Sun, 27 September 2009 The Gamma Quadrant has a to pick sides when there is a mutiny conspiracy on DS9 (we chose Kira's side). We learn about clock making, feminine wiles, and how not to be an eavesdropper. Comments[4] |
This is one of my very favorite episodes of DS9.
Thank you for spending almost two minutes on Sisko spitting and shouting NEVER!
Thank you for reminding me that Kira was sexy!
Thank you for reminding me how very awesome this thing was.
Thank you Ryan for still rocking it crazy awesome! I can always count on you to see exactly what's up --you're the Gamma Quadrant action figure most desired!
Thank you Seth for getting to the bottom of the case with how Gamma Quadrant can be done on Zune (your suggestion worked).
Thank you Valerie the bizzare (neck brace not futuristic??? wha????).
The three of you are great. One foils the other. The other teases who's next. Everyone gets it.
Also, bonus episode was awesome. Star Trek: The Ripoff. I laughed til I coughed (for real).
Keep up the real work!

Don't mean to eat up two comments, but I just wanted to add that I always believed that Dax acted as strange as she did because she rocks TWO MINDS and the virus couldn't really get a handle on her . . . so she just defaulted to something in the middle and vulnerable to suggestion.
Another reason I love it.
Biggest reason I love it: IT'S A CLOCK!

Wow! You guys don't miss much, but this time you overlooked something huge. The virus was actually causing the crew to reenact a chapter from the French Revolution. It's been a few years since I last viewed the episode and much longer since I studied French history, so I can't identify all the parallels, but Sisko was definitely Louis XVI, the French king who was more interested in tinkering with clocks than governing and whose officials tried to sneak him out of the country to raise an army to retake France from the revolutionaries. Jadzia was acting strangely, because she was playing the part of Marie Antoinette.

Awesome indeed, Hey Star Trek! So is this podcast...as I actually believe I enjoyed this episode more after listening to Valerie, Seth, and Ryan!
Yep...all the actors nailed it! An unrestrained joy to watch...all the characters wearing their masks of drama...though each mask reflecting and enhancing an important aspect of their subconscious. (As well as foreshadowing a bit of their alternate universe selves.) And yes, Ryan...Avery Brooks is the man!!
It certainly was a risk to pull this episode out in Season 1. But...despite the anti-climactic ending...it worked for me...then and now.
