Ezri investigates a murder.
The premise of this one did not fully grip me and I think the story unfolds in a way that is not quite as disturbing as the writers want it to be. Previous Dax episodes that involve communication with previous hosts are okay, but I struggle with the attempted Hannibal/Clarice vibes of this one.
I think the criticisms of Nicole de Boer are harsh as I think this type of plot does not particularly suit her portrayal of the character. I never accept the concept that she has any dark thoughts or temptations because she is a Star Trek main character and the persona she developed prior to this episode is so sweet. It would have taken some quite psychotic moments to make me think otherwise and not too many actors can do that type of performance convincingly.
I am not a fan of how a Vulcan character is used in this episode nor how they are generally written in DS9, (it gets even worse in the show Enterprise), but this is more an issue of my personal taste than an issue with the standard of filmmaking.
I think the visuals are decent and like the idea of the transported bullets, but it for me is wasted on this storyline. More interesting is whether or not this quite useful sci-fi tech is mentioned again in future episodes or conveniently disappears into the world of episodic screenwriting.
