Oh, was it ever. And I am not being fanciful about her humanoid hoo-ha — there is literally a squirmy scene after they have sex where they basically say to each other "what a delightful and erotic novelty your genitals were!"

It's an episode I enjoy, and go back to sometimes — I just don't think it holds up to a lot of scrutiny… After the reaction I got to mentioning that I don't hate Without Sin above, I felt like paying more heed to my critical side :) So maybe I was too harsh. I don't think it's a BAD episode, but I don't think it…

Heart of Stone is one of those episodes that I instinctually remember as being a slog, but I guess isn't actually that bad when I really think about it…

Er, well… yeah. It sort of has its moments, and it's somewhat interesting for offering some more of Trek's conception of Earth history in between now and the show, but it's pretty damn silly.

Some Memory Alpha lookups reveal that it is indeed canon, but based on very little. In "For The Cause", Dukat tells Ziyal that Garak had his father tortured and killed. MA also says that at one point Dukat says trusting Garak was his father's only flaw — but doesn't mention which episode (though that line does indeed…
