Stardate: 50712.5 A Cardassian dissident opposed to the Cardassian/Dominion alliance asks Kira to help him so that he may reveal his secrets to use against his enemies as is customary in his culture. Kira must overcome painful memories of her own father's death, as well as the Cardassian's own war crimes, before she can face him and gain the information

Oh dear - another dull one. This week hasn't really been that good overall, has it? (Doctor Bashir, I Presume aside).

Still, at least this episode does feature the return of Dukat and Weyoun (the Fifth :)), which brightens up the very dull story about Kira and her 'father' (how convenient that he's not guilty just for being a Cardassian, unlike they guy in 'The Darkness and the Light' :rolleyes:)

:lol:

So you liked this one then Phillip ;)

Personally (big softie that I am) I like this one. Kira is shown to have a nice few character flaws, mostly understandable but for the most part fairly unpleasant. Her lack of patience with cardassian guy (god I'm crap with names), and subsequent poor treatment off, which arose from her fear of watching a loved one die was well portrayed imo and there didn't seem to me to be too great an effort to make you side with Kira, rather the opposite in fact :)

Like an old Nova before being bought by a 17 year old, this one is spoiler free :ph43r:

And the moral of this story is "Don't become friends (or more) with Kira, because you'll end up dying in some unpleasant way or other" :lol:

Really, she hasn't got a very good track record, has she? :lol:

Quite enjoyed it, particularly the Dukat/Weyoun scenes :)
