    • Trivia
      Sisko's passionate speech to Admiral Ross about the beauties of Bajor indicates the first time that he has openly revealed his love for the planet.

      On the Defiant, Bashir goes to the replicator to get himself and Dax each a raktajino. But the replicator makes Cardassian computer sounds (like on the station), and not Starfleet sounds.
    • Quotes

      Rom: You've got to finish what I started. The fate of the entire Alpha Quadrant rests in your hands. Billions and billions of people are counting on you.

      Quark: Boy, are they gonna be disappointed.

      Rom: Brother... You can do this. You have to do this. You will do this!

      Quark: What happens if I get caught?

      Rom: Then we'll die together - side by side, heads held high, knowing we did our best.

      Leeta: Oh Rom!

      Quark: But I don't want to die.

      Rom: If that's what's written... then that's what's written.

    Rom Is the Hero, But
    As Gul Dukat continues to try to run things, the team needs to figure a way to keep the bad guys from removing the mines from the wormhole. A plan is hatched and Rom, using his engineering skills, goes to keep the dominion from blowing them up and allowing the Jem'Hadar from going in and taking over the Alpha Quadrant. Unfortunately, Odo plays a negative part in all this.
