Stardate Unknown A young lieutenant named Ilario (Art Chudabala) is found dead in his quarters. An investigation reveals he was shot by a TR-116 rifle, a weapon developed but never mass-produced by Starfleet. Meanwhile, Ezri (Nicole deBoer) confronts one of Dax's previous incarnations in a dream: Joran (Leigh J. McCloskey), a self-professed murderer, urges Ezri to channel his disturbing memories and enable him to assist her in apprehending Ilario's killer. When Ezri awakens, she learns that a second murder has occurred. |

Stardate Unknown Odo (René Auberjonois) returns from a conference with an unexpected guest: a Changeling (Garman Hertzler) who tracked and boarded his Runabout. Odo recognizes him as one of "the hundred" shapeshifters who were, like himself, sent out as infants into the galaxy to learn about other species. Back at the station, Sisko (Avery Brooks) warily releases the visitor to Odo's custody. The Changeling, known as Laas, queries Odo about their unique species - with which Laas has made no contact since his infancy - and "the Link," a Changeling ritual that allows shapeshifters to meld with one another and thereby form a single, sentient collective entity. |
