Storyline

A science team of Trills comes to visit the station to do a test on creating artificial wormholes. The leader of the team is Dr. Lenara Kahn, a joined Trill. The former host of the Kahn symbiont was Nilani. She was the wife of Torias, one of Dax's former hosts. On Trill, it is strictly forbidden to re-associate with a past lover. The punishment is exile, meaning the symbiont will die. To avoid problems, Sisko offers Jadzia Dax to take extended leave. She denies and thinks she's up to the task. But when Jadzia and Lenara start working on the science project, they both seem to get along really well. While they try deny it at first, the romantic spark between them isn't gone.

Prejudice in Trill society
19 May 2010 | by (United Kingdom) – See all my reviews

When a group of scientists from Trill arrive on the station Dax is put in an awkward situation; one of the scientist's former hosts was married to one of Dax's former hosts. In Trill society it is strictly taboo for new hosts to get involved if the symbionts have been married before. When they meet it is clear that they still have strong feelings for each other and Jadzia considers starting a new relationship with former wife Lenara even though it would mean exile from Trill and thus no new host for Dax when Jadzia dies. While the episode is overwhelmingly concerned with Trill prejudice about new hosts getting involved with spouses of former hosts there is some excitement when the experiment goes slightly wrong and Jadzia must attempt to save Lenara.

While the episode was ostensibly about Trill prejudices they were clearly a metaphor for our own prejudices about other peoples choice in partners. This is done well by showing Jadzia in a relationship with another woman where nobody thinks anything about the fact that they are both women, clearly the creators wanted to show that this was perfectly natural and didn't need commenting on; now that seems fairly obvious but when this was new the idea of having two women sharing a passionate kiss was rather radical. Terry Farrell as Jadzia and Susanna Thompson as Lenara did a great jobs in the lead roles.
