Aye. It’s also interesting when you see his conversation with Worf about refusing the resignation. Sisko openly states that he’s not sure what’s wise, that he doesn’t have some grand plan, but that he needs every good officer he can get right now, and Worf is one. I kinda feel like Picard, in that situation, would give a bit of a speech about it, trying to inspire Worf into being proud of the uniform, trying to talk him out of it instead of just saying “No, you’re too useful right now”. And this isn’t a slam against either captain. They just have different styles. Picard wants to inspire from on high, with poise, presence and authority. Sisko gets down in the dirt with his subordinates, not having as much pretense about grand plans or moral stands, but treating them like equals that he happens to be in charge of. Sisko turned Worf into a great leader. But he needed a great officer to do that, and that’s what Picard turned Worf into.

One of the things I love about this scene is that it really shows off Marc Alaimo's ability to make Dukat sound like Garak - they share speech patterns, vocabulary, etc. It makes it feel as though Cardassians share a common culture. I think Alaimo and Robinson pulled this off really well - they allowed Dukat and Garak to be very much their own characters, but also gave them a common template to draw from so viewers never forgot they were of the same race.

Sisko: "Forget the speech, Dukat..." Dukat: "You do understand, and grasp the importance of monologue and soliloquy in Cardassian culture, and to stymie a good speech well-spoken is..." Sisko: "All right, we're going home. Let the Klingons have 'em."

I'm going to try and put this to bed so bare with me. The writers didn't screw up, Worf lied. The Enterprise used a cloaking device to pass through solid rock after the same device malfunctioned and killed the USS Pegasus' crew. Along with the rest of the Enterprise, Worf was sworn to secrecy regarding the project, so when Sisco asks him "is everything alright" his immediate response was "yes." Knowing Sisco won't buy this, he contradicts himself before Sisko has the chance and tries to cover his unease with a false truth. I think a previous comment said it best. "I've never been on a federation ship with a (safe) cloaking device."

The Pegasus didn't have a cloak, it had a phasing unit.

Picard knew that Pressman was being a "Rules Lawyer" and trying to work a "Rules as Written" angle that wouldn't fly with the Romulans which would complain that it violated the "Rules as Intended". This being said, in the most technical sense, Worf was correct when he said he hadn't been on a Federation ship with a cloak.

I know that Dukat was meant to be portrayed as slimy for switching sides during the coup on Cardassia but in my opinion, it was justified since Central Command threw him under the bus during the debut of the Maquis and blamed him for having weapons sent to Cardassian colonists in the DMZ since they unfairly blamed him for the failure of the Occupation of Bajor. Therefore, he had no reason to remain loyal to those who stabbed him in the back so he simply returned the favour plus he wanted to live both out of a sense of self preservation and to continue serving Cardassia.

Agreed. Dukat privately believed the civilian government was a bad idea, and was burned for supporting a movement he didn't believe in. And Dukat's beliefs were proven right, when the civilian government all but capitulated to the Klingons, leaving the Cardassian Empire a withered husk. Dukat only fucked up when he allied with the Dominion in a desperate gamble. It should have been clear to any Cardassian, Dukat included, that an alliance with the Dominion meant slow annexation by the Dominion. Dukat was simply too high on his own pride, wanting to be the savior that would restore Cardassia.

@Thelondonbadger You can make the argument that it's better to live a slave then die free. But no Cardassian signed onto the alliance with that understanding. And no Cardassian would have accepted that line of reasoning either. The Cardassians aren't liberal utilitarians like the Federation. They believe in the glory of Cardassia as an empire, and are willing to fight for their empire. The well being of Cardassia is what's most important to them. Any humanitarian concerns about odds or numbers of people lost would be irrelevant to them, what matters is the continued existence and prosperity of Cardassia. For them, that's the only reason to sign that treaty. If they realized the Dominion had no intention of keeping that end of the bargain, no Cardassian, not Dukat or anyone, would have accepted that treaty.

I see some of you confusing the Dominion's relationship with Cardassia in the later stages of the War with what it was in the beginning. Dukat oversaw the inclusion of Cardassia into the Dominion. They had Dominion security because they were part of Dominion. They were not a servile puppet state, they were part of the fold. It was only after the loss of DS9 and their fleet in the wormhole that the relationship began to change. And as the war dragged on, the deficiency of the Cardassian military became more apparent and necessitated more direct Dominion control and the addition of other ally states like the Breen. And it's clear that the Founders were not impressed with Dukat's successors in terms of their abilities to achieve victories. The Cardassians were becoming more of a liability than a contributing member of the Dominion. Had the Prophets not interfered and that Dominion fleet been able to come through the wormhole, Cardassia would not have been put in a position where its weakness were so dramatically exposed and the Founders would not have seen the need to keep moving them further and further down the ladder of importance.

I never took that as an aspect of him being an alien and more as him speaking on a clear and frank manner because that's what Klingons do. Klingons wouldn't really be given to casual speech.

When miles asked word what about his son, Worf’s facial expression was just “my what?? Oh? That’s right I have a son, I guess.”

4:28 Just realized that the weapons officer is Patricia Tallman, Lyta Alexander from B5. Did some research and she's been an extra on other episodes of the Star Trek franchise. "But first, the 1975 native of Pontiac, Ill., and Carnegie-Mellon theatre arts graduate was seen uncreedited as the Ennis warriorNima on DS9’s “Battleground” and featured as Kiros the Arkarian terrorist in TNG’s “Starship Mine.” Tallman also was on camera in an uncredited role as Dr. Bashir’s Bajoran nurse Tagana in several episodes of DS9-much less dozens of stunt doubling for guest stars or extra work across TNG, DS9 and Voyager as well." Who knew?

I’m gonna go watch this episode again. One of the best! All hail, Worf!

Loved in this series how star fleet always tried to help people

Kira may have certain command-related (and urgency-related) leeway with regards to bursting unannounced into a meeting in the station commander's office, but Worf clearly hadn't been dismissed before he ran off.

...I watched Dukat's 'Character Arc" He truly did love his world and when the Klingons messed it up..A Lot...he went with the Dominion..forgetting that it was the Dominion that started the Klingon War...he became an abused, misused character..because He only wanted the best for his world.

I think we can all agree that the relationship between Sisko and Dukat is one of the most complex and greatest in the entire StarTrek Verse: They’re not actual enemies, they’d never admit that they were friends, but the undeniable respect that they have for one another is what drives their relationship forward.

“I have never been on a Federation starship that had a cloaking device.” Ah, yes you have. When the _Enterprise_ salvaged the illegal cloaking device from the wreck of the _Pegasus,_ installed it, and used it to escape from inside an asteroid.

that was not a typical cloaking device rather a phase device that would allow the ship to phase to allow it to go through solid matter. A cloaking device does not allow you to pass through matter like that.

mdhofstee They consistently referred to it as a cloaking device throughout the episode, and also made it clear that its nature as a cloak was the reason it was illegal, which in turn was the source of all the episode’s dramatic tension. Nor does Worf qualify that he’s never been on a Starfleet ship with “a typical cloaking device” here.

Michael Timothy If Worf and the other _Enterprise_ officers are under a gag order-and remember, Picard deliberately decloaked in front of a warbird in order to make a coverup impossible-he would have said nothing unless directly asked. Had Sisko said “Ever been on a Starfleet ship with a cloaking device before?” then Worf would have had to say “No.” But assuming Sisko doesn’t know about the _Pegasus_ affair, for Worf to volunteer this lie would only arouse suspicion: _Well of course you haven’t; this is the only one . . . isn’t it?_

@koshi6505

I don't think he even meant that. He actually wanted to complain about serving with a Romulan, but knew that it would be an inappropriate remark.

"What further use could I be here?" "Well, if I ever need to murder the Klingon supreme leader, I have a feeling you'll come in handy"

that's Patricia Tallman, far out.

Cardassians were very wise. They knew very well that nobody in entire universe liked them nor willingly wanted to do anything with them. But they also knew that in general scheme of things in universe they cannot be ignored and it is better to have them as allies then as enemies. And they played that extremely well each and every single time.

You know Worf could just not be counting a one time thing to get out of a sticky situation. As opposed to the Defiant having one as standard equipment that they use whenever.

'And if the Klingons try to stop us?' 'The i will be there to reason with them......in the Defiant'

I like all the different species present in one scene, so to speak

He has been on a federation ship with a cloaking device. In TNG...

Little does Sisko know that there's a Vorlon maximum death weapon on board!

Lucky for the Klingons Patricia Tallman's only a stuntwoman on DS9

Everyone is talking about the Enterprise using the phase cloak. The Enterprise didn't have a cloak, the Pegasus had the cloak. The Enterprise used it once then destroyed it, it didn't have a cloak, it borrowed one.

Ah Worf, father of the year.

"What about your son?" "The franchise just doesn't have the budget to add him in as a main character"

One of the greatest shows ever made 😊

God this series was something special. DS9 is best Trek!

Aah, Patricia Tallman (Lyta Alexander-B5) looks good in a Federation uniform.

O'Brien: "What about your son?" Worf: "I haven't paid attention to him in years, why start now?"

I just realized that's Lyta operating the cloak. She must be taking a break from the shadow wars.

I dunno... I kind of miss the Dukat who was *almost* an ally, an anti-hero of sorts. The Dukat of "Explorers", "Way of the Warrior", "Indiscretion", "Return to Grace" and "Apocalypse Rising".

Lyta Alexander undercover in DS9? Wow!

he's back!

I love the different way Worf talks when he's trying to convince himself of what he's saying.

Leeta Alexander ended up joining Starfleet after being kicked off Babylon 5.

Damn. If Sisko had unleashed the human WMD operating the cloaking device in this video, the Dominion war would have been over in a week.

Awesome video!

Worf kinda disappointed me briefly. Despite his choices and shortcomings, he always owned it. This scene showed his Achilles heel by wanting to run away when he had to face the outcome of those choices. Thankfully Captain Sisko was able to reach him through the art of Duty and guilt.

+Humble Opinion 43 Samurai At the time Dorn was basically thrown into DS9 at the last moment, and scripts are lacking at the moment. It will take up to halfway this season before the writers are able to -right- write specifically for the Worf character, instead of forcing Worf upon roles / dialogue intended for other characters. They will figure it out, I consider the DS9 story-line and way of production to be more suitable for Worf, although Dorn probably had way more fun during the TNG production.

Everyone has moments in life where they fall. Times where you're unsure of who you are and what you're doing. I felt that stayed with Worf throughout DS9. He finally found purpose in Jadzia, but then she died. I feel bad for his character. I wonder if he'll make a cameo in the new Picard series.

To be fair, he lost a great deal and was pretty much exiled from the Klingon Empire and suddenly, most Klingons thought he was scum once again. This time, it was due to a choice he made conceived because of his principles and personal code of honour.
