None of that was plausible. But to answer your question. Plausibility for me is only a major issue in a drama that relies on plot as the primary point of interest. Movies or theater that are more a study of the human condition simply don't need the same level of plausibility throughout to work. Is th ending to Romeo and Juliet plausible? How about the plots of Oedipus or Antigone? I think in the specific case of Babel the lack of plausibility lies in the connections between the various stories. To me the plausibility of those connectiuons were irrelevant. My take was that it was meant to be a counter to the theme of human disconnect that was the center of each story. I liked that choice as an interesting counter to the theme. I didn't even worry about the plausibility of it since I took it as a purely symbolic choice rather than an imortant plot point.
