Duet! Well, we're finally here. DS9 finally dives into some of the heaviest subject matter of the series, specifically all those war crimes Cardassians committed during their occupation of Bajor. Many fans call this one of the best if not the best episode of the entire series, which is high praise given that we're still in season 1. Does the NST crew agree? Well, our answers may surprise you, and for reasons you probably wouldn't expect.
