Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSisko notes the names of some of the officers whom he served with on the U.S.S. Okinawa: Daneeka, McWatt, Snowden, Orr, and Moodus. All of these are the names of characters in Joseph Heller's book "Catch 22".
- GoofsJoseph Sisko says he has a pot of crayfish, but says "cray fish." A New Orleans native, even in the future, would have pronounced the word with the Southern dialect, "craw fish".
- Quotes
Lt. Commander Worf: Our gods are dead. Ancient Klingon warriors slew them a millennia ago. They were more trouble than they were worth.
Major Kira: I don't think I'll ever understand Klingons.
Chief O'Brien: Don't worry about it, Major. Nobody does. It's the way they like it.

The only time you should be in bed is...
Sisko is appointed head of security on Earth.
This is a good episode that sets up the plot well for part 2.
The writers develop a good sense of paranoia and at the same give us quality time with the Sisko family's Louisiana heritage. Joseph Sisko is important to the plot and is nicely played by Brock Peters.
I like the way it portrays the difficulty of governing when there is an external threat. This theme gets more compelling as the story unfolds and it finishes with you wanting to know what happens next.
All the visuals and Earth scenes are well done and the performances are solid.
The character of the President of the Federation is unfortunately written a bit too weak considering the scope of his power.
It's a 7.5/10 for me but I round upwards.
