* MindRape: The Knights use this on Sinclair but when Sinclair breaks free he inadvertently makes the machine pull one on the Knight Two

The next day, after the psychotropics has been flushed from Sinclair's body, he asks to see Knight Two. The meeting does little, the man's brain has been scrambled, leaving him with little more than a vacant expression. He does react to Sinclair, saying there's something in his head saying they both might still be inside.

Knight Two asks if anything has ever made him question that. Sinclair is about to respond, when he suddenly remembers the Minbari warrior from "[[Recap/BabylonFiveS01E00TheGathering The Gathering]]" saying, "There is a hole in your mind." Knight Two seizes on this, and convinces Sinclair to go and look. He finds himself back with the robed figures, but this time he goes up to one and pulls up the hood. He pauses, saying, "I know you." He is then shot by the staff weapon again, but this time he manages to reconnect with his physical self. He yanks himself out of his restraints, destroys Knight Two's cyber interface, and knocks Knight One out. It is clear he is delusional as his leaves the room and begins wandering the station. As he encounters various people in the halls, [[DeliriousMisidentification he sees the cloaked figures]], rather than who they really are, which prompts him to fire on one of his own security personnel as she tries to talk to him. She begins to call in his location, but Knight One has woken up and shoots her InTheBack before she can send the message. Ivanova traces the link and sends Garibaldi toward that location.
