Come on.
We should get back to the reception.

1:29:03
By the way,
there is something I've been wondering.

1:29:08
Why Babylon 5?
1:29:11
If the prior four stations
were lost or destroyed...

1:29:15
...why build another?
1:29:17
Plain, old, human stubbornness, I guess.
1:29:20
When something we value is destroyed,
we rebuild it.

1:29:23
If it's destroyed again, we rebuild it again.
1:29:26
And again...
1:29:29
...and again until it stays.
1:29:32
That, as our poet Tennyson once said,
is the goal:

1:29:36
"To strive, to seek, to find,
and not to yield."

1:29:39
A poet?
1:29:40
Someone who writes poems.
1:29:42
A poem: a story in meter or rhyme.
1:29:47
"There once was a man from Nantucket"
1:29:50
You've been talking to Garibaldi again,
haven't you?

1:29:53
Yes.
1:29:54
How did you know?
1:29:56
Just a wild guess.
1:29:58
Open all communications channels.

This is Lieutenant Commander
Laurel Takashima.

1:30:06
Our docking bays stand ready
to receive you.

1:30:08
Babylon 5 is open for business.
