TEX-TREK Mission 329: STAR TREK: DS9's "The Assignment" Back-Trekking Retrospective
This week we are diving back into the shadows of DS9 for a Keiko-centric thriller! The season 5 episode, "The Assignment," doesn't get talked about much, but it has a lot to offer. Join us as we discuss the eerie dynamics of Rosalind Chao playing her own hostage, the ominous reveal of the Pah-wraiths, O'Brien's psychological tension, and Rom once again showing how great of a guy he can be. Stan from Salon Trek joins Taylor and Fatheree as the guest this week.
As always, available in both video and audio-only formats.
