Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe teleplay for this episode was co-written by Dorothy Fontana (aka D.C. Fontana), the head writer for the original 'Star Trek' series, who wrote such episodes as "Charlie X", "This Side of Paradise", and "Journey to Babel", and the pilot episode for 'Star Trek: The Next Generation'. This was her only credit on 'Deep Space Nine' and was the last Star Trek script she wrote.
- GoofsThe hearing as a means to delay the extradition of Jadzia Dax in order to find evidence for her defense would be unnecessary. Even if the Klaestron IV representative was correct that they could conduct a "unilateral" extradition, the assault on Bashir would provide Sisko the right to hold their entire team for trial, rendering moot the need for the hearing since they could not transport Dax while in custody for assault.

Very interesting coincidence
I am not really rating this episode, but I simply want to point out the very interesting coincidence that the main underlying plot for it, i.e., an extradition hearing (here for Lieutenant Dax), is the same as that of Episode 10 of the fourth season of Northern Exposure (entitled "Crime and Punishment") that aired exactly two months earlier (12/14/92) and centered around an extradition hearing for "Chris in the morning". In both cases the somewhat improvised defense was successfully made on the grounds that the person being sought for extradition was no longer the same as the one who had committed the alleged crime (murder for Lt. Dax, parole violation for Chris) as a result of an extensive change of their personality (changing host body for Lt. Dax, becoming a radio show host for Chris). The "icing on the cake" is that for both episodes the hearing judge is played by the SAME actress, Anne Haney.
