(First watched 2008-10-28) | (First watched 2008-10-28) Most of this episode was a good conclusion and sent the characters off in appropriate directions. However, I was disappointed with the abrupt conclusion of the Emissary/Sisko vs Dukat storylines, considering the buildup. In decreasing chronological importance: it was responsible for Ben Sisko's existence, has been a part of the show for seven years, Sisko and Dukat were last seen in a very antagonistic way but it's been over a year, and throughout this whole "Final Chapter" we've seen Dukat working with Winn to free the Pah-wraiths. All of that, and this final fight of good and evil comes down to Dukat forcing Sisko to his knees, then getting tackled off a cliff into fire once distracted? However, execution aside, I did both like Dukat ending up the Pah-wraith Emissary, and Winn finally doing the right thing at the very end. | ||
Of all the various goodbyes and separations in this episode, the one that struck me as saddest was Ben and Jake Sisko. Let's just hope that Jake handles it a bit better than he did in [[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season 4|The Visitor]]. | |||
