Quotes:
Chief Miles Edward O'Brien: When we were growing up they used to tell us humanity had evolved, that mankind had outgrown hate and rage. When it came down to it, when I had the chance to show that no matter what anyone did to me I was still an evolved human being, I failed. I repaid kindness with blood. I was no better than an animal! moreFAQ

Have always loved Colm Meaney in everything he does. Was more than delighted to see him on the bridge of Next Generation's Enterprise in its pilot. His character slowly developed, got a name and even got married and later transferred to Deep Space 9. This particular episode shows us a different side to O'Brien. His mental anguish at being imprisoned for over 20 years is excellent. This is one seriously overlooked Irish actor. With all this focus on other hotshot Irish actors this guy is superb. When Miles arrives home his family rally to help him as do his friends. But, the damage to his psyche is evident and his slow rehabilitation is sad to watch but compelling viewing. Nice to see Colm stuck with Trek even when his movie career was in the running
