Setting up and tricking both the Obsidian Order and the Tal'Shiar... now that's chilling.

I love the look on Tain's face when he is told there are 150 ships comming at him. Its the best "oh shit" look ever.

The end when Garek thinks he is about to die is one of a handful of honest Garek moments.

Section 31, still the best, no one knows they even exist.

@redcardinalist Shielding doesn't matter. Jem'Hadar have always been stupidly powerful. Galaxy and D'Deridex class ships are effectively dreadnaughts and you get hammered by those little things.

@Tetsujinhanmaa

Ahh but the Galaxy ship in question didn't have any effective shields when figthing those JH ships :)

[Tetsujinhanmaa]

@redcardinalist Yeah, no. 3 Jem'Hadar fighters took or a Galaxy class starship (Enterprise- D). A Romulan warbird is equivalent to a Galaxy class. my money's on the Jem'Hadar. The only reason the Defiant pwns all is because its designed to fight Borg.

[redcardinalist]

Personally, given their size and power, I'd back Romulan warbirds against Jem Hadar warships anytime, even if the are 150 of them :)

Simple they upgraded the tech over time. After all in a century car engines went from 15 miles an hour at top speed to over 150 miles at top speed.

IT'S A TRAP!

I'm personally convinced that Odo and Garak were in no real, 'absolute' danger, in the Runabout. If the Founder gave him the ship, the Vorta and Jem'Hadar would've been under orders to never destroy it, nevermind that such would've been the basic understanding anyway, with a Changeling aboard.

[VampireYoshi]

@mcgeenl Yes and no. They doubtless expected such a group to exist, for any Solid nation, and doubtless had steps to prevent it...regularly. It was Odo who did not expect the Federation to behave in such a way, and was initially infected.
