The Goliath investigates a series of jump gates that apparently lead nowhere. Back on B5, Carlson is reunited with a long-time friend, Admiral Lance Freely, which returns from a top-secret exploration mission. Meanwhile, Ta'Ren's resources are solicitated by the Interstellar Alliance intelligence to investgate the possibility of fraud in the formation of the next drazi government. As well, he signs ludicrous shipping contracts with a private party and the Vree government and is mind-rapped by the same narn that attacked him earlier this season. For no apparent reason. Ta'Ren is also challenged by a centauri martial artist demanding a rematch to a bout his school lost to Ta'Ren's in a cultural exhange fight thirty years before, which disgraced the centauri school. During the fight, it is discovered that Jonathan De Loisier is sponsoring the centauri's revenge in an attempt to reclaim his property. Carlson, who as let go of his injection of sleepers, telepathically scans Freely at his request adn discovers that Freely is the one who built the jump gates to nowhere and is responsible for the scuttling of his ship with all-hands aboard. The gates lead to the Vorlon homeworld, where the old ones servitors claim Freely's life, and are apparently building up.

Season 1, Episode 4: Signs of the Times
By Sean K. Campbell
While investigating the covert government financing of a rival drazi shipping firm, Ta'Ren is infected with a bio-virus apparently engineered specifically for him. Carlson and Enoch investigate to discover it is drazi in origin and that Ta'Ren has little time to live. On a deadline, the remaining Goliath crewmembers cooperate with Martar's intelligence department to plan a strategic raid on Drivak shipping's mainframe on Zhabar, and discover the evidence in time to save Ta'Ren and prove the drazi's guilt.
