 Hold onto your souls! Apparently souls are real because one member of the maligned soul hunters is trying to steal a special soul on the station. Earthers believe in souls, the Minbari believe in souls, and there is literally a machine that takes souls, but no one seems to care about it.

An oddly meaningful Centauri agricultural colony is attacked by the oddly obviously-evil Narn, with an oddly relevant side quest regarding Earth forces and Raiders... and oddly, there is also an election.

The conspicuously small crew of the Babylon 5 uncovers a plot to start an intergalactic war between 2 of the 5 major empires (Vorlon, Narn, Centauri, Minbari, Earth). The conspicuously hands-on Earth Commander Jeff Sinclair is framed for the attempted murder of conspicuously traveling-by-himself Vorlon ambassador Kosh. The plot is thwarted with conspicuously scant use of can-probably-solve-everything ultra-telepath, Lyta Alexander.  Setting up the universe, establishing the characters, the inciting incidents, the attempted murder, a conspiracy to find the would-be killer, the trial, the actual investigation to find the would-be killer, a firefight, and 3 conspicuous references to sex all occur over the course of 1 day.
