Trivia
This episode came about because the writers felt that since the six-episode arc and "Waltz" they had allowed the character of Dukat to slip too much into the background.

Goofs
Empoc Nor is always shown as if it's tipped off its axis, but there is no up or down in space. It was probably done to show it wasn't Deep Space 9.

Quotes
Odo: I have a feeling it must be very comforting to believe in something more powerful than yourself.

Dukat and the Pah-Wrath cult.

After working for the Pah-Wrath, Dukat become the leader of a cult related to this evil spirits from Bajor.

We see Dukat first as another Gul, then we see more of how he was afected by the events of Klingon invasion and then the Dominion advance in the Alpha Quadrant, breaking the Cardassian Empire. The series show us how he was during the ocupation and how dastardly he was, finally we see how he become a religious leader after lost his mind.

Obviously Dukat is still an awful person and shame on you if you doubt for a minute.

This episode can remind to a real sect, like the tragedy of Jonestown.

I don't understand why this episode have so low rates, is a fantastic way to remember how manipulative can be the faith, a topic who was show in the series in past seasons.
