“Our Man Bashir” (S04E10, Stardate 49300.7) is a blast. It takes the trope of malfunctioning holodeck and turns it on it head while giving us a fantastic homage to classic spy films. It is a standalone episode that holds up to repeated viewings and offers little to complain about.

I like to think that, as in most real-world liberation struggles, there were multiple different ideological factions in the Bajoran Resistance; so there were the religiously inspired ones and the secular nationalist ones, and the socialist ones, and the anarchist ones, and the ones belonging to various specific ethnic groups, and they all kind of hated each other but they mostly left their rivalries for later while focusing on throwing out the Cardassians.

Anyways, Shaxs was definitely with one of the more communistic of them.

“Paradise Lost” (S04E12, Stardate Unknown) finishes strong, with Layton serving as the real villain of the story. It serves as a real window into what people in the here and now might do in a similar situation to seize control. And it asks the question: What would you do to protect Paradise?

My episode poster for boiled down to the simple idea of destroying paradise to save it. How better to show that than to tarnish the emblem of the Feferation?

Anyways, you can tell how old I am from the fact that my go-to examples for good and bad redemption arcs are Damar and Spike, respectively.
