So the fact that O'Brian had met Worf before is irrelevant. 3) Whether Worf was "quiet" or not is a matter of opinion.
I'd like to think out of anyone in the federation, O'Brien would be the one most comfortable and capable with a good old fashion powder and lead shootin iron. O'brien and Kira are the only main characters across the three middle series (TNG, DS9, VOY) who saw actual ground level combat. Everyone else did all their fighting on a ship.
@@coyoteannabis1192 …if you forget the entire episodes they were fighting on the ground or Worf fighting multiple times on the ground on away missions and secret missions
This is actually a bit of a bro move by Martok. He could've just cloaked past DS9 like he had done through all of Federation space and attacked Cardassia. By stopping there he was letting the Federation know something big was about to happen so that they could react to it. Otherwise the first news the Federation would've gotten about the war probably would've been when the Klingons occupied Cardassia itself. It was also a well thought out bro move too. Resting his troops just before an attack is a justifiable excuse to decloak and hand out shore leave. If he had decloaked anywhere else in the Federation Gowron could've accused him of treason. Very clever.
Plus that is NOT Martok. That was a Changeling. Informing the Federation what was going on draws the Federation in. It also might blow the element of surprise for the Klingons which means costing more lives and ships. Which is what the Founders want....less opposition when they invade. They just never anticipated Section 31.
"If one of my people were loose on the station for [3hr 27min] there's no telling how much damage they could do" And then there was a changeling on the station for 4 weeks and he almost blew up the entire Bajoran system, sabotaged efforts to close the wormhole to stop the Dominion fleet from entering Cardassian space, possibly killed a Bajoran maintenance worker, caused the deaths of the crew of the Rio Grande during the staged Dominion attack, and god knows what else.
Yeah and since Odo is not exactly one of the Founders of the Great Link, *we're not even certain* that phaser sweeps are as effective on them as they were on him, and we know blood tests didn't help.
Normal families love when their families come round, no matter how rich or poor they are. I guess you or your family, or even both! are one of those sub-human types that always think they are above anyone else.
Quark didn't get to be a successful businessman by being oblivious to what's going on around him. He truly understands how his bar functions, and that's the point: Expertise comes in people and ways that may surprise you. Do not be dismissive.
They missed a great joke here. Quark: "See how they are looking around? It's like they are picking out targets" O'brian: "Gets up and stands behind Quark" Quark: "What are you doing?" O'Brian: "Well I don't want them to pick me!" Quark: "Cut that out! I'm serious."

Martok really sold all the DS9 Klingon dramas for me. TNG’s were irritating and played out very similarly. Worf is cool but he’s awfully boring by himself, but with Martok, Worf is just great.
This is because TNG treated Worf like a precious cocker spaniel that occasionally gets temperamental. On DS9 he thrived! He grew, because of Sisko's style of command and the variety on board DS9; which contrast with the Enterprise.
yea Martok is a legend, but for some reason chancellor Gowron was a purer Kingon imo. When he brings that line: "The Klingon Empire will remember what has happened here. You have sided against us in battle. And this we do not forgive! OR FORGET! to Sisko, I was like this is Klingon inkarnate.

@@sebastiannemeth-ramirez2160 It's probably more of a surprise for everyone living on the station, not for the security team. The crew probably gets a "This week we'll prepare for a drill." For the rest of the station it's a test on getting everyone to a safe area.
I remember here in UK Sky were almost a year ahead of BBC2 for DS9 episodes, a friend of mine came into school raving about this episode and I was so annoyed. There was no bigger Trek fan in our year than me but we didn't have Sky 😢
DS9 was definetly not my fave Star Trek show, but it had some of my favourite characters. Odo, Garak, Quark. All excellent, unusually grey characters for Star Trek!
What is funny (and definitely accurate) in DS9 is how all of the major Alpha Quadrant powers freak out about the Dominion. Only the Federation, kind of, keeps a level head (although Admiral Layton's 2 arc episode even hurts that). Cardassian and Romulans team up to wipe out Founder Home World, Klingons try to Conquer Cardassia, Federation tries to setup a police state. Kind of crazy.
@@SagaciousNihilist That would require an even greater actor then, as that would mean he had to act like his character was not having fun, while his character was having fun, while he himself was feeling tortured.
The great thing about modern sci-fi is that they no longer go with that idea from 1950s sci fi that everyone in the future has one outfit (usually a monocolor jumpsuit) but everyone is free to dress as individuals and choose their own wardrobe. It looks more natural and it's really a great thing that adds texture and feel to the look of a show like this. Watched this video. Let's all go with the monocolor jumpsuit.
I love how odo literally finds out what and who he is a couple days prior and he’s already talking like he knows his people like the back of his hand lol
1:20 or so: once Bashir realizes he's too late, everything about Odo's face says, "A little too slow, are we, Doctor?" :D 3:20 Lots of Klingons, yes. Hopefully not too many for a station of DS9's size...
I had seen `Way of the Warrior' the first week of season 4 on a Sunday night. Two hours of Klingons, Cardassians, explosions and a very unsettled Quark.
Star Trek was so great for so long. The Next Generation, Deep Space 9, Babylon 5. I thought they'd still be cranking out shows Gene Roddenberry would love until long after I was gone. Alas.
You'd be surprised how easily such information could fall into enemy hands. During WWII, a surprising amount of information was passed by runners since they didn't fully trust their communication lines.
@@earthlingavian1132 Wait...but....how? Cloaked ships are supposed to be cloaked to the eyes as well as to instruments...right? Ehhhh fuck it, let's go with "Tachyon web".
Some weren't so bad. Most of the stuff Jake wore isn't anything worse than a modern day hipster. Trade the turtlenecks for flannel and bingo. A lot of times, it wasn't the outfit itself that was hideous, it was the choice of material. Either way too heavy for the cut or just plain ugly.
1:45 - Odo is basically describing the gameplay of the game "Prey" where the shapeshifting aliens (or you after acquiring their powers) can disguise themselves as a coffee mug, toilet paper, trash can, chair, etc.
@@jacobfremont2649 They just have to redo all CGI in high resolution... as they did for TNG and TOS... Moonves didn't want to... but fortunately he was fired 😀
@@dbevit it's not the same, TOS and TNG were filmed in a way that made it possible to remaster, DS9 was not. So HD remaster of DS9 is impossible. Unless you want HD remastered static (not sure if this would happen as I don't know the science behind it).
@@AhsokaTanoTheWhite TOS and TNG were filmed on film, DS9 and VOY on tape. I know that. But I've also read that an HD version is possibile, it was CBS under Moonves that didn't want to spend the needed money :)
DS9's running Security drills... Where is "Starfleet Security" chief Eddington anyway? He had prominent screentime in the season 3 finale... ...he's apparently "on leave" when his staff is running security exercises.
Then you've never heard of being trained in multiple disciplines.. military people do it , especially Rangers, Seals and MARSOC etc.. as well as NYPD Emergency services. and yes.. even Astronauts.. engineers train as medics and snipers as EOD experts..
Buy it by all means. TOS and DS9, along with post-Seven-rescue is real Star Trek, TNG gets too creepy with guys preying on Deanna, Tasha, and Luxawana and no butt-kicking in return. Q is a pill that needs punching (The Sisko delivers that!) and you get some real romance with TOS, DS9, and VOY. Picard and Discovery are too woke and anyone who says TOS women are weak just because they let the guys protect them doesn't seem to notice how harmoniously both sexes seem to get along. Just an opinion from an old soul. Fun, action, family, sci-fi aplenty, and classic storytelling abound in DS9. Do buy it and enjoy it!
Definitely worth the buy, especially if you liked B5. There are very similar, to the point where it is widely believed that Trek copied much of B5's basic story, but with a far better budget.
There was one problem with the drill and Odo's assertion that 3hrs 27min was too long to catch him as an actual Changeling could do so much damage in that time. The issue is that Odo spent the time actively trying to evade capture before himself catching Bashir unawares (because the sweeps would have cornered him anyway at that point). All that time running around wouldn't leave any for the Changeling to do the damage Odo is warning about. The very act of actively sweeping the station would keep the Changeling on the move and far less able to carry out whatever their mission was.
True. Not that Odo didn't have good reason to push for better performance, but it's hard to do something when you're busy running away and hiding all the time. They could improve that training by having some notional objectives Do needed to perform that the defenders didn't know about. Like, setup a fake warp core that can be notionally overloaded, have a VIP nearby at the same time, have a cloaked (or notionally cloaked) ship nearby full of boarders pretending to be Jem'Hadar that need a secure airlock to attack from (or shields to drop, or something), etc. Their training was a good start, but not what it could've been.
There is some merit to that, actually. If they caught you whispering about them, they might think you're conspiring against them. If they "overhear" you saying they're acting suspicious, then they know you're worried about them, and not that they need to be worried of you.
Klingons must be bad for business. I imagine they'd start a lot of fights, and Quark can't embezzle them because their strict code of honor would have them escalate.
I love how Quark immediately knew something was up, and that O'Brien realized he was right.

DS9 is also my favorite. I love TNG and like TOS and Voyager but DS9 will always be my absolute favorite.
"Schedule another surprise drill."
Lol. Well spotted bro!
I heard that too. How do you schedule a surprise? Isn't the word 'surprise' a synonym for 'unplanned'? So, an unplanned planned drill?
Only Odo would know the time and date of the drill. No one else. "Changeling loose on the station, Captain. Try and catch me faster this time."
@@sebastiannemeth-ramirez2160 It's probably more of a surprise for everyone living on the station, not for the security team. The crew probably gets a "This week we'll prepare for a drill." For the rest of the station it's a test on getting everyone to a safe area.
@@sebastiannemeth-ramirez2160 No, Sherlock, you don't share he schedule with everybody.
Quark is a secret genius. He suspected the Klingons were up to something before anyone else.
Rule #7: Keep your ears open.
Information is Quark’s best defense.
I remember here in UK Sky were almost a year ahead of BBC2 for DS9 episodes, a friend of mine came into school raving about this episode and I was so annoyed. There was no bigger Trek fan in our year than me but we didn't have Sky 😢
DS9 was definetly not my fave Star Trek show, but it had some of my favourite characters.
Odo, Garak, Quark. All excellent, unusually grey characters for Star Trek!
Even though Martok is played by John Garman Hertzler Jr., every time I hear him speak, I think it is Rip Torn.
Dang I just now thought about that...as distinctive a voice as Hertzler has, he and RIP Torn DO sound alike!
@@DRTY3RD oh I see what you did there! I feel clever now on a dull day. Let er rip!
"If you can dodge a batleth, you can dodge a ball!"
@@mbaxter22 If you can dodge targs, you can dodge a ball!
Rip Torn would've been amazing as a crazy old Klingon.
Miles, you don't just get up and ask the Klingons what they're up to. Not unless you have a death wish.
Warf, go ask them what they're up to
@@jlinkous05 And that's pretty much what they ended up doing. :P
To bo honest, Klingons are usually respectful, they don't hurt allies.
Miles is an experienced officer, he fought at the Battle of Setlik 3, with valour.
And yet that's totally O'Brien. He goes there. Literally.
What is funny (and definitely accurate) in DS9 is how all of the major Alpha Quadrant powers freak out about the Dominion. Only the Federation, kind of, keeps a level head (although Admiral Layton's 2 arc episode even hurts that). Cardassian and Romulans team up to wipe out Founder Home World, Klingons try to Conquer Cardassia, Federation tries to setup a police state. Kind of crazy.
In both of the attacks you mention, changeling infiltrators were the #1 or #2 leaders of the attack. So not exactly left to their own devices.
That Klingon fleet decloaking was so epic when it first aired.
Thank you so much. My DVR cut off part 1. Now I'm back on trek.
I love klingons and their vessels! :-)
a Neg'vhar Dreadnought, Vor'cha Battlecruisers, D7-K'tinga Refit Heavy cruisers B'rel and K'vort BoPs...jesus
doctorwho0077 in Star Trek lore they moved past nuclear technology, nuclear warheads are a thing of the past
Odo's stoic demeanor belied the fact that he was having a lot of fun messing with the DS9 crew.
It must take a great actor to make it look like they're not having fun while also looking like they're secretly having fun
@@theredscourge ...with that amount of latex in your face. René was a great actor.
Perfectly in character for his acting Style. Before he was Odo, don't forget he was Clayton Endicott III on Benson...
@@theredscourge Having fun? Wearing that mask was torture for Rene, which he would channel to fuel the bitterness/anger of the Odo character.
@@SagaciousNihilist That would require an even greater actor then, as that would mean he had to act like his character was not having fun, while his character was having fun, while he himself was feeling tortured.
At 2:55 -sisko dressed like he is been in quarantine for a month
Been there, done that... for the last 2 years!
"Schedule another surprise drill." I hope that was an intentional joke by the writers.
Even with a surprise drill, the person doing the surprising would have to schedule it lol but it does sound wrong.
The great thing about modern sci-fi is that they no longer go with that idea from 1950s sci fi that everyone in the future has one outfit (usually a monocolor jumpsuit) but everyone is free to dress as individuals and choose their own wardrobe. It looks more natural and it's really a great thing that adds texture and feel to the look of a show like this.
Watched this video. Let's all go with the monocolor jumpsuit.
His clothes look like a badly calibrated screensaver!
@@joebloggs5318it looks like an odd mix of traditional African clothing and the paint designs of Ancient Greek vases.
I gotta watch this show over again.
I love how odo literally finds out what and who he is a couple days prior and he’s already talking like he knows his people like the back of his hand lol
1:20 or so: once Bashir realizes he's too late, everything about Odo's face says, "A little too slow, are we, Doctor?" :D
3:20 Lots of Klingons, yes. Hopefully not too many for a station of DS9's size...
I had seen `Way of the Warrior' the first week of season 4 on a Sunday night. Two hours of Klingons, Cardassians, explosions and a very unsettled Quark.
Kira/Nana Vistor was so gorgeous, one of my childhood crushes ❤
My god Terry Ferrell is just a goddess.
"Bang! You're dead!"
I have no idea why, but that line always gets me giggling.
Star Trek was so great for so long. The Next Generation, Deep Space 9, Babylon 5. I thought they'd still be cranking out shows Gene Roddenberry would love until long after I was gone. Alas.
Roddenberry would have hated DS9. I love the show and it is my favorite of the Trek shows, but it is very far from Roddenberry's vision.
"... check your team leaders for the schedule." Like, they don't have digital calendars in deep space?
When you have to meet in person, the chance of information being intercepted by hostile entities goes down.
You'd be surprised how easily such information could fall into enemy hands. During WWII, a surprising amount of information was passed by runners since they didn't fully trust their communication lines.
Everyone check their Palm pilot. Yea, those'll still be around in the 24th century, right?
they likely haven’t yet made them as there’s meetings to be held by department heads first so it’s not ready yet
@@shadowtheimpure and was proven true, it’s why they developed spoken codes using other languages known only to a few(see Code Talkers)
O'brien's enthusiasm during the drill is hilarious.
I like how Quark likes to mess with Odo. Quark knows Odo won't actually do it and Odo knows Quark knows this too.
3:20 that's a pretty tight formation for a bunch of cloaked ships to have.
Why? Each Klingon ship knows where each other Klingon ship is.
Cloaked ships in formation can see each other.
@@earthlingavian1132 Wait...but....how? Cloaked ships are supposed to be cloaked to the eyes as well as to instruments...right? Ehhhh fuck it, let's go with "Tachyon web".
"I don't want them to know we're on to them!" Quark shouts out in the middle of the bar while surrounded by Klingons.
Why have both the CO and XO together in a training scenario? Both are huge targets for the enemy.
I agree it doesn't make sense
because they are both main characters obviously
Igor Wojtyna obvious, yet foolishly applied by Starfleet and the Bajoran military.
Howard Pearcey no wonder why Starfleet did so bad during the Dominion War. They didn’t treat training scenarios as the real thing.
Starfleet not Star... FFS man.
4:05 "How can you be deaf, with ears like that?"
Very when your fucking terrified
RIP Dr McCoy
Lmao!🤣 This ipening confused me for a moment thinking it was misplaced in sequence: until they said "changling is headed for the promenade!"😅
The opening to my favorite Star Trek episode, after Balance of Terror, Journey to Babel, and the Romulan Incident!
Klingon ships were always so cool looking
Not too shabby for repurposed Romulan warbirds.
Odo: Can warp into a bird and fly away but can't make a human nose...
Irishman are always front and center..
O'Brian listened to Quark's instincts like a trusted brother. This is the season when $Hit got real.
When you're the last one alive on your team playing Prop Hunt.
2:48 what hideous civilian clothes the Federation had
Bell bottoms ,suit worn with sneakers, over sized watches 50 mm and larger , all much worse fashion abominations😊
I think Sisko's clothes here were African inspired. Most other civvies were much uglier.
Some weren't so bad. Most of the stuff Jake wore isn't anything worse than a modern day hipster. Trade the turtlenecks for flannel and bingo.
A lot of times, it wasn't the outfit itself that was hideous, it was the choice of material. Either way too heavy for the cut or just plain ugly.
1:45 - Odo is basically describing the gameplay of the game "Prey" where the shapeshifting aliens (or you after acquiring their powers) can disguise themselves as a coffee mug, toilet paper, trash can, chair, etc.
Always wondered if O'Briens "Bang, you're dead" was an ad lib that Rene Auberjonois just rolled with it like the professional he is.
That such a large Klingon fleet can be unnoticed just outside, it was time to upgrade those sensors, even if they were cloaked
When are we going to see DS9 in HD?
i think it was said at one point that the original medium that ds9 was shot on makes an HD re-release impossible
@@jacobfremont2649 They just have to redo all CGI in high resolution... as they did for TNG and TOS... Moonves didn't want to... but fortunately he was fired 😀
I would watch DS9 on a VHS tape! I don't care!
@@dbevit it's not the same, TOS and TNG were filmed in a way that made it possible to remaster, DS9 was not. So HD remaster of DS9 is impossible. Unless you want HD remastered static (not sure if this would happen as I don't know the science behind it).
@@AhsokaTanoTheWhite TOS and TNG were filmed on film, DS9 and VOY on tape. I know that. But I've also read that an HD version is possibile, it was CBS under Moonves that didn't want to spend the needed money :)
Damn I love Odo! I love his sternness
I finally fixed the Typo you Bastards
You precious little life from.
😂
I bring you thanks from the Bastards.
We have a way too easy nowadays lol I had to wait an entire summer to finish watching the continuation of this episode
When Sisko first shaved his head, I thought he looked like Gordon from "Sesame Street".
You must not have seen Avery Brooks as Hawk on Spenser for Hire.
He first thought that was just one ship's crew was coming over for shore leave and say ok then dozens of them de-cloak.
Sisko: "Damn, even with replicators there is no way we have enough liquor..."
This is my favorite scene of Odo.
Star trek: war and depression 9 God this series wore on me after awhile
No sign of changeling --watch yerself,chief-----WEFOUND him,he's headed 2 the promenade
Oh the good old days when Star Trek was still cool.
Federation civilian wear sure is hideous
By "crew," General Martok neglected to mention that he was referring to the main strike force of the Klingon warfleet.
Best scene in Star Trek history period.
DS9's running Security drills...
Where is "Starfleet Security" chief Eddington anyway?
He had prominent screentime in the season 3 finale...
...he's apparently "on leave" when his staff is running security exercises.
Eddington was, for a time, suspected of being a Changeling. It was a Red Herring, and the reveal was that Eddington was part of the Marqui.
@Janoha17
That was cleared up with Bashir being discovered trapped in a room near the mess hall.
Martok's like your kid when he brings home all his buddies from the neighborhood. "You mind making some sandwiches, ma?"
"Where are you going?"
"Fuckin' anywhere but here!!!"
ahh yes. DS9. When the station's doctor has tactical command of security teams.
Then you've never heard of being trained in multiple disciplines.. military people do it , especially Rangers, Seals and MARSOC etc.. as well as NYPD Emergency services. and yes.. even Astronauts.. engineers train as medics and snipers as EOD experts..
@@robertravena xD lmao
*Odo warning the crew to be careful and ready in case they're ever infiltrated by a changeling*
Martok: Allow me to introduce myself
I am very very tempted to buy this series. I never watched the whole thing when it was on TV. It reminds me a lot of Babylon 5, which I loved.
Buy it by all means. TOS and DS9, along with post-Seven-rescue is real Star Trek, TNG gets too creepy with guys preying on Deanna, Tasha, and Luxawana and no butt-kicking in return. Q is a pill that needs punching (The Sisko delivers that!) and you get some real romance with TOS, DS9, and VOY. Picard and Discovery are too woke and anyone who says TOS women are weak just because they let the guys protect them doesn't seem to notice how harmoniously both sexes seem to get along. Just an opinion from an old soul. Fun, action, family, sci-fi aplenty, and classic storytelling abound in DS9. Do buy it and enjoy it!
Definitely worth the buy, especially if you liked B5. There are very similar, to the point where it is widely believed that Trek copied much of B5's basic story, but with a far better budget.
@@sackitt16 Christmas gift to myself. I really missed some great story telling. I don't even remember quitting. I probably just became distracted.
@@kathleenhensley5951 Well enjoy it. Take care and God Bless.
There was one problem with the drill and Odo's assertion that 3hrs 27min was too long to catch him as an actual Changeling could do so much damage in that time. The issue is that Odo spent the time actively trying to evade capture before himself catching Bashir unawares (because the sweeps would have cornered him anyway at that point). All that time running around wouldn't leave any for the Changeling to do the damage Odo is warning about. The very act of actively sweeping the station would keep the Changeling on the move and far less able to carry out whatever their mission was.
True.
Not that Odo didn't have good reason to push for better performance, but it's hard to do something when you're busy running away and hiding all the time.
They could improve that training by having some notional objectives Do needed to perform that the defenders didn't know about. Like, setup a fake warp core that can be notionally overloaded, have a VIP nearby at the same time, have a cloaked (or notionally cloaked) ship nearby full of boarders pretending to be Jem'Hadar that need a secure airlock to attack from (or shields to drop, or something), etc.
Their training was a good start, but not what it could've been.
I was confused that scanners would not still detect them as a life form?
Yes. Let's speak aloud in a quiet room so the Klingons can hear us talking about them being suspicious
There is some merit to that, actually. If they caught you whispering about them, they might think you're conspiring against them. If they "overhear" you saying they're acting suspicious, then they know you're worried about them, and not that they need to be worried of you.
@@Zyroes I mean yeah true
A brilliant story.
Quark, the unofficial power behind DS9 😆
God I love this show
It’s like when children are playing quietly, that’s when you check on them…..
3:35 : I Bring you Greetings from the Klingon Empire.And brought it with me.
When we stood up, I thought he was leaving XD LOL Oh no I’ve had enough of this on the enterprise
Klingons must be bad for business. I imagine they'd start a lot of fights, and Quark can't embezzle them because their strict code of honor would have them escalate.
On the other hand they drink a whole lot.
And apparently pay a premium to use the holosuites.
