Mollari had sent Vir on his errand because he's considered too honest to do anything subversive. Cotto has obtained an elaborately-decorated poisoning needle designed for traceless assassination; for anyone not in the know, a successful injection will look like the emperor succumbed to a dual heart attack. But due to its delicate nature (to ensure its tracelessness), it has to be administered in an exacting way. It's supposed to act too quickly for the victim to call out, but Mollari is suspicious of this. He and Cotto each wonder how much Cartagia might get out but then realize the time is at hand. They leave to join the Emperor. </p><p data-rte-fromparser="true" data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">As planned, G'Kar is paraded around to humiliate him and his people. He is then brought before the throne room for his final judgment. To Mollari's chagrin, Cartagia reveals that he'd ordered G'Kar's bonds redone. Despite this, through, G'Kar proceeds to strain against his kirrilium chains, and to everyone's astonishment, breaks free anyway! A riot ensues in the throne room, allowing Mollari to draw Cartagia away as planned. Away from the chaos, Cartagia vents and fumes, in the process inadvertently striking Mollari and making him drop the needle, but as he condemns Mollari to burn with Centauri Prime, he turns...in time for Cotto to stab him with the needle! Cotto quickly hides the needle, and Mollari savvily alerts arriving guards to find a doctor. </p><p /> <!-- Saved in parser cache with key babylon5:rte-parser-cache:325 --> Loading editor Below are some commonly used wiki markup codes.
