Please keep it nice while discussing the morality of the actions of Sisko and Garak. ;-)

  • @Azakhiel That's really Sisko and DS9 in a nutshell - shades of grey. With Picard and Kirk, they were both clearly moral to a fault... Janeway and Archer both had morality that changed like the hands on a clock.

    Sisko was the only one with real nuance and I think this episode is his finest hour... totally at odds with the original Roddenbury ideal of the enlightened and selfless humanity he initially imagined but fantastic, nonetheless.

  • What I have always like is how Sisko just accepts what he has done. He does not justify it(ie.. I needed to do it to save my crew/ship etc) or make excuces ( I had no choice) like other Captians in Star Trek. He just says " I lied, cheated and am an accessory to murder, and I can live with that".

    No IT'S REAAAL!

  • Just another day in the public service children

  • IT'S A FAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!!!

  • I was half expecting him to light up a cigg (or Rizan FunDoobie) just before he deleted that recording.

  • In war, nothing is more honorable than winning. Sisko and Garak did the right thing.

  • @Ikarosus Ah, I get you. Well yeah, I guess that makes sense in a 'karmic' sense.

  • @TheRWJJ Im not complaining, or defending Siskos behavior. I just think of what happened as kind of poetic universal justice.

  • @Ikarosus Would have to disagree with you there, friend. The whole point of Ds9 was to break away from the 'golden boy' image of the Federation and to show a more mature, ugly side to the Star Trek universe. Hence Sisko was was developed into more of an 'anti-hero', a far more in depth character with human flaws and is not immune to the events surrounding him. It was the only way to make Ds9 compelling and maintain a strong linear story over several seasons.

  • @TheRWJJ Batman is actualy the last one, who wouldthink like that.Yeah, Im nerd.

    Even though Im against "let just kill them all", or "smaller evil, to get things moving" kind of acts, I think romulan guy had it coming. Romulan rulers acted like selfish, greedy, manipulative assholes so much, even towards their own people, that it was about damm time, to do move their asses and do something for usefull.
