Introduction

The station is going to be shepherding a series of industrial replicators to Cardassia to help them rebuild after their war with the Klingons. Expecting the Maquis to attempt to interfere, the station is on high alert. More problematic, though, is the person Odo and Eddington single out as a suspected Maquis: Kasidy Yates.

In the future, all sports are inscrutably embellished and have ridiculous headgear. It's a thing.

The Mirror Universe's Jennifer Sisko appears and takes Jake back with her as a ploy to lure Captain Sisko back. They have built their own version of the Defiant, and need his help to finish the project before the Alliance arrives to retake Terok Nor from the fledgling Rebels.

OK, this is a little on the nose, don't you think?

Random Trek movie thought...

How much better would Star Trek Nemesis have been if:

1. The nemesis in question were Sela, and she were the leader or perhaps a high official in an aggressive militaristic faction of Romulan society similar to Germany's Nazi party.

2. The sacrifice at the end had been Ambassador Spock's, perhaps to prevent some sort of holocaust, an ultimate "needs of the many" sort of moment.

3. The plot of such a movie resolved the Romulan-Vulcan unification plot left over from TNG.
