** Londo certainly wants to win the war against the Narn but strongly protests the use of mass drivers against them, because they have been outlawed by every civilized race including the Centauri and because doing so would violate several treaties the Centauri have signed. He also expresses reservations about relying on the Shadows and is growing very weary of them as allies.

As the Narn fleet falls, along with it their last hope, G'Kar opens his eyes and puts out the last candle still lit.

* FailedASpotCheck: Played for laughs when Draal's hologram first appears to Sheridan. He starts upon the introduction and his theatrical spiel...and only realizes partway through that Sheridan's just come out of his shower and is dressed only in a bathrobe. An embarrassed Draal politely offers to come back after Sheridan's finished dressing. And then promptly resumes his monologue once Sheridan assures him it's no big deal.
* HopeSpot: With the conquest of Narn, Londo hopes that his people's aggressive expansion will finally be sated (and he won't have to call upon Morden and his associates again). Unfortunately, his final scene and reaction to the news from Centauri Prime makes it clear the annexation of Narn was just the beginning.

* LoopholeAbuse: As part of the terms of their surrender, all members of the Narn Kha'Ri are ordered to turn themselves over to the Centauri. G'Kar is the only member of the Kha'Ri not on Homeworld or in Narn space thanks to his posting and they know the authority and inspiration he can grant their people in the dark days ahead. So, they order him to go to Sheridan and to request sanctuary on Babylon 5. After all, ''Earth'' didn't sign the surrender agreement and while the Centauri are participants in the Babylon Project, they are ''not'' sponsors and have no jurisdiction there. Sheridan, who's absolutely disgusted by the bombardment of Narn, is more than happy to grant G'Kar sanctuary (with an equally disgusted Delenn backing him up).

* OutOfCharacterAlert: Centauri procedure is to not move on to the next target before their current objective is secure, so when they pull warships away from several active battlezones without explanation, G'Kar is convinced that they intend to attack the Narn homeworld.
** The rub of G'Sten's dismissal of this evidence is that even he (more or less) concedes it ''is'' odd...but there are also any number of alternate explanations (such as the Centauri encountering heavy Narn resistance).

The attack lasts for days, as the station is locked down with only armed security guards patrolling the corridors. What few details ISN are able to get describe a scene of horrific devastation on Narn, with hundreds of thousands dead and planetary infrastructure hanging by a thread. The other governments, including the normally-aloof Vorlon Empire, lodge official protests against the attack, but the Centauri are unswayed. G'Kar manages to get in touch with home, only to find that the Kha'Ri intend to surrender - it's either that, or it seems the Centauri really will go through with killing everyone on the surface of Narn. But before that, they have one last order for G'Kar - "the hardest one [we] have ever asked of you". Soon after, he slowly makes his way into Sheridan's office and requests sanctuary.

* ScrewTheRulesTheyreNotReal: Refa dismisses Londo's concern about the use of illegal [[WeaponsOfMassDestruction mass]] [[ColonyDrop drivers]] by calling the treaty banning said weapons "Ink on a page." He is proven correct; while protests are raised over the use of mass drivers, the protests do nothing to stop the Centauri atrocities.
Added DiffLines:
* VillainHasAPoint: Refa dismisses Londo's concerns about violating the treaty against using Mass Drivers, seeing the treaty as a powerless formality. He is sadly proven correct: the most anybody does about the Centauri using mass drives is protest.
