Ties of Blood and Water

Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Takeny Ghemor, who considers Kira to be his daughter, arrives on DS9 and confesses that is dying. Ghemor wishes to commence the Shri-tal with Kira, a Cardassian ritual in which a dying person reveals their closest secrets to the rest of the family. But the experience dredges up Kira’s memories of her own father, who suffered a fatal injury during the Occupation of Bajor.

Our Take

Middle-of-the-road. Watchable, but you’ll forget the details by next episode.
