Interrogator (Babylon 5)

"Besides we don't want coperation. We want conversion. We want repentance"

- The interrogator on what he wants from Sheridan. The Interrogator was a minor villain in the Babylon 5 episode Between the Darkness and the Light.

He was portrayed by Bruce Gray, who had portrayed Surak in Star Trek: Enterprise.

This interrogator was loyal to Morgan Clark. He was one of the torturers at Fort Walker that worked over John Sheridan after the first torturer William had failed to break Sheridan.

Over the course of several days this individual also did his best to break Sheridan. Seeing that threats and inflicting physical pain weren't effective on Sheridan, he decided to use drugs and psychological drugs to break Sheridan and get him to reveal what he knew.

The drugs caused Sheridan to hallucinate that he was back on B5 and that the interrogator was B5 CMO Dr. Stephen Franklin. He tried to draw out Sheridan and trick him into revealing what he knew about the Martian resistance, but Sheridan held fast and refused to divulge. Frustrated with the lack of progress the interrogator's assistant suggested threatening Sheridan's father, but the interrogator vetoed the idea. He told her to increase the dosage, and that they would come back later after the drugs had a chance to take effect.

A short time later Sheridan was rescued by Michael Garibaldi, Doctor Franklin, and Lyta Alexander. In the subsequent days as Sheridan and his allies returned to Earth Clark's government fell when Clark committed suicide to avoid arrest. Like William, if this interrogator was also made to face justice, it has not been revealed.
