    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Nana Visitor hated the Intendant's rubber figure-hugging outfit. "It didn't breathe at all" claims Visitor, and between takes she had to stand in front of a large fan to prevent her from sweating, as sweat tended to discolor the outfit.
    • Goofs
      Sisko refers to alternate-universe Jadzia as "Dax" but the best logic holds that alternate-universe Jadzia was not joined. It was most likely a pretty careless mistake by the writers, starting to treat "Dax" like just her last name rather than an indication of joined status.
    • Quotes

      Commander Sisko: Where are we?

      Smiley O'Brien: I guess you could say we just stepped through the looking glass.

    Mirror, Mirror, Mirror, etc.

    This is another venture into the parallel universe. Sisko is taken there by the O'Brien counterpart from the other dimension. He meets up with the copy of his wife (who died in the very first episode). They hit it off, but she is a scientist that is working on a very destructive device and it is Sisko's job to put a stop to her research. All in all, it works reasonably well.
