After arranging for the arrest of Sheridan's father, Garibaldi urges his former commander to come to Mars to arrange a rescue operation, and must decide whether or not to betray Sheridan to Clark's forces. Meanwhile, Franklin and Lyta arrive on Mars with their cargo of frozen telepaths.

Garibaldi desperately tries to convince Lyta and Franklin that his recent behavior was caused by Bester as they organize a rescue for Sheridan. Meanwhile, Ivanova gets word that a trap has been set at the fleets' next rendezvous point by a group of completely new advanced-technology destroyers.
