I disagree, but not wholeheartedly...
By Cap'n Calhoun

Although I very much enjoyed the episode, Deus makes some valid points. Also, the episode has a few plot holes, like the following exchange (paraphrased, not quoted):

Archer: They never revealed that he had stolen embryos.

Mayweather: That's right, I remember seeing that on the news! They never did find out what happened to those embryos...

Huh? Did they reveal it or didn't they?

I do strongly object to the following:

Quote:
STAR TREK has a repeated and inescapable history of mishandling romances between characters and even under the best of circumstances such romances appear unprofessional and tend to undermine the female character; with the single exception of Troi, who couldn't possibly be undermined any further.

Come on, Deus! You can't really mean to imply that Kira was undermined by her romance with Odo! The Kira-Odo romance may be the best romance I've seen on TV (and, IMHO, one of the most realistic), and both characters benefited from it immeasurably. Although I'm not as much of a fan of Dax/Worf, I think it was also handled very well. Actually, Riker/Troi wasn't all that bad either... Now Worf/Troi, that's another story entirely...
