Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season 5
SPOILERS TOTAL. You've been warned.

601: A Time to Stand 1997 September 29
(First watched 2008-07-08) Given the ending of the previous episode, I really thought this episode would begin immediately thereafter, with an attack on DS9 by Federation forces. However, the jump forward several months into a war not going well is much more interesting.
Also, Admiral Ross. That's a character I'd run across in reading the ~Nemesis-era TNG novels, but I think this is his first on-screen appearance. Not that it was very big.
I was kind of surprised to see Jake going around freely on the station, but... I guess the Dominion aren't running a "harsh" occupation; at least yet.

602: Rocks and Shoals 1997 October 6
(First watched 2008-07-08) Interesting takes on similar subjects, in expected roles and whether to continue with them with the good of various people at stake. Kira and Odo try to keep things as good for Bajor as they can, but find themselves becoming more like collaborators of old. On the other hand, the Jem'Hadar soldier finds himself troubled by his doubting of his Vorta master. In the end a crazy suicide protest convinces Kira and Odo they must resist, but the Jem'Hadar decides to retain his loyalty to the Vorta; even when he knows the Vorta has betrayed his men and sent them to their death.
I also couldn't help but notice the Starfleet side only had two characters who weren't regulars or regular guests, and picked them out as dying redshirts pretty quickly. However, one of the two actually survived.

603: Sons and Daughters 1997 October 13
(First watched 2008-07-08) Boy, Alexander got big! And... for some reason all warriory unlike before. Well, at least wannabe warriory.
Kira and Odo seem reluctant to let Jake in on their resistance. But sheesh, if he found out about it on his own, mightn't it be best that they use him? They haven't even done anything yet and they've already got leaks to people outside of the resistance.
So AGAIN Dukat almost tricks Kira into being friendly with him before she realizes it. She really ought to have caught on to that by now.
