Whenever Vic's not on screen, all the other characters should be asking, "where's Vic?" We imagine this was probably a note from Ira Steven Behr as DS9 hurtled towards its end, breaking from the ultra-serialized format the finale has been taking thus far to give us more explicitly separate episodes! First up: Julian and Miles curb stomp ethics for the sake of saving Odo's life by taking a stroll in a dying Sloan's brain in "Extreme Measures"! After that, Sisko gets a new "Defiant" and news of a new baby, Damar gets a new plan, and Ferenginar gets a new Grand Nagus in "The Dogs of War"!
Also this week: seriously, where's Vic? Inception Horn. Plate chat.
