Captain's Log,
Stardate 51145.3.

The Defiant has been operating
out of Starbase 375

conducting forays
into Dominion controlled space.

While the missions have taken a toll
on my people,

they remain determined to do
whatever it takes to win this war

as do I.

Here you are.

Where did you get your hands
on Saurian brandy?

In the middle of a war, no less.

It's a busy star base.

I may be a cadet,
but I'm still a Ferengi.

Lucky for us.

Excuse me, Captain.

The power cell from
the phaser array.

We used it up on
the last mission.

Take a good look
at this, people.

It says something
about this ship.

It says that we will fight

and we will keep on fighting
until we can't fight anymore.

Yes, sir.

You don't just throw
something like this away.

No, sir.

Admiral on deck.

As you were.

Ben.

Admiral.

Um, let's, uh, take a walk.

What was going on in there?

Just a little
ritual we fell into.

It kind of helps
the crew unwind.

Well, they deserve it.
They did a hell of a job.

Thank you, sir.

But you didn't come here
to tell me that, did you?

No, I didn't.

Ever since this war began,
the Dominion's been able

to outmaneuver us at every turn.

Wherever we send our ships

they seem to be
there waiting for us.

I've noticed that.

It was enough to make you think
that they were smarter than we are.

But they're not.

They just had an edge that
we didn't know anything about...

Until yesterday.

Starfleet Intelligence has
located a massive sensor array

hidden on the periphery
of the Argolis Cluster.

The damn thing's capable of monitoring
ship movements over five sectors.

That's how they managed
to stay one step ahead of us.

They've had an enormous
tactical advantage.

I want you to take
it away from them.

Gladly, sir.

It won't be easy.

The array is heavily defended.

This is the intelligence report.

Look it over.

I want an attack plan
on my desk by 0800.

You'll have it.

There he is.

Damar's a creature
of habit, all right.

After a hard day at work,
he deserves his glass of kanar.

"Why are the Jem'Hadar
always in here?"

He asks himself.

They don't drink.

They don't eat.
They don't gamble.

All they do is take up space.

Damar asks his bartender2

if he found a padd he was
working on the other day.

My brother tells the truth.

He hasn't seen it.

Damar doesn't like that.

The padd contained a draft copy

of a secret memorandum
he was working on

concerning the
shortage of white.

In it, he speculates
that, without the drug,

the Jem'Hadar will run amok

killing everyone and
everything in their path.

Damar recommends that if the
Cardassians can't bring down the minefield

and reopen the supply-line
from the Gamma Quadrant,

they should poison
the last ration of white

eliminating the Jem'Hadar
before it's too late.

How did you get a hold
of Damar's padd anyway?

I'm good with my hands.

Here we go.

They've seen him.

Damar.

The missing padd.

Where'd you find that?

Damar accuses
them of stealing it.

But they say they
found it outside their quarters...

Right where I left it.

Have you and your
whole race thrown off of this station!

I knew this was going to work.

The Cardassians and the
Jem'Hadar can pretend to be allies...

But they hate each other.

Get out of my way!

Ow.

When I confronted
them, they attacked me.

I don't care what they did.

You should never have let
this situation get out of hand.

Get out!

How could Damar be so stupid

as to leave such an
inflammatory document

lying around for anyone to find?

Your men stole it from him.

- Jem'Hadar are not thieves.
- And Damar is not a liar.

Keep your voice down.

Our men need to see
that we're still allies.

Smile.

Dukat.

I'm smiling.

Gentlemen, I suggest we
get everyone out of here

as soon as possible.

Odo's right.

Tell your men they're confined to
quarters pending disciplinary hearings.

I'll do the same.

And keep smiling.

Come.

According to Intelligence,

the array is capable of
detecting cloaked ships

as far as two light years away.

By the time the Defiant goes
around the Argolis Cluster

the Dominion will already
know we're coming.

You'll have a dozen Jem'Hadar ships
on you before you can even get close.

That's why we need the
element of surprise on our side.

It's the only way.

What are you suggesting?

That I take the Defiant
through the Argolis.

You can't get a
ship through there.

You'd be cut to pieces
by the gravimetric shear.

That's exactly what
the Dominion thinks.

But if we come at
them from the Argolis,

they won't know what hit them.

What makes you think
you can get through?

Dax says she can navigate
around the gravimetric distortions.

She's studied protostar clusters.
She knows what to look for.

It's a gamble, but it's
one I'm willing to take.

All right.

Let's give it a shot.

When can you leave?

As soon as we finish
repairs on the Defiant.

Keep me posted, Captain.

You wanted to see me.

Well?

Don't you have
something to say to me?

- About what happened at Quark's?
- Yeah.

It worked better
than I expected.

I knew you were behind it!

Of course you did.

We discussed it at our
last resistance meeting.

And I said it was a bad idea.

Yes, you did.

And then you walked out of the
room like there was nothing left to say.

But Rom and Jake stayed and we
discussed it, and you know what?

I decided it was a good idea.

So you went ahead and
did it behind my back?

Why are you taking
this so personally?

How do you expect me to take it?

I spend my days sitting on the
Council with Dukat and Weyoun

doing whatever I can
to make sure that Bajor

survives this war intact.

The last thing I need

is to have you running
around causing mayhem.

Do you have any idea
what Dukat would do

if he found out
you were behind it?

It's all the excuse
he would need

to throw every
Bajoran off this station.

The Federation
is losing this war.

We can't sit by and do nothing.

There are limits
to what we can do.

I'm beginning to think

you shouldn't have
agreed to sit on that Council.

It's as if you're so invested in
making sure the station runs smoothly

you've forgotten
there's a war going on.

Are you questioning
my loyalties, Major?

I need you, Odo.

The resistance needs you.

Answer me.

Are you questioning
my loyalties?

Oh, of course not.

That's not what this is about --

Hello, Odo. It's good
to see you again.

Leave us.

I need to speak with Odo.

Do you?

It's all right, Nerys.

I may as well hear
what she has to say.

Are you sure?

You called her "Nerys."

What of it?

Well, you used
to call her "Major."

Using the name of a
solid denotes intimacy.

You're a long way from home.

Here to keep an
eye on the war effort?

I'm content to leave the
details of the war to the Vorta.

Then what brings
you to Deep Space 9?

You.

I was trapped in
the Alpha Quadrant

when Captain Sisko mined
the entrance to the wormhole.

I have spent too
much time with solids.

I came because I felt the
need to be with one of my own.

Ah.

Well, that's ironic

considering what happened
the last time we crossed paths.

You caused the death of
a fellow changeling, Odo.

Turning you into a solid

was the only punishment
severe enough for your crime.

And now that I'm
a changeling again

you come here as though
nothing ever happened?

We have forgiven you.

Well, I haven't forgiven you.

It is time to put the
past behind us, Odo.

And what about the present?

You're waging a
war against my home.

This is not your home.

You belong with your own kind

as part of the Great Link.

I'm quite content
here, thank you.

You say that because you don't
know what you're capable of becoming.

Perhaps if we spent
some time together

you might begin to understand.

Admiral, you wanted to see me?

I just got word.

Captain Bennet's
promotion has come through.

At my recommendation
Starfleet's putting her in charge

of Seventh Tactical Wing.

She was one of the best
adjutants I've ever had,

a strong grasp of strategy
and ability to see the big picture.

Sounds like it's not going to be
easy to find someone to take her place.

I already have...

you.

Sir?

I've been very impressed with
you over these past few weeks.

I think we would
make a good team.

Thank you, sir.

Your new assignment
is effective immediately.

Immediately, sir?

What about the Argolis mission?

Commander Dax will
captain the Defiant.

She is up to it, isn't she?

Oh, absolutely, sir.

I guess I'd just
gotten used to the idea

of commanding
the mission myself.

Look over these
tactical reports.

I want your thoughts
on the Bolian operation.

We'll meet here at 0600.

Ben...

Congratulations.

Legate Krim will be
arriving in the morning.

I'll have a security detail
escort him to your office.

Well, if that's all...

Founder, you honor
us with your presence.

I understand the
war is going well.

Only because I've followed the
plan the Founders laid out for me.

Welcome to Terok Nor.

I'm glad we're finally
getting a chance to meet.

As leaders of our
respective worlds

you and I will be
taking our people

into a future that
I'm quite confident--

What about the minefield?

Why hasn't it been deactivated?

Yes, Dukat.

This delay is intolerable.

There are thousands
of Jem'Hadar ships

stranded on the other
side of the wormhole

waiting to come through
and join the war effort.

Maybe you haven't
read the latest reports,

but even without those ships

I'm still winning this war.

You're winning?

I assure you, I'm intimately
involved in all military decisions.

See to it the minefield
is brought down.

Of course.

We've imposed our
presence on you long enough.

If there's anything you
need while you're here,

please, let me know.

Do they always compete
with one another like that?

As a matter of fact, they do.

You have to interact
with them often.

It must be trying for you.

It hasn't been easy.

Now, if you'll excuse me I have
some work to do in my quarters.

May I walk with you?

To become a thing
is to know a thing.

To assume its form

is to begin to
understand its existence.

You tried to teach me that
when I visited our homeworld.

Hmm...

I remember.

I didn't understand what
you meant by it at first.

So when I returned
to the station

I got rid of all the furniture
I used to have in my quarters

and replaced it
with these objects.

I've assumed every
shape in this room.

I suppose if it weren't for you

I never would have
known the simple pleasure

of spending time existing
as a stone or a branch.

I'm glad you learned
something from your visit.

Your arrival was a time
of great joy for the Link

and your departure,

a time of great sadness.

If only you had
stayed with us, Odo...

I couldn't.

You chose the solids.

And I haven't regretted it.

Not even a little?

I do think about the
Link from time to time.

It's there for you.

I can't.

Why?

Because of Kira?

You still have feelings
for her, don't you?

But she doesn't share them.

I'm sorry.

Aren't you going to tell me

I shouldn't waste
my time with a solid?

You love her.

And I wish I didn't.

I'm so vulnerable to her.

All she has to do is smile at
me and I'm happy beyond reason.

A minor disagreement
between us and I'm devastated.

It's absurd.

Sometimes, I wish I
could reach inside myself

and tear out my
feelings for her.

But I can't.

Poor Odo.

I don't want your pity.

I am not offering pity.

What I need is some peace.

What you need is clarity.

I can give you that.

Do you want me to stop?

That'll be all.

What are you doing here, Damar?

Did Dukat demote
you to security detail?

What can I do for you, Major?

I'm looking for Odo.

Well, he's not here.

Do you know where he is?

Yes.

That's good. It's good to
know where your boss is.

He's in his quarters with
the other shape-shifter.

Jealous, Major?

Try to stay out
of trouble, Damar.

You don't want to end
up on sanitation duty.

Come in.

Odo?

Nerys.

I dropped by your office and Damar
told me you were here with her.

She was here, but
she's gone now.

You all right?

What did she want?

She didn't want anything.

Then what was she doing here?

I know how you
feel about her, Major,

but there's no reason
to be concerned.

You don't know how much
I wish I could believe that.

You didn't link
with her, did you?

Actually, I did.

You did?

What were you thinking?

She didn't find out
about the resistance

if that's why you're worried.

It's not.

The Link isn't about
exchanging information.

It's about merging thought
and form, idea and sensation.

That sounds like a perfect
way to manipulate someone.

She's not manipulating me.

Ever since the day
you two crossed paths,

she has lied to you,

tricked you,

stood in judgment of you.

I don't trust her.

I don't understand how you can.

I linked with her.

If she had any hidden
motive I would have sensed it.

She's just trying to
teach me about myself,

about what I'm
capable of becoming.

An intergalactic warlord, maybe?

Because that's what she is.

Who knows?

By linking with her, I might be
able to make her understand

that the Federation doesn't
pose a threat to her people.

You believe you can
convince her to call off the war?

If you could experience the Link,

you'd understand the
effect it has on my people.

You'd realize that
anything is possible.

I'm only beginning to
understand it all, myself.

I still have so many questions.

Now that she's here, I have a
chance to find some answers.

Odo, this isn't the time to go off
on some kind of personal quest.

There's too much at stake.

After the war is over,

do whatever you need to do.

If you feel you need to
go and join the Great Link,

I'm... I'm not
going to stop you.

But for right now,

I need you here... focused.

Please promise me

that you're not going
to link with her again.

Not until this is over.

All right.

I won't.

Now, if you'll excuse
me I have to get to work.

I'll see you at the
resistance meeting.

Are you two ever
going to be finished?

Just a few more minutes,
Commander.

That's "Captain."

It's an old naval tradition.
Whoever's in command of a ship

regardless of rank is
referred to as "Captain."

You mean, if I had to take command
I would be called "Captain," too?

Cadet, by the time
you took command

there'd be nobody
left to call you anything.

Good point.

Come to take a last look around?

Not a last look, I hope.

How are the repairs coming?

Almost done.

I wouldn't get too comfortable
in that chair, old man.

When this war is over I'm
going to want my ship back.

Fine. When this war's over
I'm going on a honeymoon.

All done here, Captain.

- Very well.
- All right.

Plot a course for
the Argolis Cluster

and prepare for departure.

Aye, Captain.

Benjamin...

I wish you were coming with us.

You'll do fine.

Pardon our appearance.
We're renovating.

Kanar.

Not that one.

The '27.

'27?

Expensive.

I can afford it...
on a Gul's salary.

Wait a minute.

You started a fight in my bar and
now you're getting a promotion?

What kind of way is
that to run an army?

Dukat wasn't happy
about what happened.

I had to find a way
to make it up to him.

I hope it was something big.

Let's just say...

It will change the
course of history.

As a businessman,

I'm very interested in
the course of history.

This one's on me.

Well, that's very
kind of you, Quark...

but I can't talk about it.

Of course.

I understand.

Here.

Let me pour you another.

There's obviously
a lot of bad blood

between the Cardassians
and the Jem'Hadar.

It wouldn't take much to get
them to go at each other again.

Yeah, I'm not sure
we want to do that.

But it worked so well.

What do you think, Odo?

I'm not sure it's a good idea.

- Then we'll do something else.
- Major...

Something that
we can all agree on.

Who could that be?

We're just sitting here
enjoying each other's company.

Right.

Come in.

Brother...

are you all right?

No, I am not all right.

I just shared a bottle
of kanar with Damar.

That rhymes.

You're drunk.

Of course I'm drunk.

I wouldn't risk coming in here

and associating myself
with your little resistance cell

if I wasn't drunk.

Oh, well then maybe you'd better
leave before someone sees you.

I tried.

I tried my best

to run my establishment
under this occupation.

But you know what? It's no fun.

I don't like Cardassians.

They're mean and arrogant.

And I can't stand the Jem'Hadar.

They're creepy.

They just stand there
like statues staring at you.

That's it.

I don't want to spend the rest of my
life doing business with these people.

I want the Federation back.

I want to sell root beer again.

All right.
You made your point. Relax.

How can I relax

when there are thousands
of Jem'Hadar ships

sitting on the other
side of the wormhole

waiting to come through?

Don't worry about it.
They're stuck there.

Not if what Damar
told me is true.

What are you talking about?

He said he came up with a
way to deactivate the mines.

Dukat wants him to
start field tests right away.

Come on, Quark, think.

Did Damar say anything
about how he was planning

to deactivate the mines?

Yes.

He said something
about the station's...

defector.

- Defector?
- That's impossible.

The only person on the station who
knows anything about the mines is...

Me.

Defector.
That doesn't sound right.

Maybe it was... deflector?

Yeah. Yeah, that's it.

He said something
about using the station's...

deflector array.

What do you think, Rom?

I'm glad it wasn't me.

About the deflector array.

Is there any way to use
it to deactivate the mines?

No.

I designed the mines
to be self-replicating.

The only way to keep them
from replacing themselves

is to isolate them in
an anti-graviton beam.

The deflector
array can't do that.

Unless...

you reconfigured
the field generators

and refocused the emitters

which would turn
the deflector array

into one big anti-graviton beam.

Why didn't you think of that
when you set up the mine field?

Uh, I don't know.

Uh, he doesn't know.

Quark.

How can we disable
the deflector array?

All you have to do is
access the EPS feed

and overload the waveguide.

All right, let's do it.

But there's no way
to get to the EPS feed.

It's in a secured conduit
rigged with alarms.

Odo, can you
disable those alarms?

I can take them off-line
for about five minutes

if I run a security diagnostic.

- Will that give you enough time?
- I think so.

I'll run the diagnostic

as soon as I get to my
office in the morning.

All right.

You and I will meet here.

At exactly 0800 you
will begin the diagnostic.

Has there been any news, sir?

None.

The Defiant has been
gone over 16 hours.

Mr. Worf,

I know this is
difficult for you.

Yes, sir.

But I sense it is
more difficult for you.

The Defiant is your ship.

Dax'll bring her home.

Besides there's no way she's
going to miss her own wedding.

No, I suppose not.

As soon as I hear
anything, I'll let you know.

Thank you, sir. Captain...

You should get some rest.

Not tonight, Mr. Worf.

Not tonight.

Ben?

- Admiral.
- It's late.

I know. I was just waiting
to see if there was any news.

Ben, we've got a big
day ahead of us tomorrow.

I want to nail down the
details on the Bolian operation.

- I need you focused.
- I will be.

I know how you
feel about your crew,

but you and I are responsible
for an entire tactical wing.

Thousands of lives depend on
the decisions we make tomorrow.

You can't afford to be awake
all night worrying about one ship.

Admiral, you can
order me to my quarters,

but there's no way
I'm going to sleep.

Not as long as the
Defiant is out there.

All right, as you wish...

But you should
understand one thing.

With any luck, we'll be sending
the Defiant on a lot of missions

and you're going to
have to get used to it.

Good night.

Have our people always
been shape-shifters?

Or was there a time when
we were like the solids?

Eons ago, we were like them,

limited to one form, but then...

we evolved.

Ah...

On the homeworld are
you always in the Link

or do you sometimes
take solid form?

We prefer the Link

but, on occasion, it is interesting
to exist as something else,

a tree perhaps...

a cloud in the sky.

Ah... a cloud.

How many of us are there?

Oh... so many questions, Odo.

I'm sorry but there's still so
much that isn't clear to me yet.

If you link with me again
everything will be made clear to you.

You have to understand

that the Link is very
overwhelming for me.

Right now, it's easier to talk.

But words are so clumsy,
so imprecise.

Even so.

As you wish.

You haven't told me your name.

What use would I
have for a name?

To differentiate
yourself from the others.

I don't.

But you are a separate
being, aren't you?

In a sense.

When you return to the Link,

what will become of the entity

I'm talking to right now?

The drop becomes the ocean.

And if you choose to
take solid form again?

The ocean becomes a drop.

Ah...

Yes.

I think I'm beginning
to understand.

Then you can answer
your own question.

How many of us are there?

One. And many.

It depends on
how you look at it.

Very good.

You are beginning to understand.

But there's so much
you don't know.

Tell me.

Oh.

Words are insufficient.

Link with me again.

It is the only way I can give
you the understanding you seek.

I can't.

Why not?

I promised Kira.

She is a solid.

This has nothing to do with her.

This is about you,
about what you want.

- Am I early?
- A little.

I hope there's more than
just fruit in that basket.

I needed a place
to hide my tools.

In case anybody asks,
I'm making a delivery.

Right.

Here's your fruit.

I didn't order any fruit.

Oh, your brother
sent this didn't he?

If he is trying to win me over,
tell him it's just not going to work.

Better yet, I'll
tell him myself.

Odo should be in
his office by now.

Now.

Remember, he's going to
interrupt the sensor alarms

at exactly 0800 hours.

I'll be ready.

If there's a problem,
I'll contact you.

Good luck with your delivery.

Computer, time.

0700 hours, 58 minutes.

Two minutes to go.

Odo.

Kira to Odo. Please respond.

Kira to Odo.

Odo, answer me.

Computer, time.

0700 hours, 59 minutes.

Hello, Major.

Just the person
I was looking for.

Congratulations
on your promotion,

but we'll have to discuss the
personnel report another time.

We'll discuss it now.

I don't think so.

Kira to Rom.
Don't open that hatch.

I already did.

Get out of there.

Intruder alert. Come with me.

Well, well...

what do we have here?

Captain's Log,
Tactical Update, Stardate 51149.5.

The Defiant has
returned to Starbase 375

after its successful attack
on the Dominion sensor array.

Admiral Ross and I
have recommended

that Commander Dax
and the entire Defiant crew

be cited for exceptional
performance of their duties.

Admiral on deck!

Carry on.

Nog, Saurian
brandy for the brass.

Dax, could you tell Ensign Kirby

how I took over the con
when Lieutenant Haj was injured?

She doesn't believe me.

Frankly, I'm not sure I
believe it happened myself.

Sir. Sir.

- Congratulations, Captain.
- Thank you, sir.

Will you excuse me a minute?

- Julian needs me.
- Certainly.

Here you are.

Don't ask where he got it.

Don't worry.
I don't want to know.

Here's another one, Captain.

Take a good look...

because this says
something about us,

that we're willing to fight

and that we'll keep on fighting
until we can't fight anymore.

Yes, sir!

You don't throw
something like this away.

No, sir!

Hear, hear.

They're a good crew.

The best.

What do you say
we get back to work?

What the hell happened?

Why didn't you
disable that alarm?

It's difficult to explain.

Rom is sitting in a holding
cell being interrogated.

He was counting on you.
I was counting on you!

- I know.
- You know?

Do you realize
what you just did?

You just handed the Alpha
Quadrant to the Dominion.

I was in the Link.

Are you saying you forgot?

I didn't forget.

It just... didn't
seem to matter.

A lot of people
are going to die.

Don't you care?

It has nothing to do with me.

How can you say that?

If you could experience the Link,

you'd know why
nothing else matters.

The last five years,

your life here, our friendship,

none of that matters?

It did... once.

I wish I could make you
understand, but you can't.
