This completes a run of three great episodes. I spared the first two seasons during my last rewatch runs because I found them to be cheesy during my first runs many years ago. But this one and the two before it are great examples of prototypical Trek. I forgot how good they are and also thought they would be much later, in the second sason or so.
But of course this one is especially a show case for Colm Meaneys talent. Man, I like Miles so much, he's the unsung hero of DS9. Can't wait for his friendship wit Julian to pick up speed. Also Sisko is much mor mature and open for the grey zone here than I remembered. All the performances are just great already... I'll never compare this first season to that of TNG or any other Trek. I know there are some stinkers awaiting, but the quality is just better. Just started this rerun, but this episode really got me in the mood for much more now.
