HRH The KING 0 Posted June 5, 2005 After "The Wounded", this was another episode that would eventually lead to DS9. It introduced Ensign Ro who as I'm sure you are all aware was to move onto DS9. She was a good character, but IMO Major Kira was far superior and it added extra depth to Deep Space Nine to have the first officer as a former Bajoran freedom fighter. An episode that first mentioned the history of the Bajorans and the Cardassians. Not a great episode, but glorious things would follow. Rating = 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
youbroughtheryouRiker 2 Posted January 25, 2008 Giving it a 4. Forbes does a great job in this one, as does Patrick Stewart. The writing was a little chee-z at the end, but it was still quite good. Enjoyed it a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When Ro starts getting all misty-eyed and emo, I feel a yawn coming on. Edited January 26, 2008 by SeeingEyeBorg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dabo Queen 0 Posted January 28, 2008 Five from me...I liked not having to hear the Bajorans whine about the Prophets after watching them for so long on DS-9. Also, I love love LOVE Michelle Forbes as Ro Laren...it breaks my heart that we could've watched seven seasons of her instead of Major Kira, but she turned down the role.
