Notes
- This episode makes references to the events of these past episodes: “The Die is Cast”, “The Adversary”. Several in the future reference this episode too: “Apocalypse Rising”, “The Begotten”, “In Purgatory’s Shadow”, & “What You Leave Behind”.
- This is a loose sequel to “The Adversary”.
- The first appearance of the female changeling (the Founder’s Borg Queen if you will) since “Heart of Stone”.
- There’s an absolutely hilarious joke by Dax about being in a room “with so many naked men” that made me laugh too hard. No space on the social media posts for it, but I wanted to mention it somewhere.
