Stardate 49904.2 Returning from a mission aboard the Defiant, Commander Sisko (Avery Brooks) discovers that the station has undergone an assault from the Jem' Hadar. Giving chase, Sisko locates a damaged Jem' Hadar warship and beams aboard the ship's only survivors: six Jem' Hadar soldiers and their Vorta field supervisor, Weyoun (Jeffrey Combs). Weyoun tells Sisko that the Dominion has located an Iconian Gateway that would allow travel to other planets without the use of starships. But the Gateway has been seized by Jem' Hadar renegades. Weyoun entreats Sisko to help the Jem' Hadar attack the renegades...but is Sisko willing to entrust the safety of his crew to an enemy that has pledged to destroy the Federation? |
