Story: Sheridan's interrogation begins, conducted by a man
named William who has the options to call in guards,
inflict pain through Narn pain-givers Sheridan is forced
to wear, or otherwise use whatever means are necessary to
break the captain and force a confession that his
secession of Babylon 5 from
Earth was committed under alien influence. William begins
to disorient Sheridan's concepts of time and truth and
trust...or perhaps not. After being fed a poisoned
sandwich and vague information about his father, Sheridan
resists William's psychological attacks, and persuades a
Drazi hostage not to assist the interrogator even if it
almost certainly signs the Drazi's death sentence...or
perhaps not. William wants Sheridan to put his signature
on the confession, but when Sheridan resists the state's
attempts to break him, he finds out that the entire
interrogation could be nothing more than a maddening show
designed to drive him out of his mind.
