Babylon 5/Recap/Film/Babylon 5: The Lost Tales: Difference between revisions

* [[Demonic Possession]]: Some poor schlub who works on the station as a technician ended up crossing paths with a demon while visiting Earth on leave.

* [[How Unscientific]]: Some fans were pretty upset that this fairly hard sci-fi universe suddenly had a literal demon from Hell in it.

** It doesn't explain why they fear exorcism, however.

* [[Outgrown Such Silly Superstitions]]: It is mentioned that the Catholic Church has been in decline ever since the Earthers gained the means to interstellar travel. If the priest expels the demon immediately, he will have no proof that the possession happened, and the decline will continue. If he allows the demon to stay in possession of his host, it will actually ''benefit'' the church as humanity's belief in the supernatural is restored. Of course, to do so would mean to abandon an innocent man that the priest could have helped, dooming his soul.

** Considering [[The Caligula|who his]] [[Complete Monster|father was]], the kid turned out pretty well, actually.

* [[Space Fighter]]: The venerable Aurora Starfuries are still in service in 2271, and if Galen's [[Flash Forward]] is accurate, they will still be in service in 2301, making for a service record of [[Long Runner|around 60 years or more]] since their earliest chronological appearance during the Earth Minbari War in ''In The Beginning''.

* [[Take a Third Option]]: Sheridan is told that he must murder the young prince before he has done anything wrong, or else allow the war between the Centauri Empire and the Earth Alliance. Instead, he decides to take the Prince into his own household on Minbar and give him the loving upbringing he was denied on Centauri Prime. Galen freely admits that Sheridan's solution is very workable, even preferable from a moral standpoint. His solution would have been ''easier'' though.

* [[Vomit Discretion Shot]]: ''"Was that a new dress?"''
