And what a warm body…

Well-said! I also kind of got the feeling that Quark's problem with Ishka making profit wasn't so much that it went against cultural norms, but that he would be the one who would be punished for her "transgressions." He's the one who has Brunt, FCA breathing down his neck through all this, after all. I kind of get the…

"The Adversary" was always one of my favorite episodes back in the day, and it also foreshadows some awesome stuff to come in the episodes "In Purgatory's Shadow" and "By Inferno's Light."
Side note: The DS9 writers really had a knack for episode titles, didn't they? I mean, yeah, some of them are fairly generic, but…

While Odo is, and always will be lawful to a fault, I think that this tenet of democracy is obvious to anyone who has ever voted for the losing candidate in an election. Hell, I voted for Kerry and Gore, so I know the feeling first-hand.

Well-played, as always, RJS. Well-played.

O'Brien: "I used to hate you, and now…Now I don't. I. Don't. Hate you. There. I said it." Such a great delivery.

@avclub-04d524031f29c89d78cae864bd6f0de7:disqus Yeah, plus you gotta' figure that Starfleet sees rescuing Odo as potentially the salvage of an intelligence asset that cannot be lost for the following reasons: 1) Odo might know something about the Founders. They don't know that he doesn't know anything, but he can be…

Most definitely! This was something that DS9 would do at least once a season, with these little palate-cleanser episodes that took the foot off the throttle for a bit and just let the characters breathe and let us get to know them.

@avclub-04d524031f29c89d78cae864bd6f0de7:disqus Maybe I'm just a Garak-fanboy, but I can't think of anyone who wouldn't appreciate a good tailor.

I think it was Romulan military, since destroying the wormhole doesn't quite have the vision one would associate with the Tal'Shiar or the Obsidian Order. I don't have any real evidence for this, since we never really get a full explanation, but that would be my guess.
