Ah, once again, the steady supply of good episodes in the middle towards the end of the series continues in this wonderfully exciting episode. Time is up on the station for Garibaldi, Lyta and G'Kar. First, there is an assassination plot out against Garibaldi because of his position as the new leader of the board at his fiancé's corporation. Second, G'Kar's followers become even more rabid--dangerously so--in their reverence for him. He knows he must leave ASAP or the station will be in chaos. And, as long as he's leaving, he'll take Lyta from the brig and take her on his quest for peace and adventure. Of the two main plots, the most enjoyable is Garibaldi's. This is because once he understands WHY he's to be assassinated, he comes up with a wonderful solution that really made me smile! Considering how interesting this episode is and how well it ties everything together, it's a must-see. Too bad the series did not end with this episode because the final two were amazingly depressing and maudlin.

Objects in motion is the first of three episodes in Babylon 5 that comprises the ending. There are plenty of thrills in this one, including an assassination attempt on Garibaldi, and a mutually beneficial deal with Lyta, G'Kar, and Garibaldi which includes G'kar giving Lyta a ship to find a homeworld for the telepaths and G'Kar, in return, getting a genetic sample from a telepath in order to integrate it into the Narn people's lineage, which has thus far been devoid of any telepaths for a while.

This was a great episode; I really enjoyed the scene when Garibaldi threatened to reveal scandalous information about the board of Edgars Industries in order to get them to step down. Hilarious.
