Third Space




Third Space was the 3rd(what a coincedence) of the Babylon 5 movies. It plot had no real purpose to the arc created by JMS, but explained things a little bit more, and made you question everything a little bit more. Like the previous movies, it gave us great quotes.

Sheridan, "It was the middle of the Earth year, 2261. The year between wars and the beginning of a new age. The shadow war was over, but there was still a darkness waiting for us at home. President Santiago was assassinated and his successor, president Clark, was turning Earth into a prison camp. We had broken away from Earth and in retaliation, they quarantined us. Trying to strangle our supply lines. We were desperate. We couldn't afford to lose even a single supply ship. In the midst of all of this, we made contact with Thirdspace and we almost did not survive it. I only hope we never come across it again, because next time, no one going to survive it."

Zack, "Maybe there is just a lot of full moons out there, somewhere, lined up, beaming bozo rays into everybody's brains."

Ivanova, "Before things get crazy, I see, and what exactly would you call this?"
Dr. Trent, "Science."

Lyta, "There ... is ... danger ... remember ...

Lyta/ Vorlon, "The door is opening."

Delenn, "Who are you?"
Lyta/ Vorlon, "An echo of what was. A memory. A warning embedded in the thoughts of each generation and passed on to the next."

Lyta/ Vorlon, "They are a power beyond comprehension. A hungry beyond understanding. They are anti-life itself. Older even than we were. Telepathic all of them. They modified the gate, so that it enhances their telepathic impulses. Created an army of our own people willing to die for them. We fought them back, disabled the device, but those controlled by their influence, drop into hyperspace, before we could stop them. Hide it from us."
Sheridan, "What do they want?"
Lyta/ Vorlon, "To destroy all life that is not their own. They believe only they have the right to exist in the universe. That all other life forms are inferior and must be exterminated."

Lyta/ Vorlon, "We tried to stop it, tried to warn you. We failed. And now it is too late. The door is opening."

Lyta/ Vorlon, "Our great mistake, our failing and now your failing. The error is compounded."
Delenn, "What mistake?"
Lyta/ Vorlon, "The first one. The one from which all mistakes precede. The error of pride. We had traveled to a thousand worlds. We brought order, discipline. We appeared to them as being of light. They saw us as emissaries of the universe. They saw us as gods. And we, in our pride, begin to believe them. We believed that we were superior to the universe that gave us birth. We believed that we could transcend this dimension, that we believed that we belonged to a another higher plain. And in the end, in turns you can understand, we resolved to storm the gates of heaven it's self. We applied all our wisdom. All our knowledge, to opening a door to another dimension. A place, we believed was the well of souls, the foundation for all life. We would touch the face of God and in so doing become gods ourselves. We forgot that a door may swing in two direction. We so concerned with getting out, that we never stop to consider what we might be letting in, until it was too late."

Ivanova, "You think anyone would notice if I just killed a few of them."
Franklin, "Well ... How many?"
Ivanova, "I don't know. ugh ... ten?"
Franklin, "Oh, yea, they would notice."
Ivanova, "Six?"
Franklin, "Go for it."

Sheridan, "Yea, well, maybe it is a learning experience for you."
Dr. Trent, "If it is, it's a hell of a painful one."
Sheridan, "Ain't no other kind, Dr. Trent."

Sheridan, "Can you swing by and pick me up on your way in?"
Delenn, "Of course, in the fullness of time."
Sheridan, "And how long is that? This isn't funny Delenn."
Delenn, "Yes it is."
Sheridan, "Oh, no it isn't!"

Vir, "It's not the speaking that the problem, it's the listen."

Sheridan, "It's all true, of course, it's all a lie. Because there are times, we don't need the whole truth. The Vorlons made an error thousands of years ago and we paid the price for it today. Why encouraged anyone else to do the same. We got more than enough trouble of our own. We don't need to inherit anyone else's mistakes

Vir, "Why are you hitting me?"
