简介: The four vampires of the residence gather to discuss what they should do with Guillermo, who killed the Vampire Council. Laszlo is happy that they're fine, but Nadia isn't so sure. She figures that Guillermo is Nandor's responsibility, but he points out that Guillermo did it to save them. Colin doesn't care, and Nadia and the Doll insist that they have to kill Guillermo. Nandor reminds them that they're still in danger, and the Council will send more assassins and only Guillermo can protect them. Nandor figures that they should slumber on it. Guillermo's bell rings from the basement, and they go down to check on Guillermo. It's been a month since they imprisoned him and haven't decided Guillermo's fate, and they go to Guillermo's cell. Guillermo says that his bathroom bucket is empty. Colin offers to empty it so he can see if Guillermo is sending out secret messages. Nadia throws raw chicken at Guillermo so he can eat, and Guillermo says that he wouldn't kill them. He reminds that he saved their lives, and he asks if they've just procrastinating without him. Colin uses a cattle prod and shocks himself, and Guillermo yells that he just wants to protect them Once the vampires leave, Guillermo talks to the camera crew and admits that there's good wifi in the basement. He shows them around his cell, and figures the vampires can't do anything without him. He shows that he can get out, and explains that he's been sneaking out while his captors slumber. Guillermo goes upstairs and keeps the house functioning, and the vampires don't notice because they think it happens automatically. Guillermo then goes to a diner to eat, and admits that he's co-dependent. Guillermo returns to his cell before everyone wakes up, and listens as the vampires discuss his fate. When they hear him move, Guillermo returns to his cell and locks himself up. Nandor comes down and asks how his familiar is holding out, and admits that it's likely they'll kill Guillermo. The familiar says that he's a soldier and lives by the code of the warrior. Nandor agrees and brings more raw chicken for Guillermo. The vampire then goes, turning the lights on. Guillermo has put up security camera to keep an eye on the vampires, and sees bats circling the house. Colin reports that Guillermo isn't sending out secret messages but will continue to check Guillermo's bucket. A vampire enters the room as mist. Guillermo runs in and kills it. The female vampire, the Guide, survives, and says that she isn't there to kill anyone. She congratulates Guillermo on being a vampire-hunter, and says that they hadn't heard from them but sent 87 ravens as messengers. They also tried to use the telephone, but it's Guillermo's job to answer the phone and he was locked up. The Guide says that the Supreme Worldwide Vampiric Council has sent her to show them a VCR with their message. After they chain up Guillermo, the Guide plays the tape. The Head of the Council applauds them for eliminating 70% of the most powerful vampires in the Tri-State area. The Head reminds them that the law is that vampires do not kill vampires. The Council figures the four vampires know how to get things done, so they've been appointed the leaders of the Eastern Seaboard Vampiric Council. The Council will be monitoring them. The Guide tells the vampire that she has assisted every Council since 1769, and she's honored to assist them. The next night, she'll take them to the Council building. Colin brings Guillermo to them, and Nandor says that their final decision about Guillermo is that they won't kill him for now. They've decided to make Guillermo a fully-fledged member of the team, but not a vampire. Instead they're going to make him a vampires' bodyguard. Guillermo takes it rather than die, and the vampires accept Guillermo's acceptance. Before the vampires remove the chains from Guillermo, they use four-way hypnosis on him and Laszlo warns that the odds of Guillermo being mentally stable afterward are slim. Guillermo agrees, and they try to hypnotize him. Guillermo tells the film crew that after years of the vampires hypnotizing him, he's immune to vampiric hypnosis. He just lets them think they can hypnotize him. The vampires hypnotize Guillermo to never harm them, and he plays along when he comes out of his "trance". The next night, the Guide takes the group to the local Council building and shows them around. Wraith Dancers come in and give the vampires their Council Robes, and asks which one will assume the Master's Throne. The Guide explains that only one of them can be Supreme Leader. Everybody but Laszlo argues who should be the Supreme Leader.by:www.tuikan.cc
简介: 《'Allo 'Allo》是BBC在1980年代到90年代期间拍摄的一套著名电视喜剧系列片,从1982年到1992年在BBC电视台播放,共85集。 这部电视剧的背景是二战期间纳粹德国占领下的一个法国小村庄上,围绕着一家小餐馆写的故事。中心人物是咖啡馆老板René Artois。纳粹占领军抢劫了村子里所有的有价值的艺术品。 其中包括一幅号称是名家范•克洛普的油画《The Fallen Madonna with the Big Boobies》。当地德军指挥官决定把这幅画归为己有,强迫Rene把画藏在他的咖啡馆里。可是,纳粹德国领袖希特勒也想得到这幅画,派了一个盖世太保军官前去寻找这幅画,而这个盖世太保也想自己猫腻这幅画。与此同时,出现了若干这幅油画的赝品。于是,一场场好戏和闹剧就这样展开了。 这部电视剧的另一条主线是两个被迫降落在该地的英国飞行员躲在René的咖啡馆里。当地全女性法国抵抗组织设法把这两位英国飞行员安全送回英国。但是,计划屡屡出漏子,也闹出了不少笑话。 似乎这一切还不够乱,René是个花心男人。跟咖啡馆里的两个女招待私下偷情,千方百计要瞒过自己的老婆。锦上添花,或雪上加霜的是,抵抗组织的女首领似乎爱上了René!另外,一个有点同性恋倾向的德国军官也看上了这位咖啡馆老板,总是向他暗送秋波。 《'Allo 'Allo》的情节错综复杂,笑料百出,而该剧最精彩的因素之一是它的语言。 在这部电视剧里,不仅有法国人、德国人、英国人,另外还有意大利人。如何解决语言问题呢?电视剧的制作人想出了绝妙的方法 – 所有角色都说英语,但是都带上浓重的本国口音。这些不同的角色,说着不同口音的英语,使得整出剧更加令人发笑和多姿多彩。
简介: The Psi Corps and President Clark, whose government has discovered Shadow vessels buried in Earth's solar system, begin to harness the vessels' advanced technology. The Clark administration continues to become increasingly xenophobic and totalitarian, and uses a military incident as an excuse to declare martial law. This triggers a war of independence on Mars, which had long had a strained political relationship with Earth. Babylon 5 also declares independence from Earth, along with several other outlying Earth Alliance colonies. In response, the Earth Alliance attempts to retake Babylon 5 by force, but with the aid of the Minbari, who have allied with the station against the growing Shadow threat, the attack is repelled. Becoming concerned over the Shadows' growing influence amongst his people, Centauri ambassador Londo Mollari attempts to sever ties with them. Mr. Morden, the Shadows' human representative, tricks him into restoring the partnership by engineering the murder of Mollari's mistress while putting the blame on a rival Centauri House. Open warfare breaks out between the Shadows and the alliance led by Babylon 5 and the Minbari. It is learned that genetic manipulation by the Vorlons is the source of human telepathy, as it is later discovered that Shadow ships are vulnerable to telepathic attacks. Displeased at the Vorlons' lack of direct action against the Shadows, Captain John Sheridan browbeats Vorlon ambassador Kosh Naranek into launching an attack against their mutual enemy. Kosh's deeds lead to his subsequent assassination by the Shadows. Former station commander Jeffrey Sinclair returns to Babylon 5 to enlist the aid of Captain Sheridan, Delenn, Ivanova and Marcus in stealing the Babylon 4 space station and sending it 1,000 years back in time to use it as a base of operations against the Shadows in the previous Minbari-Shadow war. Undergoing the same transformation as Delenn at the end of Season 1, Sinclair transforms into a Minbari and is subsequently revealed to be the actual Valen of Minbari legend, rather than a reincarnation. Spurred by the reappearance of his assumed-dead wife (who now works for the Shadows), Sheridan travels to Z'ha'dum, the Shadow homeworld, in an attempt by them to recruit him. However he instead destroys their largest city in a kamikaze nuclear attack, and is last seen jumping into a miles-deep pit to escape the explosion. Garibaldi, during a fight with Shadow vessels, goes missing.
简介: In 2261, the Vorlons join the Shadow War, but their tactics become a concern for the alliance when the Vorlons begin destroying entire planets which they deem to have been "influenced" by the Shadows. Disturbed by this turn of events, Babylon 5 recruits several other powerful and ancient races (the First Ones) to their cause, against both the Shadows and the Vorlons. Captain John Sheridan returns to the station after escaping from Z'ha'dum, but at a price: barring illness or injury, he has only 20 years left to live. He is accompanied by a mysterious alien named Lorien who claims to be the oldest sentient being in the galaxy. Hours before Sheridan's return, Garibaldi is rescued and returned to the station, in rather dubious circumstances. He is markedly more paranoid and suspicious of other alien races and of Sheridan than he was before. Centauri Emperor Cartagia forges a relationship with the Shadows. Londo Mollari engineers the assassination of Cartagia and repudiates his agreement with the Shadows. Londo kills Mr. Morden and destroys the Shadow vessels based on the Centauri homeworld, in an attempt to save his planet from destruction by the Vorlons. Aided by the other ancient races, and several younger ones, Sheridan lures both the Vorlons and the Shadows into an immense battle, during which the Vorlons and Shadows reveal that they have been left as guardians of the younger races, but due to philosophical differences, ended up using them as pawns in their endless wars throughout the ages. The younger races reject their continued interference, and the Vorlons and Shadows, along with the remaining First Ones, agree to depart the galaxy forever. After the Shadows are defeated Garibaldi leaves his post as security chief and works on his own as a "provider of information". He begins working for one William Edgars, a Mars Tycoon, who is married to Garibaldi's former love. While he works ever closer with Edgars, he becomes increasingly aggressive towards Sheridan and eventually leaves Babylon 5. Minbar is gripped by a brief civil war between the Warrior and Religious castes. Delenn secretly meets with Neroon of the Warrior caste and convinces him that neither side can be allowed to win. She tells him that she will undergo a ritual wherein she will be willing to sacrifice herself, but will stop the ritual before she actually dies. When Neroon sees that she actually intends to go through the entire ritual, he rescues her and sacrifices himself instead, declaring that, although he was born Warrior, in his heart he is Religious. As part of the ongoing conflict between Earth and Babylon 5, Garibaldi eventually betrays Sheridan and arranges his capture in order to gain Edgars' trust and learn his plans. Garibaldi later learns that Edgars created a virus that is dangerous to only telepaths. It is then revealed, that Garibaldi was actually abducted by the Psi-Corps at the end of Season 3 and re-programmed by Bester to provide information to him at the right time. Bester releases Garibaldi of his programming, and allows him to remember everything he has done since being kidnapped. Edgars is killed and his wife disappears, but is reunited with Garibaldi after the end of the war. Garibaldi helps free Sheridan and return him to the campaign to free Earth. An alliance led by Babylon 5 frees Earth from totalitarian rule by President Clark in a short but bloody war. This culminates in Clark's suicide and the restoration of democratic government. Mars is granted full independence, and Sheridan agrees to resign his commission. The League of Non-Aligned Worlds is dissolved and reformed into the Interstellar Alliance, with Sheridan elected as its first President and continuing his command of the Rangers, who are to act as a galactic equivalent of United Nations peacekeepers. In the season finale, the events of 100, 500, 1000, and one million years into the future are shown, depicting Babylon 5's lasting influence throughout history. Amongst the events shown are the political aftermath of the 2261 civil war, a subsequent nuclear war on Earth involving a new totalitarian government in the year AD 2762, the resulting fall of Earth into a pre-industrial society, the loss and restoration of humanity's knowledge of space travel, and the final evolution of mankind into energy beings similar to the Vorlons, after which Earth's sun goes nova.
简介: In 2262, Earthforce Captain Elizabeth Lochley is appointed to command Babylon 5. The station grows in its role as a sanctuary for rogue telepaths running from the Psi Corps, resulting in conflict. G'Kar, former Narn ambassador to Babylon 5, becomes unwillingly a spiritual icon after a book is published that he wrote while incarcerated during the Narn-Centauri War. The Drakh, former allies of the Shadows who remained in the galaxy, take control of Regent Virini on Centauri Prime through a parasitic creature called a Keeper, then incite a war between the Centauri and the Interstellar Alliance, in order to isolate the Centauri from the Alliance and gain a malleable homeworld for themselves. Centauri Prime is devastated by Narn and Drazi warships and Londo Mollari becomes emperor, accepting a Drakh Keeper under threat of the complete nuclear destruction of the planet. (Portions of the end of his reign are seen in various prescient visions throughout the series; they show Mollari and former nemesis (and later friend) G'Kar sixteen years in the future dying at each other's throats, seemingly out of their grudge. It is gradually revealed that there was a much more friendly subtext, with Mollari having become a slave to the drakh rule and being tired of life; his Drakh Keeper awakens and strangles G'Kar in return. Vir Cotto, Mollari's loyal and more moral aide, succeeds him as emperor, free of Drakh influence. Sheridan and Delenn marry and move to Minbar, along with the headquarters of the Interstellar Alliance. G'Kar leaves Babylon 5 to escape his unwanted fame and explore the rim. Garibaldi also marries and settles down on Mars. Most of the other main characters leave B5. Nineteen years later on the verge of death, Sheridan takes a final trip to the obsolete Babylon 5 station before its decommissioning. Sheridan apparently dies but is claimed by the First Ones, who invite him to join them on a journey beyond the rim of the galaxy. Babylon 5 station is destroyed in a demolition shortly after Sheridan's departure, its existence no longer necessary as the Alliance has taken over its diplomatic purposes. This final episode features a cameo by Straczynski as the technician who switches off the lights before Babylon 5 is demolished.
简介: At the beginning of 2259, Captain John Sheridan replaces Sinclair as the military governor of the station. He and the command staff learn that the death of President Santiago was actually an assassination masterminded by Vice President Clark (who assumed the Presidency upon Santiago's death). A conflict develops between the Babylon 5 command staff and the Psi Corps, an increasingly autocratic organization which oversees and controls the lives of human telepaths. Commander Ivanova, the second-in-command of the station, is secretly a latent telepath who has illicitly avoided registering with the Psi Corps. The Shadows, an ancient and extremely powerful race who have recently emerged from hibernation, are revealed to be the cause of a variety of mysterious and disturbing events, including the attack on the Narn outpost at the end of 2258. Centauri Ambassador Londo Mollari unknowingly enlists their aid through his association with the mysterious Mr. Morden in the ongoing conflict with the Narn. The elderly and ailing Centauri emperor, long an advocate of reconciliation with the Narn, dies suddenly while visiting Babylon 5. A number of conspirators, including Londo Mollari and Refa, take control of the Centauri government by assassinating their opponents and placing the late emperor's unstable nephew on the throne. Their first act is to start open aggression against the Narn. After a full-scale war breaks out, the Centauri eventually conquer Narn in a brutal attack involving mass drivers, outlawed weapons of mass destruction. Towards the end of the year, the Clark administration begins to show increasingly totalitarian characteristics, clamping down on dissent and restricting freedom of speech. The Vorlons are revealed to be the basis of legends about angels on various worlds, including Earth, and are the ancient enemies of the Shadows. They enlist the aid of Sheridan and the Babylon 5 command staff in the struggle against the Shadows.
