Series 5, Episode 11 - "That's how the Romulans are. They are duplicitous little turds."

In the newest episode of "Hit or Miss: Star Trek," we're diving deep into one of the most controversial and celebrated episodes of Deep Space Nine: "In the Pale Moonlight." Hosts Captain Mike and First Officer D.K are joined by the insightful Adrienne Park-Tucker and the ever-charismatic Lady Vean for a tension-filled review. Get ready for a rollercoaster ride as we unpack our first impressions and delve into the complex morality that defines this DS9 masterpiece. From Sisko’s dark decisions to Garak’s shadowy manipulations, we leave no stone unturned in our quest to understand what makes this episode so gripping. We also explore the standout performances and direction that bring this moral dilemma to life. But that's just the beginning. Before we set our phasers to discuss, we kick things off with our signature Hit or Miss section, setting the stage for what’s to come. And for a poetic twist, D.K. treats us to a limerick and haiku, while Adrienne poetically sums up the episode with her unique flair for limericks. Tune in for a rather spirited discussion, hopefully some deep insights, and maybe a few laughs along the way. With the Romulans involved things are never black and white but hopefully this episode won't leave you wanting to erase all record of it.
