NPC: Dr. Christopher Spears

Played by Stephen McHattie

First Appearance: Season 3, Episode 5: The Man In-Between

There is little fact at the heart of the matter of the mysterious "Man In-Between" of Thenothk City. It was Enoch who, upon his rescue from Quadrant 93, recalled having used the name because it was the only one he recalled from the time before his abduction during the destruction of Babylon 3 in 2253.

Still, during their odyssey of 2265, Carlson, Enoch and Ta'Ren, were continuously referred to a mysterious "Man In-Between", a dangerous power broker operating from the gateway to Z'ha'dum, who might hold the answers to their questions.

When they reached Spears' lair at the Artasa Hotel in Thenothk City, the middle man admitted he had been the designer of their destiny and the architecht of their downfall, plucking them from a burning Babylon 3, submitting them to a mindwipe, and using them as agents of chaos in the dark devices of his Drakh masters.

Spears then proceeded to dismiss his victims unceremoniously, confident they would be crushed under the weight of the revelation. He was dead wrong.
