Trivia:

The tribble to the K7 bartender's (Guy Raymond) right is in mid-fall behind Dr. Bashir and Odo, as it was a still-shot, re-filmed from the original 1967 stock footage and included to the 1996 C.G.I.

Goofs:

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When O'Brien incorrectly identifies the officer in the bar with Scott and Chekov as Kirk, Bashir asks why a captain is wearing lieutenant's insignia. However, in the vintage episode's credits, the character is credited as an ensign. Since Bashir has previously revealed a lack of familiarity with uniform standards of the earlier era, this might well be intentional.

re: Now if you call you self a Star Trex fan - this is a must see!

Another brilliant episode within the Star Trex saga. What a episode this one was.

Its one that you have to see if you are a true Star Trex FAN. Well written, believable, and enjoyable all at the time same with the cast from The Original Star Trex, and this present one - Deep Space Nine. Well worth watching, and a credit to all of the Star Trex series...

How they managed to merge the story and the characters between the original story line of "Tribbles" - with the Original Star Trex and together with a few of the staff of Deep Space Nine. I will never know.

I wondered who wrote the storyline for this excellent episode of Deep Space Nine? Wonderfully written.

Every one that likes Star Trex always votes for - "City on the Edge forever" - as the greatest Star Trex episode. Well take a look at this episode and always watch - "Let me be your last battlefield" episode within the Original Series of Star Trex - and you might change your mind.

Both are just as good as "City on the Edge forever".

10 out of 10 Brilliant.
