Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Sisko is joined by an old friend as he searches for the mysterious Orb of the Emissary, but the Pah-wraiths send a vision to distract him. On DS9, Kira mounts a blockade around a Bajoran moon after discovering the Romulans have armed their hospital there. Aboard the Rotarran, Worf leads a mission to destroy a Dominion shipyard in order to honor Jadzia.
Our Take
A busy hour that juggles three storylines and mostly keeps them all moving. Worf’s revenge mission for Jadzia gives the episode its emotional weight, while the Romulan standoff adds some real tension back on the station. Sisko’s prophet visions get a bit murky, but the payoff lands. Worth your time, even if the B-plot plotting feels slightly rushed.
