- Quotes
[a blind torpedo has gone halfway through the Defiant's hull, sticking through the bulkhead]
Hanok: We sell these torpedoes to the Jem'Hadar.
Quark: I thought you said you never sold substandard merchandise.
[Hanok gives him a quizzical look]
Quark: This was supposed to explode on impact, wasn't it?
Hanok: ...Maybe I should offer them a refund.
[Hanok and Quark burst out laughing]

Featured review
Survival and Ingenuity
This is a plain old adventure film in the classic style. It is survival by the seat of your pants. When the Defiant is confronted by the new enemy as she is about to rendezvous with another ship, Sisko is injured and a couple red shirts are killed. The main crew must each approach things from a new perspective, including a couple engineers who are under the gun. The best part is a storytelling session where Sisko lies on the brink of death. Kira does all she can to get him to hold on. Nicely done.
