out of money paying the Mars Bars' liens for every ship they commute to on their way back to the station, as export regulations require. While in her farm, Delenn is attacked by a bunch of drakes (released from their yard by Forall), but she successfully repels them.
COMFITS OF INTERNISTS
When Franklin arrives back at the station, he gives several packs full of comfits to some of the internists that work in the Medlab with him, so everybody else wants to get some, too. Ivanova begins hosting a new TV talk show. Gary Baldy wanders around with some friends; while in a store, one of them shoplifts a perfume, and they all get in trouble running away from the pursuing clerks.
RUMORS, LIES AND VIDEOTAPE
Lennier, while engaged to Delenn, is having an affair with her sister. Nero, an old friend of Lennier's, arrives and takes a friendly interest in Delenn. Later, Nero films Delenn's sister talking about her sexual experiences. Delenn discovers this, and forces him to tape her too. After that, Delenn dumps Lennier and begins a relationship with Nero, who destroys his tapes.
Written & directed by Steven Soderbergh.
MODEMS ON TRANSMISSION
As a planet-wide two-team Quake deathmatch reaches a climax on Minbar, Delenn and Shakily agree to dance into the light - however, he jilts her. When Nero learns of this, he takes Shakily's place to save Delenn from the embarrassment. The deathmatch ends up with a tie. Gary Baldy imports quietly some powders for Edgar Williams. Litany loses a bet she made with Pester, and takes it quite badly. Sheridan learns that Clarke's been illegally expropriating other people's warts, so he decides to end this wart-ripping once and for all.
NO SURRENDER VALUE, NO RETRIEVAL
Clarke's insurance company is refusing either to pay the proper indemnifications to the proximal people or return the warts Clarke ripped off from them; he even sends his insurance agents to harass them.

THE EXECRABLE VITIATED POWDERS

Sheridan is caught cheating at poker, and has to face its consequences. Edgar Williams tells Gary Baldy a bedtime story; however, Gary Baldy doesn't like it, so he has Pester tell him another one, which is even more disgusting. After that, Edgar Williams, still not believing his food was that bad, eats the rest of it - with disastrous results.

ENDER'S GAME
Ender Wiggin, who turns out to be a bugger agent, deploys the "Dr. Device" weapon against Earth. Sheridan and other persons, who were fighting for some Mars Bars packs, notice this and destroy the weapon before it reaches the planet, but fail to get hold of Wiggin before he takes his own life.
RISING WARTS
After stopping Clarke's wart-ripping campaign, Sheridan reports to the dermatologist's Union to justify his actions. Though Sheridan's intention was a respectable one, his methods weren't, so his dermatologist license is revoked in punishment. Delenn proposes to the Centauri, the Narn and the Non-Alighted worlds to interconnect their computer networks, thus founding the Internet. Earth joins when they're offered Linux for their computers, liberating them from the slow & less efficient Micro$oft operating systems.

By the end, the Humans are ready to flee Earth and beg for sanctuary somewhere, but the Minbari hear the Vogons' beggings and stop their attack. London tries to continue, but the kids beg him to stop, as they are bored and don't care at all about such a dumb story.
