Rebinging Star Trek DS9: A Time to Stand
WE ARE BACK! Hello Star Trek fans! Welcome to Rebinge Deep Space Nine S6E1: A Time to Stand! The Dominion war is not going well and in this episode the DS9 crew gets a dangerous new assignment. Back on the station Major Kira is gritting her teeth every day as she puts up with Dukat and the Cardassians. This episode is full of the usual guest stars like Marc Alaimo (Dukat), Jeffrey Combs (Weyoun), Casey Biggs (Damar) and our favorite JG Hertzler (Martok). Even Brock Peters as Grandpa Joe makes a brief appearance!
A Time to Stand
Starfleet finally has a plan that makes sense – we send Sisko and crew to destroy a big ketracel-white storage facility using the previously acquired Jem’Hadar ship (see The Ship). While this is a good plan, it is also a very dangerous one! Back on the station, Major Kira has to deal with pretending to be ok with the occupying force on her station. While she tries to put on a smiling face, Dukat is busy being threatening and generally disgusting. This is an intense opening to a season!

Great to have you back. I don’t begrudge you some time off but I miss the weekly episodes when you’re gone.
Thanks Chris! 2 weeks seemed like a very long time! We did keep recording – we are trying to build up DS9 a bit because Prodigy is back and we have to do that quicker! So hopefully from here you will get the DS9 season uninterrupted.
