122. Girlboss, Gaslight, Gatekeep (Kai Winn deep dive, part 3)

54 minutes

Anika and Liz are letting their hair down and ... giving themselves to the Pah Wraiths? This seems like a bad idea...

All Star Treks should end before they have a mediocre seventh season that undermines everything that came earlier

We do not care for the Pah Wraiths as a concept

Make sure you're sitting down because Liz has something nice to say about Rick Berman

Kira is a Jewish Bajoran and Winn is a Christian Bajoran

It turns out that if you watch all the Winn episodes in a short space of time, her season seven arc arc does not make sense at all

Winn/Dukat is a textbook abusive relationship and it's troubling that fandom doesn't see that or thinks she deserved it

The similarities between season 7 of DS9 and Revenge of the Sith are actually fairly impressive

RIP Solbor, the only person who cared about Winn (and he didn't even like her)

It's possible we're meant to find Winn's sensuality repellent (so once again Liz and Anika are Doing Star Trek Wrong)

The intimate partner violence of it all
