01 EMISSARY
teleplay by Michael Piller
story by Rick Berman & Michael Piller
directed by David Carson
music by Dennis McCarthy (Crescendo GNP cassette & CD # GNPD 8034)
Stardate 46379.1: Commander Ben Sisko and his son Jake, both survivors of the
Wolf 359 Borg massacre, arrive at the planet Bajor as part of a Starfleet
team taking over the abandoned Cardassian space station Deep Space 9. The
station, which was inentionally damaged by the Cardassians before they left
it behind, is being pieced together by newly-transferred Operations Chief
O' Brien from the Enterprise. Sisko also meets Major Kira, his Bajoran
first officer who doubts the ability of the provisional government of Bajor
to avert a civil war and trusts the Federation even less; Odo, a mysterious
shapeshifter in charge of station security; and Quark, the suspicious
Ferengi kingpin who's eager to get out of town before the regulatory hand of
the Federation clamps down on his shady "business" affairs. Sisko is
summoned to the Enterprise for a briefing with Captain Picard, whom he still
remembers as the man responsible for the death of thousands, including
Sisko's wife, in the Borg invasion attempt. Picard gives Sisko the
Federation's orders regarding management of Deep Space 9 - to do everything,
short of violating the prime directive, to get the struggling Bajora back on
their feet so they can join the Federation. Sisko, however, is considering
resigning from Starfleet to raise his son in a better environment.
Soon afterward, the Enterprise departs to undertake other duties as the
station's new doctor, the brilliant but inexperienced Julian Bashir, and
science officer Jadzia Dax arrive. Dax, a Trill who has lived in a number
of bodies, is an old friend of Sisko's. Sisko, at the suggestion of Kira,
travels to Bajor and visits Bajoran spiritual leader Kai Opaka, who tells
Sisko that he is to be the emissary of the people to the temple of their
gods. Opaka reveals an Orb, a mystic object of a type which has appeared
throughout Bajoran history. The Orb envelops Sisko in a brief recollection
of his first meeting with his wife, and then releases him. Opaka gives him
the Orb, and the news that Sisko - whether he likes it or not, whether he
even knows it or not - will find the temple. He returns to Deep Space 9 and
hands the Orb over to Dax for further study. The Cardassians return,
ostensibly to make use of the station's amenities. Dax discovers that
reports of the Orbs' appearances correspond to a certain area of space near
Bajor. She and Sisko set out in a Federation Runabout to investigate, and
stumble across a wormhole that shoots them 70,000 light years across the
galaxy. Trying to return to the station, their ship is halted. Dax is
taken back to the station by an Orb, while Sisko is kept and studied by
noncorporeal beings who built the wormhole. These beings have no conception
of linear time, existing simultaneously in the past, present and future, and
they ask Sisko questions about the ephemeral nature of humans, which they do
not comprehend.
Dax, back on Deep Space 9, fills the crew in on details of the wormhole.
Major Kira orders O' Brien to shift the station's position so that it stands
in front of the wormhole. A Cardassian ship, however, enters the wormhole,
but is damaged by the wormhole life forms. When another Cardassian flotilla
arrives and finds no sign of the missing ship, they threaten to open fire on
Deep Space 9 unless Kira agrees to surrender the station. In the wormhole,
the aliens' study of Sisko reaches an end when they discover the human drive
for knowledge, and they are puzzled by Sisko's inability to live down the
death of his wife. At the station, Kira's brinksmanship abilities and her
feisty confrontations with the Cardassians result in a firefight, damaging
the station heavily. The solution to the confrontation lies with Sisko, if
he can overcome the wormhole beings' manifestations of his inner barriers
and escape from the wormhole.

02 PAST PROLOGUE
written by Kathryn Powers
directed by Winrich Kolbe
music by Jay Chattaway
Stardate not given: Shortly after Dr. Bashir excitedly reports to Sisko a
meeting with a merchant who happens to be the only remaining Cardassian on
the station, a Bajoran ship is detected with hostile Cardassians hot in
pursuit. The single occupant of the damaged Bajoran vessel is beamed aboard
and is discovered to be a member of a group of violent Bajoran extremists
who have not yet ceased their terrorism against the Cardassians. Requesting
asylum, all Tahna does is invite Sisko's suspicion. Sisko is further put in
a tenuous situation when the Cardassian ship's commander demands that Tahna
be turned over for his crimes against the Cardassians. Kira, herself a
former member of Tahna's underground, tries to convince Tahna to give up his
violent tactics, but he refuses, and it turns out that his visit to Deep
Space 9 is all part of another of his inevitably bloody gambits for revenge.
This time, however, Tahna plans action not only against the Cardassians, but
the Federation as well - and he expects Kira to help him.

03 A MAN ALONE
teleplay by Michael Piller
story by Gerald Sanford and Michael Piller
directed by Paul Lynch
music by Jay Chattaway
Stardate 46421.5: During routine banter with Quark on the Promenade, Odo
spots Ibundan, a Bajoran man he jailed months ago for murder, and the old
enemies get into a fight almost immediately. Not long afterward, Ibundan is
found dead in one of the Promenade's holosuites, and evidence has been
carefully placed to lead a trail to Odo, a suspicion which spreads among the
station's populace along with rumors of Odo being a Cardassian agent and a
growing paranoia. Bashir and Dax begin putting together pieces of a puzzle
which include DNA traces from Ibundan's ship, but in the meantime, the
station's residents grow restless and demand that Odo be handed over to be
punished for a crime they believe he committed. While Sisko and his crew
are working full-time on finding the solution to the crime, the denizens of
Deep Space 9 seem to have no intention of allowing Odo to survive long
enough to stand trial.

04 BABEL
teleplay by Michael McGreevey and Naren Shankar
story by Sally Caves and Ira Steven Behr
directed by Paul Lynch
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate 46425.8: Business as usual is keeping O' Brien the busiest man on
DS9, as systems continuously break down almost at random, mainly food
replicators. In the course of his repairs, O' Brien accidentally activates
a concealed Bajoran device designed to release an adaptive virus into the
food generated by that replicator. He is immediately stricken with the
disease, which scrambles his brain's ability to connect language, stimuli
and responses. Quark, impatient to get service back on schedule at his bar,
unwittingly spreads the virus to all of his patrons, and a stationwide
epidemic ensues. Bashir, before falling victim to the virus himself,
discovers that the plague was created by the Bajora in an attempt to prevent
the construction of the station years ago, and it is eventually fatal. Most
of the population is rendered useless, with a few exceptions, among them
Odo, Major Kira and Quark. They must find an antidote to the virus and try
to ensure the station's safety until a cure can be found.

05 CAPTIVE PURSUIT
teleplay by Jill Sherman Donner and Michael Piller
story by Jill Sherman Donner
directed by Corey Allen
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate not given: The first ship from the Gamma Quadrant emerges through
the wormhole and arrives at DS9. Its single occupant is convinced to dock
at the station to allow the crew to repair his battle-damaged vessel.
O' Brien tries to get acquainted with the alien, who identifies itself only
as Tosk. As soon as no one is watching, however, Tosk begins trying to
determine how to fight and hide on the station. Odo discovers Tosk
tampering with a security junction and Tosk winds up in the brig. A second
ship arrives from the wormhole. Sisko gives the new visitors every chance
to make friendly contact, but they instead disrupt the station's shields and
beam into the Promenade without permission. Armed, they begin searching for
Tosk and hold the crew at bay. It turns out that they are game hunters
searching for Tosk, and advise the crew of DS9 to stay out of their way.
O' Brien decides to take the rules of the hunt into his own hands to prevent
Tosk from having to be bagged in captivity and disgrace.
Guest Cast: Scott MacDonald (Tosk), Gerrit Graham (The Hunter), Kelly Curtis
(Miss Sarda)
06 Q-LESS
teleplay by Robert Hewitt Wolfe
story by Hannah Louise Shearer
directed by Paul Lynch
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate 46531.2: A Runabout barely returns from the Gamma Quadrant after
experiencing a power loss on its way back to DS9. The crew must be rescued
by Sisko, Kira and O' Brien on arrival, and they have brought a passenger
back from the other side: Vash, Captain Picard's old flame from a vacation
on Risa, last seen going off to explore the universe with Q. Vash has
apparently been wandering through the Gamma Quadrant on her own for two
years, and once she gets settled in on the station, begins making plans to
sell several artifacts from the Gamma Quadrant. In the meantime, power
failures begin occurring on DS9, coinciding with the arrival of Q, who is
pestering Vash to continue her travels with him. Q also introduces himself
to Sisko and the station crew and delights in irritating them as much as he
has always enjoyed badgering the Enterprise crew. In the meantime, Vash
meets Quark and they begin planning an auction of her Gamma Quadrant loot -
off of which they both expect to make a fortune. Power failures and Q
continue to plague the station, climaxing with a gravitational force sucking
DS9 straight toward the wormhole. Sisko is unsure whether an unknown
natural phenomenon is dragging the station to its doom, or if Q is simply
playing another of his infamous pranks.
Guest Cast: John de Lancie (Q), Jennifer Hetrick (Vash), Van Epperson
(Bajoran Clerk), Tom McCleister (Kolos), Laura Cameron (Bajoran Woman)

story by Peter Allan Fields
directed by David Carson
music by Jay Chattaway
Stardate 46910.1: A small group of Klaestrons try to kidnap Lt. Dax from the
station, but Sisko snags their ship in the station's tractor beam before
they can escape with their hostage. The leader of the Klaestron party,
Ilon Tandro, claims to be carrying out the extradition of Dax on charges of
treason and the murder of Tandro's military father 30 years before, when Dax
inhabited the host body Curzon. Sisko, not believing the charges and unable
to comprehend Dax's silence regarding the situation, stalls the Klaestrons'
plans by calling for an extradition hearing overseen by a Bajoran judge, and
sends Odo to Klaestron 4 to find out as much as he can about Curzon Dax's
activities 30 years ago. Meanwhile, time, and possibly the letter of the
law, are against the case for Dax's freedom and survival.

other while trying to coordinate security for the transfer of a deuridium
shipment due to arrive at DS9, a Runabout is sent to aid a crippled Kobliad
prison ship, containing investigator Ty Kajada and two corpses, one of which
was a notorious Kobliad criminal known as Rao Vantika, who, even after being
pronounced dead by Bashir, is still considered a major threat by Kajada.
Dax discovers, during post-mortem investigations, that Vantika was capable
of transferring his consciousness into the mind of any other being without
the recipient's consent or even their knowledge. The vital shipment may be
lost to Vantika, whoever his evil ambitions inhabit now - and he has
henchmen waiting to assist him on the station.

story by Michael Piller
directed by David Carson
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate not given: A group of Gamma Quadrant aliens led by Falow makes first
contact with the station, an event which Sisko intends to treat with the
utmost seriousness and ceremony. Sisko is surprised, however, when Falow
and his fellow travelers seem to be interested only in games. After Sisko
leaves the proceedings out of boredom and mild disappointment, Quark cheats
Falow in his casino, and Falow means to get even by introducing Quark to a
game from the Gamma Quadrant. At the same time, Sisko, Dax, Major Kira and
Dr. Bashir vanish from the station without a trace, finding themselves in a
surreal maze occupied by images of Falow and others. As they try to work
out the puzzle and help each other survive, Quark continues to play the
game, only gradually becoming aware of who his pawns are.

story by David Livingston
directed by David Livingston
music by John Debney
Stardate not given: Quark receives a surprise - and something of a dubious
honor - when Grand Nagus Zek, a Ferengi business mogul, arrives at DS9.
After some customary patronizing at Quark's, Zek insists on holding a
conference of Ferengi profiteers there, while Quark fears that Zek plans on
buying out his bar on the station. To everyone's surprise, especially
Quark's, Zek announces his retirement and declares that Quark will succeed
him to the coveted position of Grand Nagus. Many of the visiting Ferengi
are jealous, as would be expected of them. But Quark discovers - after a
close call - that someone among the Ferengi is jealous enough to try gaining
the position of Nagus by killing him.

music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate not given: Quark and Rom are involved in a shady deal with a pair of
twin Miradorns when a recent visitor from the wormhole interrupts, kills one
of the Miradorn brothers, and tries to steal a valuable item. Odo turns out
to have been present all along and intervenes before the surviving Miradorn
can exact vengeance, but Croden, the visitor from a distant planet Rakhar
troubles Odo even more, for he may have a clue to the shapeshifter's origins
in the Gamma Quadrant. Odo must decide whether or not to trust the criminal
when Sisko orders him to transport Croden back through the wormhole to
Rakhar - and the surviving Miradorn brother leaves DS9 to follow the
Runabout carrying his brother's murderer.

directed by Paul Lynch
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate not given: On a routine day at the station, Kai Opaka, the Bajoran
spiritual leader who helped lead Sisko to discover the wormhole when he
first arrived at DS9, pays a surprise visit. Sisko, Kira and Bashir take
Opaka on her first trip through the wormhole. Before they can return to the
station, a signal is detected from a series of satellites orbiting a moon in
the Gamma Quadrant. When Sisko's Runabout investigates, it is fired on by
one of the satellites, forcing the ship to crash-land on the moon. Opaka
dies on impact, but before Kira has long to grieve, warriors appear and take
the crash survivors back to their camp. It is discovered that two groups of
combatants have been stranded there for centuries, fighting a war in which
no one ever dies - not even newcomers who find themselves in the line of
fire.

Banks (Shel-la), Majel Barrett (Computer Voice)
13 THE STORYTELLER

story by Kurt Michael Bensmiller
directed by David Livingston
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate 46729.1: As the leaders of two Bajoran factions arrive on the
station where Sisko hopes to diplomatically steer them away from solving
their differences in combat, O' Brien and Dr. Bashir depart to Bajor in
response to a distress call which vaguely stated that an entire community is
jeopardized. Bashir is puzzled to find all of the villagers except one -
the elderly Sirah - in perfect health, yet the locals still insist that they
are in mortal danger. They discover, when the Sirah makes his appearance at
a yearly festival (against Bashir's recommendation), that the threat comes
from the legendary Dal'Rok, a mythical creature which descends upon the
village for five nights of each year in an attempt to destroy it. But every
year in the past several generations, the village Sirah told a Story,
somehow halting the Dal'Rok's onslaught. This year, the Sirah will not
complete his Story...

directed by Les Landau
music by John Debney
Stardate 46844.3: With the aid of the station crew, the Bajoran provisional
government prepares to convert a moon into part of a power system needed to
help Bajor overcome the damage caused by decades of Cardassian rule. On a
final inspection flyover of the moon, Kira and Dax detect humanoid life on
the suface. Kira beams down and finds stubborn old Mullibok, who has been
living on the moon almost since the Cardassians arrived to take over Bajor.
Mullibok and his two neighbors rendered mute by Cardassian torture years ago
refuse to leave the moon, even when Kira warns that the conversion of the
moon into a power facility will kill all life there. But when Kira begins
the first steps of the provisional government's orders to remove the
settlers by force, she finds herself sympathetic with Mullibok's plight and
joins in their fight to stay until the imminent end.

Stardate 46853.2: The strange behavior of space near the wormhole and the
sudden appearance in Chief O' Brien's quarters of a character from a bedtime
story read to Molly signal the beginning of an alien study of the station's
crew from the vantage point of manifestations of their imaginations, ranging
from a favorite baseball player of Sisko's to a pair of ravishing beauties
(appearing, naturally, on Quark's arms) to the girl of Bashir's dreams -
Dax, but with a far different personality. At first the apparitions seem
harmless, but it then seems that they are capable of posing danger to the
crew.

Bokai), Michael John Anderson (Rumpelstiltskin)
16 THE FORSAKEN

story by Jim Trombetta
directed by Les Landau
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate 46925.1: A handful of Federation ambassadors boards Deep Space 9 on
a fact-finding mission - one which is failing to get off the ground since
the delegates seem unable to cope with the fact that the station isn't
exactly a proper Federation starbase. Among the delegates is Lwaxana Troi,
who becomes enamoured of Odo after he retrieves a stolen item of hers from a
thief at Quark's bar. As she begins scheming to snare the constable, a
small probe emerges from the wormhole, and to O' Brien's surprise, the
station computer actually works well enough for once to download information
from the probe. The probe's effect on the station computer is inexplicable,
including stranding Odo in a stuck turbolift with Lwaxana Troi...
Guest Cast: Majel Barrett (Lwaxana Troi), Constance Towers (Ambassador
Taxco), Michael Ensign (Ambassador Lojal), Jack Shearer (Ambassador
Vadosia), Benita Andre (Anara)
17 DRAMATIS PERSONAE
written by Joe Menosky
directed by Cliff Bole
music by Jay Chattaway
Stardate 46922.3: A Klingon ship makes an unexpected return from a scientific
mission in the Gamma Quadrant and self-destructs. A single member of the
ship's crew beams himself into Ops, dying shortly after cryptically
announcing "victory." As Dax and O' Brien start trying to piece together
the mystery of the Klingon ship, divisions take place between members of
DS9's crew. Kira, still unsatisfied after losing an argument with Sisko
about security arrangements for a shipload of possible allies of the
Cardassians, begins to plot against the commander, quietly gathering loyal
followers among the crew and threatening those who don't sympathize with her
cause. Sisko, in the meantime, goes into hiding supposedly for security
reasons, as he and Chief O' Brien prepare for Kira's imminent mutiny.
Odo remains the only officer who hasn't taken up arms with either side yet,
since he has his own motive.

music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate not given: A Federation freighter arrives and delivers a passenger
who needs medical attention. At the mention of the passenger's disease,
Kira realizes that whoever it is, they were at a forced labor camp operated
on Bajor by the Cardassians which Kira helped to liberate years ago. But
the patient turns out to be a Cardassian. Kira places him under arrest and,
against Sisko's advice, interrogates him. Under questioning, the Cardassian
suddenly proclaims himself to be Gul Darhe'el, who commanded the labor camps
and authorized genocidal killings of Bajorans. Kira, along with the Bajoran
provisional government, takes a more vested interest in proving him guilty
of past atrocities...even if he isn't who he says he is.

contender for the position of Kai, appears in Keiko's classroom and declares
that Keiko's scientific teachings about the wormhole are in conflict with
Bajoran beliefs. Winn's announcement divides the Federation officers and
Bajorans on the station who follow Winn. Sisko attempts to enlist the aid
of Vedek Bariel, the quiet leader in the race to become Kai, but initially
meets with no cooperation. When terrorist acts begin, it becomes apparent
that Bajoran political interests may also be deeply involved - and the
Federation crew of Deep Space 9 may have outstayed their welcome.

20 THE HOMECOMING
teleplay by Ira Steven Behr
story by Jeri Taylor and Ira Steven Behr
directed by Winrich Kolbe
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate not given: A visitor to DS9 gives Quark the earring of a legendary
Bajoran POW, and Quark hands it over to Kira. Kira recognizes it as the one
belonging to Li Nalas, the greatest freedom fighter in Bajoran history and
legend. Kira convinces Sisko to loan her a Runabout - and Chief O' Brien as
pilot - to travel to Cardassia IV. Recovering Li Nalas and a handful of
other Bajorans from a forced labor camp, Kira and O' Brien rush back to DS9.
Though the Bajoran provisional government officially condemns Kira's
cabalier rescue operation, the Bajorans on the station and everywhere
rejoice in Li's return. Sisko hopes Li can reunite the gradually dissolving
Bajoran government, which is splitting into many factions, including the
extremist reactionary Circle, isolationists who mean to evict all
non-Bajorans from Bajor or DS9. The Circle is, in fact, beginning to make
its presence known aboard the station, as is Li Nalas, when he winds up
replacing Kira as the Bajoran liaison officer on DS9.

21 THE CIRCLE
written by Peter Allan Fields
directed by Corey Allen
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate not given: Kira has been recalled to Bajor, and accepts an
invitation from Vedek Bariel to spend some time at his monastery. There,
she encounters the Third Orb, which gives her a strange vision including
Dax, Vedeks Winn and Bariel, Minister Jaro, and the Bajoran Chamber of
Ministers. In the meantime, as Li Nalas tries to fit into his role as DS9's
first officer, the crew stumbles across evidence that the Circle is more
than an isolated faction, but instead a well-organized and surprisingly
well-armed movement which is waiting in the wings to overthrow the
provisional government of Bajor by force. Unknown to the Circle's members,
however, they are being provided weapons by the Cardassians, who anticipate
correctly that Starfleet will order Sisko and all other Federation personnel
to evacuate DS9 and leave Bajor to its own political machinations. The
Circle launches assault ships to attack the station, however, and many of
the Starfleet occupants have no choice but to stay behind and fight for
their survival...

22 THE SIEGE
written by Michael Piller
directed by Winrich Kolbe
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate not given: DS9 is being abandoned, and everyone from the Starfleet
contingent to civilians are evacuating to various places of safety. In the
meantime, Sisko and some others decide to stay and fight it out with the
Bajoran assault squadrons. Kira is determined to get proof of the
Cardassians' interference in Bajoran affairs to the Chamber of Ministers,
even if it means walking into the assembly and showing the evidence to them
herself. Li tells her where to find hidden fighter craft left over from the
Cardassian occupation, and with Dax's help, Kira sets out on her mission.
Bajorans General Krim and Colonel Day, along with several shiploads of
soldiers, take over the station, cautious because there is no resistance.
Sisko, Li, Odo, and many other crew members begin to wage guerilla warfare
upon DS9's new occupants. Kira and Dax, after a quick dogfight with Bajoran
assault ships, crash-land on Bajor and are rescued by Vedek Bariel, who gets
them into the Chamber of Ministers with the damning evidence intact. As the
Circle's popularity dissolves before the eyes of its high-ranking
supporters, the Bajoran troops on DS9 are ordered to stand down - but some

story by John Whelpley
directed by Les Landau
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate 47182.1: DS9 is evacuated to avoid endangering any personnel due to
the passage of a plasma storm. A handful of renegades infiltrates the
nearly-abandoned station with the aid of Quark, who doesn't know what
they're really after. The leader of the intruders is Verad, a candidate for
Trill host who was rejected by the symbiosis evalutation board as unfit for
the joining, and he intends to steal the symbiont Dax. As the crew is held
hostage, Bashir is coerced into performing the operation to implant Dax into
Verad. As Bashir struggles to keep Jadzia alive long enough to reunite her
with Dax, Sisko tries to keep the newly integrated Verad Dax talking in hope
of appealing to his mentor's better nature.

24 CARDASSIANS
teleplay by James Crocker
story by Gene Wolande and John Wright
directed by Cliff Bole
music by Jay Chattaway
Stardate 47177.2: A Bajoran man arrives on DS9 with his adopted son, a young
Cardassian who was abandoned when his people withdrew from Bajor. This
draws the attention of the Cardassian government, particularly Gul Dukat,
who claims he is eager to solve the dilemma of Cardassian war orphans left
behind on Bajor. DS9's resident tailor, Garak, seems to find Dukat's sudden
pledge to resolve the abandoned children's situation ironic, since the boy
in question is really the son of one of the civilian assembly who voted to
pull the Cardassian military out of Bajoran space - one of Dukat's political
adversaries. Sisko and Dr. Bashir, aided and abetted by Garak's cryptic
advice, must decide the fate of the Cardassian youth, possibly deciding the
end result of an internal power struggle whose combatants couldn't care less
about the boy's situation.

25 MELORA
teleplay by Evan Carlos Somers and Steven Baum
and Michael Piller & James Crocker
story by Evan Carlos Somers
directed by Winrich Kolbe
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate 47229.1: The first Elaysian officer in Starfleet, Ensign Melora
Pazlar, is assigned to DS9. Bashir and O'Brien have had to modify various
passageways to permit Melora - whose low-gravity home world leaves her body
reliant on a wheelchair in normal gravity - access to as much of the station
as possible. In the meantime, Quark's former partner, who he once sold out
to the Romulans in order to save his own skin, has finally been released by
his captors and has come aboard the station to exact vengeance upon Quark.
Bashir decides to make an effort to cut through Melora's oversensitivity and
defensiveness in order to help her, and even discovers that there may be a
way to reverse her handicap.
Guest Cast: Daphne Ashbrook (Melora), Peter Crombie (Fallit Kot), Don Stark
(Ashrock), Ron Taylor (Klingon Chef)
26 RULES OF ACQUISITION
teleplay by Ira Steven Behr
story by Hilary Bader
directed by David Livingston
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate not given: Grand Nagus Zek once again plans to use DS9 as the launch
pad of Ferengi business opportunities in the Gamma Quadrant, and again he
sees Quark as a valuable agent in securing the financial future of the
Ferengi Alliance - or a scapegoat should his efforts to make commercial
inroads through the other side of the wormhole fail. A newcomer to Quark's
is another Ferengi named Pel, who is especially savvy to Ferengi rules of
commerce and materialism - but flies in the face of the rules of traditional
Ferengi customs, since Pel is a female in disguise who, in Ferengi society,
could be jailed for stepping out of her house with clothes on.
Guest Cast: Helene Udy (Pel), Wallace Shawn (Zek), Tiny Ron (Maihar'du),
Brian Thompson (Zyree), Max Grodenchik (Rom), Emilia Crow (Inglatu)

written by Peter Allan Fields
directed by James L. Conway
music by Jay Chattaway
Stardate 47282.5: Quark is hired to retrieve a list of names hidden on DS9 by
a Bajoran five years ago, but when he gets curious about the list's
contents, a Bajoran man enters his bar and shoots him. As Quark fights for
his life in the infirmary under guard, Odo realizes that this incident is
somehow linked to the murder of a Bajoran five years ago, when Odo was first
assigned to investigate his first crime on DS9 by Gul Dukat. The Bajoran
whose murder Odo never solved turns out to be the husband of the woman who
paid Quark to get the list. Five years ago, she accused Kira of the crime,
claiming that the then-resistance fighter was having an affair with the
woman's husband. Though the woman is currently involved in some suspicious
activities, she was correct in one of those assumptions.
Guest Cast: Katherine Moffat (Pallra), Max Grodenchik (Rom), Marc Alaimo (Gul
Dukat), Robert Mackenzie (Trazko)

between them, she disappears without a trace moments later. The next day,
despite Fenna's vanishing act, Sisko carries out his duties, including the
preparation of the USS Prometheus to carry out a hazardous stellar ignition
experiment under the auspices of Dr. Seyetik - whose wife, as it so happens,
turns out to be Fenna...or a duplicate of her. En route to the potentially
deadly site of a dead star via the Prometheus, Sisko struggles to decipher
Fenna's secret.

members of an unknown race from the Gamma Quadrant. The station's universal
translator takes a good deal of time to decipher the aliens' language, but

Sisko and Kira that there are three million others on the other side of the
wormhole, referrred to in their native Skrreean mythology as the eye of the
universe, looking for Kentaana, their destiny according to legend. As it

directed by David Livingston
music by Jay Chattaway
Stardate not given: A new face arrives on DS9's Promenade, an open face with
an apparently big heart, enough to listen through any hard luck story and
comfort the person telling it. Unknown to his increasingly large number of
friends, however, Martus is simply gathering information and awaiting his
opportunity. When he finds a way to open an entertainment center that
steals Quark's clientele, Quark begins to suspect that his luck has run out.

31 THE ALTERNATE
teleplay by Bill Dial
story by Jim Trombetta and Bill Dial
directed by David Carson
music by Dennis McCarthy
Stardate not given: Dr. Mora Pol, the Bajoran scientist who studied Odo and
first discovered that Odo is a living creature, arrives on DS9 to enlist the
shapeshifter's help in another research endeavor - this time a journey into
the Gamma Quadrant to investigate a world that may once have harbored beings
similar in nature to Odo. Finding only the ruins of some past civilization
at first, the away team also find some local flora that appear to bear some
resemblance to Odo. A geological upheaval on the planet sends the members
of the away team scrambling for cover from suffocating natural gases. After
returning to their runabout and going back to the station, most of them wind
up recovering in the infirmary recovering from gas inhalation. Only Odo
appears to be uninfected, which is fortunate since something the away team
has brought back from the Gamma Quadrant would appear to be lose aboard DS9
- something with abilities remarkably similar to Odo's...
Guest Cast: James Sloyan (Dr. Mora Pol), Matt MacKenzie (Dr. Weld Ram)
32 ARMAGEDDON GAME
written by Morgan Gendel
directed by Winrich Kolbe
music by Jay Chattaway
Stardate not given: Bashir and O' Brien are on attachment to a research
vessel in the Gamma Quadrant, attempting to help the Kellerans and Tellani
destroy their bumper crop of biological weapons known as Harvesters.
Shortly after finally discovering a means of rendering the Harvesters inert,
the scientists on the alien ship are stormed by a squadron of armed troops.
Only Bashir and O' Brien escape, beaming down to nearby Tellani III when
they are unable to contact their Runabout. O' Brien has been infected by
material from a Harvester and will die within days if he doesn't receive
treatment that Bashir cannot provide without the station's medical
facilities. In the meantime, Sisko and the crew have been informed that
Bashir and O' Brien died in an accident aboard the research ship - but
unknown to the crew, those who Bashir and O' Brien were helping in good
faith are deliberately responsible for the attack.
Guest Cast: Rosalind Chao (Keiko), Darleen Carr (Lakisha), Peter White
(Sharat), Larry Cedar (Nydro), Bill Mondy (Jakin)
