Star Trek: Voyager: The 37's
According to Wikipedia, the Milky Way Galaxy is about 100,000 light years in diameter, and an average 1000 light years thick. Doing the math, that puts the Delta Quadrant (¼ of the Milky Way) at a volume of a bit under 2 trillion cubic light years. And, in that staggering volume, Voyager, which is 343 meters in length, comes across a truck (truck-sized), specifically a 1936 Ford pickup. Which can still start on the first try. And that's not the least likely thing that they'll find that day...
Star Trek: Voyager: Jetrel
Say what you will about Neelix--he's irritating, bossy, inappropriately possessive and jealous of Kes--but you have to admit this: he had a bad war. A really, really bad war.
Star Trek: Voyager: Cathexis
The Monsters Are Due on Maple StreetUSS Voyager
Star Trek: Voyager: State of Flux
Starfleet captains hate this crewmember's one weird old trick for escaping the Delta Quadrant--their true identity will shock you! (Or not.)
Star Trek: Voyager: Emanations
Some bright morning when this life is over, I'll beam away/
To that home in the Next Emanation, I'll beam away/
I'll beam away, oh glory/
I'll beam away, in the morning/
When I die, Hallelujah by and by/
I'll beam away
Star Trek: Voyager: Eye of the Needle
Voyager discovers a wormhole that may lead to the Alpha Quadrant; could this be the way home? [checks Memory Alpha; it's the seventh episode of the first season of seven] Hmm...
Star Trek: Voyager: Phage
This episode starts off with a very sitcommy bit about Neelix's cooking (which will become a recurring bit), but takes a very hard left turn into horror with the introduction of a strong contender for the title of Trek's Nastiest Villains, the Vidiians.
Star Trek: Voyager: Parallax
Voyager investigates a quantum... singularity... thingy. As you do. The real urgent question is, is B'Elanna going to spend the rest of the series in the brig? Plus, the Doctor is being a little short with his patients.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: What You Leave Behind
(Series Finale - Part 9 of 9) "To the best crew any captain ever had. This may be the last time we're all together... but no matter what the future holds, no matter how far we travel a part of us... a very important part--will always remain here... on Deep Space Nine." -- Benjamin Lafayette Sisko.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Extreme Measures*
(Series Finale - Part 7 of 9**) [cover showing Bashir and O'Brien wearing jumpsuits and carrying complicated, incomprehensible pieces of tech; in the background, a brain surrounded by Kirby Dots] The fate of the entire galaxy*** at stake! Bashir and O'Brien brave the hidden depths of the dying mind of the deadliest man in the Federation in a desperate gambit to cure Odo! COULD THIS BE THE END OF... THE EPIC SPACE BROS?!?
*not this movie
**not that Seven of Nine
***well, a big chunk of it, anyway
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: When It Rains...
...it pours... plot twists. The Klingons hold the key to victory over the Dominion, and a canny and judicious leader could use that to hold them at bay until the entire Alliance was ready to join them; unfortunately, the Empire has Gowron. Kira changes her clothes and Garak makes a call. Dukat finds out that when the Pah-wraiths say "for the Kai's eyes only", they mean it. And the only cure for someone's fever (not the sexy kind) isn't more cowbell, and Bashir and O'Brien have to go to the last people (ostensibly) on their side who they want to see to get it. (Series Finale - Part 5 of 9)
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Strange Bedfellows
(Series Finale - Part 3 of 9) Unfortunately, despite the title, not a bedroom farce (with the deliberate exception of The Power Couple Who Shall Not Be Named), but still plenty to chew on: Martok reveals to Sisko that the real war has just begun, a prisoner is a pain in the neck for Weyoun, Quark pours one out for a homie, Damar considers the man in the mirror (prior to asking him to change his ways), Winn does a heel/even-worse-heel turn, and Worf and Ezri? They're just hangin' out.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Penumbra
(Series Finale - Part 1 of 9) Sisko puts a ring on it, Worf gets a chance to practice his singing, Dax takes a trip down Memory Lane, the Founder gives Weyoun a piece of her mind, a familiar face gets a different look, a new player enters the game, and Kasidy Yates' future mother-in-law has some bad news. It's the beginning of the end.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Badda-Bing, Badda-Bang
Pretty much everything you need to know about the episode right here:
"Bashir, the drink-doctorer,
Nog, the safecracker,
Dax, the cocktail waitress,
Odo, the bag-man,
Kira, the decoy,
Sisko, the high-roller,
Yates, the victim,
and, of course, Vic.
(O'Brien, the falsely-accused patsy, is not present as he is being strip-searched)"
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Field of Fire
"Well, ClariceEzri - have the lambs stopped screaming?"
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Prodigal Daughter
A missing Chief O'Brien, a dead woman with Orion Syndicate connections, and a very dysfunctional family all combine to raise one compelling, urgent question: will Ezri get a halfway-decent character arc before the series ends?
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Covenant
HELP WANTED: Growing Pah-wraith cult looking for a dynamic, charismatic leader to lead it into communion with the Pah-wraiths in the Celestial Temple. Belief in the ultimate triumph of the Pah-wraiths over the Prophets necessary, actual experience being possessed by a Pah-wraith preferred. Flexible morals OK. Please note: we are an equal opportunity employer, so it is not necessary for you to be a Bajoran. Please direct inquiries and resumes to: provisional government, Empok Nor.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Once More Unto the Breach
I know thee not, old man: fall to thy prayers;
How ill white hairs become a fool and jester!
I have long dream'd of such a kind of man,
So surfeit-swell'd, so old, and so profane;
But, being awaked, I do despise my dream.
Make less thy body hence, and more thy grace;
Leave gormandizing; know the grave doth gape
For thee thrice wider than for other men.
--From the works of the greatest playwright of the Klingon Empire, William Shakespeare
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Chrysalis
The Jack Pack is back! And this time they're there to prompt Dr. Bashir to attempt a cure for Sarina's near-catatonia. I'm sure that everything will go fine and that, especially, we won't see a repeat of "Melora" in which Bashir has a problem with keeping a strict firewall between his professional responsibilities and personal needs... damnit, Julian.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Afterimage
There's talk on the street; it sounds so familiar/Great expectations, everybody's watching you/People you meet, they all seem to know you/Even your old friends treat you like you're something new/Ezri come lately, the new kid in town/Everybody loves you, so don't let them down...
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Image in the Sand
Three months have passed, and Kira's a colonel, Worf is sad, Damar is hittin' the sauce, the Prophets are MIA, the Pah-wraiths have their own cult, the Romulans are acting oddly friendly, and Sisko's still washing clams. What do the Romulans really want, who's that woman from Sisko's vision, who's the other woman who seems to know Sisko even though he's never met her, will Jadzia make it to Sto'Vo'Kor, and what's up with the baseball?
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Sound of Her Voice
The crew of the Defiant get to know a marooned Starfleet captain over subspace radio as they race against time to save her life... but they get a surprise once they reach her. And Quark struggles to answer the really important question about Kira and Odo's relationship: how does he make a profit off of it?
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Profit and Lace
When an unexpected development shakes up the Ferengi government, Quark has to... I mean, he decides... folks, I'm sorry. This is just the worst episode. I really can't think of anything clever or cute to put here, I could barely make it through the episode as it was. Sorry. No, I'm not sorry; this one made "Move Along Home" look like "The Visitor." Sheesh.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Reckoning
It's too bad that DS9 has already used the titles "Armageddon Game" and "Apocalypse Rising", because that's what happens in this episode, for real this time; it starts with Sisko taking a gander at a dusty old tablet, and ends up with two ancient enemies getting it on like Donkey Kong.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: In the Pale Moonlight
When you dance with the devil in the pale moonlight... the devil always leads.
Movie: Don't Breathe
A group of friends break into the house of a wealthy blind man, thinking they'll get away with the perfect heist. They're wrong.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Wrongs Darker Than Death or Night
You might think that it wouldn't be possible to hate Dukat any more than you already do, because you already hate him with the hate of ten thousand burning suns, but ask yourself: are those suns supernovas? Well, they are now. [TW: rape]
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Honor Among Thieves
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Far Beyond the Stars
And now for something really different: for the first time anywhere, an adaptation of a long-lost work by the tragic and underappreciated African-American SF author and Afrofuturist pioneer Benny Russell, a story considered so controversial at the time of its writing that it was completely suppressed by its publisher: "Deep Space Nine"!
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Waltz
Dukat is back, and he seems positively conciliatory toward Sisko, especially when they're marooned on a planet together. But is he telling the truth about their situation, and are they really alone?
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Statistical Probabilities
Bashir gets a visit from The Dream Teamthe Jack Pack, a group of genetically-enhanced savants who are capable of rapid and stunningly accurate assessments of the Dominion threat. But what does he do when they predict that the Federation will lose the war?
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Favor the Bold
OK, you know how, when you think you've found the right person, you just can't get enough of them? And you totally lose track of time in their arms? And all your friends are like, hey, where have you been, and you try to tell them that this is the one, man, and they just don't get it? And then you realize that one of them is going to get executed because you didn't do your part to resist the invading aliens? OK, maybe not so much the last part, but that's Odo's deal. Also, Sisko & Co. prepare to retake the station.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Sons and Daughters
Temporarily assigned to the IKS Rotarran, Worf is shocked to discover that one of the new crew members is his son, Alexander Rozhenko; so is the rest of Trek fandom, because the kid is only about eight in Earth years. (I mean, the Jem'Hadar grow to maturity in days, and the all-time Trek precocity champ is probably the resurrected Spock, but still.) And, against all odds, Dukat manages to be even creepier.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: A Time To Stand
In the first episode of the six-part "Station Occupation" arc, Jake learns the limits of freedom of the press under the Dominion, Dukat creeps on Kira (big shock), Odo balances being a god and a cop, Quark looks on the bright side of life, and the exiled Federation crew (plus Garak) execute a plan that's so crazy, it's gotta work--or does it? Plus, special bonus July 4th surprise!
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: In the Cards
Sisko, J. and Nog [NFI], "The Acquisition of Unique Artifacts in a Post-Monetary Society: A Case Study", The Journal of Deep-Space Studies, Stardate 50929.4, v. 47:9, pp. 1701a-e.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Blaze of Glory
Do you hear the people sing?
Singing the song of angry men?
It is the music of the people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Soldiers of the Empire
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Ties of Blood and Water
Kira gets an offer of help from an exiled Cardassian, but finds herself challenged both by his past deeds... and by her own. Plus: Ol' Blue Eyes is back! (No, no that one. Not him, either.)
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: A Simple Investigation
Things are rarely simple when love and crime get mixed up, as a certain changeling cop who's about to get entangled in a 24th-century version of one of his crime novels is about to find out. (Spoilers for a 1952 movie below the cut.)
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: By Inferno's Light
IT'S ON NOW. A Dominion fleet pours through the wormhole, friends and enemies change alliances, Worf is in the fight(s) of his life, Garak battles against time and his worst enemy, Dukat gets a new job, and the infiltrator aboard the station puts their second and deadlier plan into motion, with the fate of Deep Space Nine, Bajor, the Federation, and the Alpha Quadrant at stake.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: For the Uniform
One day more,
Another day, another destiny,
This never ending road to Calvary;
These men who seem to know my crime
Will surely come a second time,
One day more...
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Darkness and the Light
Someone's killing off the members of Kira's former resistance cell, one by one, and apparently saving her for last... but she's one mean mother(-to-be).
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Ascent
If Quark and Odo are to survive, they'll have to depend on each other as they climb... into thin air.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Let He Who Is Without Sin...
Some of the crew are taking some R&R on the planet that's the Club Med of the Alpha Quadrant. What could possibly go wrong? Risa, meet Worf.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Assignment
A new enemy appears on DS9, with a familiar face, and O'Brien has to figure out not only what they want, but why.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Looking for par'Mach in All the Wrong Places
Well, I spent stardates lookin' for you/
Quark's Bar and holodeck lovers were never true/
Playin' a petaQ's game, hopin' to win/
Tellin' those dishonorable lies and losin' again...
(it sounds better in the original tlhIngan)
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Apocalypse Rising
Awesome metal band name or daring undercover raid into the heart of the Klingon Empire? You decide!
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Body Parts
Quark is a dead man. No, wait, he's not. Well, then again...
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: To the Death
Weyoun! DS9 adds to its already-impressive list of recurring characters with yet another Jeffrey Combs portrayal. And there are also a bunch of rebel Jem'Hadar trying to activate an ancient gateway, fate of the galaxy at stake, working with the enemy, etc. The important thing is, Weyoun.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Muse
A mysterious woman helps Jake write a novel; Lwaxana Troi, pregnant with a son, asks Odo to help her escape her husband.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Hard Time
O'Brien was forced to endure a virtual-reality simulation of twenty years in prison in a matter of hours, a sentence which he insists was solitary confinement--so why does he keep seeing a hallucination of an alien? [TW: suicide]
