"Hunter, Prey"

"Bay 13? Nobody goes to bay 13."
"That's what the Commander tried to tell him."

	-- Garibaldi and Corwin in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"Commander, I want all outgoing ships checked out before they leave. Slow down jump clearances as much as you can. Tell them we are having .. mechanical problems."
"That they'll believe."

	-- Sheridan and Ivanova in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"He is the best there is."
"Stephen. The last time you vouched for a doctor friend of yours we had three dead bodies, half the station was trashed and an Ikarran war machine was burning through decks and shooting at everything."

	-- Doctor Franklin and Garibaldi in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"I found myself near bay 13 earlier and had look on your ship. It's an amazing piece of work. It made me realize just how much we still don't know about you, your culture, your people. And I was thinking, maybe we should spend some time together soon. Build some bridges, work toward a greater understanding of one another."
"Why?"
"You tell me. You're the one who popped in my dream when I was in that alien ship a few weeks ago. It felt like.. I don't know.. like you called me."
"I sought understanding. I listened to the song. Your thoughts became a song."
"Has this ever happened before?"
"Once."

	-- Kosh and Sheridan in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"These guys are about as subtle as a brick through a glass window, but they know their stuff. I'd hate to be on the wrong side with this bunch against me."

	-- Garibaldi to Sheridan in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"We need to accumulate as much evidence as we can so when we go public with this we'll hit the target. Because in this game, Captain, we only get one shot."

	-- Aide to Sheridan in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"I don't believe anybody."
"What a wonderful world you live in."
"Yeah, well, the rent is cheap, the pay is decent and I get to make my own hours."

	-- Garibaldi and Franklin in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"Won't you be recognized?"
"Are you kidding? First, I don't get into down-below a lot. Second, when I do they don't see me, they see the badge. And third, I have an excellent disguise. Lets go."
"Why is my life suddenly passing before my eyes?"

	-- Doctor Franklin and Garibaldi in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"Good. The sooner we get him out of here into a nice, comfortable interrogation room, the happier I'll be about the whole thing. Yep. You're right. He's gotta be in down-below."
"Well, sir, you don't know that for sure."
"Commander, where else could he be? I mean, come on, next thing you'll say he's in down-town."
"I didn't see anything called 'down-town'."
"Well, it's sort of an unofficial name for this area right in here. It's between the hull and the water reclamation system. It's pretty much the most unpleasent part of the station, not counting the methane bathrooms. It's full of heavy machinery, lead walls and pipe all over the place."
"Lead? That is just the kind of thing he'd use to block the scanners."
"You think so?"
"Cranston here. Take the search team out of down-below for now. Check levels fifty and fifty-one between the blue and grey sectors. And post guards at all the entrances and exits to down-below."

	-- Sheridan, Ivanova and Agent Cranston in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"Maybe somebody should've labeled the future: some assembly required."

	-- Garibaldi to Franklin in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"You wanted to see me?"
"You wanted to see me."
"Oh, I guess everybody does. To see what you really are, inside that encounter suit."
"They are not ready. They would not understand."
"Am I ready?"
"No. You do not even understand yourself."
"Could you help me to understand you?"
"Can you help me to understand you?"
"Well, I can try. Is that what you want? In exchange of information I tell you something about me and you tell me something about you."
"No. You do not understand. Go."

	-- Sheridan and Kosh in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"Dammit, what do you want? What do you want from me? You know, ever since I got here I've had the feeling that .. that you've been watching me. The record shows you hardly ever went to council meetings until I showed up. When I was captured, it was you .. reached out and .. touched my mind. And now you call me here. Why? Just to throw me out? Are we just toys to you, huh? What do you want?"
"Never ask that question."
"At least I got a response out of you. So, what will it be, Ambassador?"
"I will teach you."
"About yourself?"
"About you. Until you are ready."
"For what?"
"To fight legends."

	-- Sheridan and Kosh in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"You were his teacher, what did he get in first-aid class?"
"4.0"
"3.7!"

	-- Garibaldi, Dr. Franklin and Dr. Jacobs in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"It's what we suspected all along, but could never prove. The Vorlons use organic technology. It's a living ship. Conscious, aware."

	-- Sheridan in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"

"While I was asleep. The .. the ship, it .. it sang to me."

	-- Dr. Jacobs in Babylon 5:"Hunter, Prey"
