"DS9" never really got much worse than this. "Honor Among Thieves" is a dull, overdone episode in which O'Brien goes undercover in a crime syndicate and finds himself developing a friendship with the man who would be his enemy. Oh, whatever! This episode has horribly cliché lines, an uninteresting plot line, and a plethora of WTF, random moments (Bilby's cat? The Dominion?). Nick Tate seems to be interested only in getting paid, and even Colm Meaney's performance wasn't what it should have been. I think the only other DS9 episode that reached that low level of quality was "Hard Time." Which is a shame, because O'Brien is an excellent character. That makes this episode all the more heinous for not showcasing him properly. A badly framed waste of time.
