Storyline

Plot Summary

Life seems to be slowly becoming normal on the station. Bashir tries to make advances to Dax, Jake makes friends with Nog and chief O'Brien is having an argument with his wife Keiko. As a botanist she feels useless on the station and doesn't think the environment is good enough for their daughter Molly growing up. Meanwhile Odo encounters a familiar face on the Promenade: the Bajoran smuggler Ibudan. He's considered a hero by the Bajorans, but Odo thinks differently. He saw him let a child die because the parents couldn't afford the medicine and when Ibudan killed a Cardassian he turned him in. When Ibudan is murdered during a massage in the holodeck, all evidence points to Odo. Written by Arnoud Tiele (imdb@tiele.nl)

Edit
Trivia This was the first regular episode of the series to be made, but Past Prologue (1993) was chosen to be broadcast first. This explains why several firsts occur in this episode, such as O'Brien's wife and child arriving at the station and Keiko establishing the school, Jake and Nog meeting and becoming friends, Rom being introduced by name as Quark's brother, and Jadzia explaining right away to Bashir why Trills aren't interested in romance. It also explains why some details of the series had not been completely worked out yet (as in the immediately preceding pilot), such as Max Grodénchik's Rom lacking his familiar voice and mannerisms (and mispronunciation of "human"), Rene Auberjonois' Odo lacking the trademark gravelly low voice, the Bajorans not wearing their trademark earrings, and the people referred to as "Bajora".

Goofs In this, his first appearance on the series after the pilot, Aron Eisenberg's (Nog) opening credit is misspelled as "Aron Eisenerg". The typo is fixed in some later releases. See more »

Quotes Quark: [about Odo] He's an ill-tempered, overbearing, cross-patch. But he was no Cardassian collaborator, and he's no killer.
Zayra: I can't believe you're defending him, Quark. You're his worst enemy.
Quark: Guess that's the closest thing he has in this world to a friend.
