Data Stellare 51408.6: Sisko e
Dukat si trovano intrappolati su un pianeta a causa del naufragio della
Honshu, distrutta da un attacco dei
Cardassiani mentre li trasportava alla
base stellare 621.
- Quando Sisko tenta di riattivare la radio di emergenza, in un'inquadratura ravvicinata di profilo si vede un pannello con un'etichetta contrassegnata con 047.
Sisko: He lost an empire, he lost his daughter and he nearly lost his mind: whatever his crimes, isn't that enough punishment for one lifetime?
Kira: I'll tell you what I think! I think you're an evil, sadistic man who should have been tried as a war criminal years ago, put up against a wall and shot!!!
Sisko: You know, Old Man... sometime life seems so complicated. Nothing is truly good or truly evil. Everything seems to be a shade of grey. And then you spend some time with a man like Dukat... and you realize that there is such a thing as truly evil.
Dax: To realize that is one thing. To do something about it is another.
- Questo è il brano tratto dallo script relativo alla scena con gli ordini che Kira impartisce alla Defiant e che l'equipaggio ha pensato bene di "non capire". Le parti tra parentesi quadre sono quelle incomprensibili durante la
comunicazione.

[The troop] convoy [will be

And they're under strict] radio
silence. [There's no way they]
can acknowledge our signal even
[if I sent one. I'm] sorry, Worf,
but [you've got to break off] your
search and --
The transmission breaks up completely.
