There's always a scene with Ramsey turfing out rotten/freezer-burned food and screaming.

If only someone had brought Kanye, post-Katrina.

Burl, you are a national treasure.

Everyone can enjoy that!

Why was she brought along on the rigid airship? Because Malory insists on using her underlings as servants, as usual.

Huh, I never got the idea that the episode wanted us to think Sisko is genuinely going bad. I mean, he explicitly says that he's playing a villainous role in a narrative before he does anything, and the explicit goal is to get you-know-who to give himself up.

Remata'klan is awesome and noble, but Ometa'klan is so eerily calm and scary.

Oh, so that's why you resigned — because it was cutting into your AV Club commenting time.

Mass displacement is still considered a pretty horrible thing to do, and if Sisko had gone ahead with his threat, the entire raison d'etre of the Maquis would be destroyed. I don't think it's meaningless at all. ("For The Uniform" is one of my favorite episodes, actually.)

We do?

Yes, I love Lwaxana too. Also Majel Barrett was really hot.

"Things change… but not this" is one of my favorite lines from "For The Cause", actually.

Kes isn't a human.

There are no bras in the future, either.

@LurkyMcLurkerson:disqus I unashamedly love "Take Me Out To The Holosuite" and "Badda Bing Badda Bang". They are fantastic episodes that are very thoroughly DS9 in style and outlook.

It is a guilty pleasure because it is shitty.

I think S7's Mirror episode is better than this one because it pulls out all the stops and just makes it as ridiculous as possible, and doesn't try to make the stakes any higher than "will the main cast member be horribly murdered".

Kirk gives Sisko the bedroom eyes because in the episode that reaction was taken from ("Mirror, Mirror") he was talking to the real universe version of a lady who had tried to sexx on him in the mirror universe.

@avclub-f7b8cee00172e6b5d95f347eef898419:disqus Nope, the other one.

Also, Clarence Williams III as the best Jem'Hadar in the entire series. There's some pretty decent competition, too.
