Unwilling to endure Earthforce attacks on civilians, Sheridan sends the White Star fleet to liberate Proxima 3.

[edit] Synopsis

Spoiler warning: Plot, character development, or ending details follow.

Earthforce ships have blockaded the colony of Proxima 3, which seceded from the Earth Alliance shortly before Babylon 5 declared independence. When the blockade threatens to starve out the residents of Proxima 3, Sheridan hurriedly asks the League of Non-Aligned Worlds to support Babylon 5 instead of Earth and then sets out to attack the flotilla of Earthforce destroyers at Proxima 3.

Londo tries to persuade G'Kar to sign a declaration announcing joint Narn-Centauri support of Sheridan's fight to win Earth back from President Clark's regime, but G'Kar withholds his cooperation until the last minute. When Sheridan's White Star fleet engages the Earthforce ships at the Battle of Proxima 3, the captain discovers that he may have more support than he expected, though a former supporter of his on the station has just decided to leave the fold.
