We know that Slade has a camera in Thea's bedroom, so you don't know for certain that they've only met briefly one time.

This episode had a second fault.

I assume that was part of the disguise.
The male cops would never identify Sara in a line up, unless push-up bras were involved.

There is at least one response (two days ago) that thinks the WSJ is exaggerating the dealings and ignoring how technology actually works. (Imagine that.)

"You discover that your properties were built on the town's cemetery, but only the tombstones were moved. Pay $20 for a creepy psychic woman to recover your daughter from the TV. All your houses disappear from the board. You must pay an opponent to stay at their hotel."

Or their '80s Heather Thomas in a jacuzzi poster.

Considering this show skews closer to a Grimm fairy tale than it does to Cops, it is not surprising that they got inspiration from a horror movie trope.

My take was, what was going through Hannibal's mind:
"Which would be more interesting, to see Jack tormented by never saying goodbye, or to have him see the woman he loves resent him for keeping her alive? They both sound so promising… aha, the coin!"

I just noticed that the two lab guys are wearing thin plastic aprons.
I wonder if it is the summer wear from the same store that makes Hannibal's full body plastic suits. (Maybe that's how they find the truth, by Hannibal's clothing purchases & kitchen spices around the time of each murder.)

(Spock looks over Stonn.)
"I fail to see the logic in choosing Stonn over me."

All the more interesting, when MemoryAlpha suggests that some of Quark's speech may have been Sisko dialog from an early script version (which Echevarria scrapped when it turned out preposterous).

I think this falls into the "show the bad guy beating up Worf" category.
It is meant to show how strong the pull of his people was, that it would threaten his values, but you (Roswulf) felt that instead it diminished his character.

MORE SPOILERS

Great… now I have the Jan Hammer theme music as an ear worm (although fortunately not the "Ceti Alpha V" version).

I don't disagree that Kira's change of mind felt flat, but I think they showed it was a bit more than Odo just loosening up.

Would add new context to the phrase "Klingon head butt".

Now I'm imagining the Cardassian version of a crime caper.

I was going to work in the ambassador party from VOY:"Someone To Watch Over Me", but these choices were easier to set up.

When I was watching "Chimera" (and episodes later in the season), I realized that I don't like seeing Odo and Kira as a kissy-face happy couple.
