It’s Only a Paper Moon.
Events in Star Trek—even tragic ones—rarely have lasting
consequences. Deep Space Nine changed that with arcs that took
place during the Dominion War. In particular, in the final season,
Nog’s injuries in battle led to a deep exploration of the lasting
impact of a single moment in time—and they did it with the usual
DS9 mix of serious commentary and humor.
In this episode of The Ready Room, we’re joined by Zachary
Fruhling and Matthew Rushing to discuss Nog’s retreat to the
holosuite, his struggle to come to terms with the physical and
emotional damage of his experiences in “The Siege of AR-558,” and
the counseling tag-team of Ezri Dax and Vic Fontaine who brought
him back to reality.
In our news segment, we discuss additional shooting (reported as
reshoots by most media) for Star Trek Beyond, a special agreement
between CBS and Paramount that dictated a six-month post-film
waiting period for Star Trek’s return to TV, and Rod Roddenberry
joining the new series as Executive Producer.
