Comes the Inquisitor
Season 2, Episode 43
DELENN: Lennier said you were calling for me.
KOSH: Yes.
DELENN: Is there something wrong?
KOSH: You, perhaps. We have sent for an inquisitor.
DELENN: An inquisitor? Why?
KOSH: To be sure about you. You will submit to his authority.
DELENN: How will I know who it is?
KOSH: You will know. If you survive.
Comments:
- Some of my friends said that Kosh's statement is nonsensical, because quite obviously the inquisitor does not kill Delenn at their first meeting, so naturally she will recognize him. The answer is of course that while Delenn's question was how she would recognize the inquisitor, Kosh understood and answered it literally. As it happens, Delenn does indeed know who he is in the end. Even though Sebastian's true identity is of no significance to her (it's just another "name"), she gets to know him in the sense that his question -- who are you? -- is intended.
