Airdate: 3 Nov 1997

Notes
- This is the final episode of a story arc about the war and the station being controlled by the Dominion/Dukat. While not an actual six part story, it is fairly tightly bound together and from the DS9 companion book, they were all created together, then the writers went off and wrote their episodes. The fifth and sixth parts are a two parter, however.
- The first episode of Star Trek where CGI was used exclusively, and old school physical models were no more.
- The final episode for the character of Tora Ziyal, who is killed in this episode.
- Some of the footage of the Federation ships at the station after the battle is over is repurposed footage from “The Way of the Warrior” and “Doctor Bashir, I Presume“.

#StarTrekMarathon Deep Space Nine Ep 130 - Sacrifice of Angels - 3 Nov 1997 2/2 basically a feral ball. Odo finally wakes up & helps Kira's rebel group on DS9. The Prophets resolve all of the space conflict, but say "The Sisko" will have to pay a penance. We'll get to that later. Spectacular ep!

#StarTrekMarathon Deep Space Nine Ep 130 - Sacrifice of Angels - 3 Nov 1997 3/2 Additional: This episode is further evidence that Mark Alaimo is one of the under appreciated heroes of Deep Space Nine. I adore what he does with Dukat over the years the show as on. Spectacular stuff.
