[edit] Episode talk page

At the end of the episode, O'Brien predicts that Bashir will hit "20, outer ring" at darts with foreknowledge from the future. However, we know from "Doctor Bashir, I Presume" that the genetically engineered Dr. Bashir was always intentionally throwing the dart games to O'Brien to conceal his genetic advantage. So doesn't that mean that Bashir was then aiming specifically at 20, outer ring, making O'Brien's prediction a self-fulfilling prophecy?

In this episode, when darts are first being introduced to Quark's, and apparently to Bashir too, Bashir is not throwing the games - he won ten in a row. Maybe later he started fooling OBrien. SwishyGarak 18:32, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Romulan singularities

Throughout this episode, when the character were wondering "What could be the source of this mysterious invisible singularity?", I kept saying "Cloaked Romulan warbird!" Wouldn't they (or at least O'Brien) already know about Romulans using artificial singularities to power their ships? And if so, why would they not immediately suspect the visiting Romulans?

I agree; but this wiki doesn't have a section for questions about the episode, like others. MaGnUs 08:04, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Julian

I'll let someone with an account and an editing history confirm and post this, but I believe that this is the first episode since "The Storyteller" that O'Brien has referred to Bashir as Julian. 24.218.218.197 02:10, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Removed Background Info

I've removed an item in the Background that has been waiting for a citation for at least 6 months as far as I can tell. I'm placing it here.

• In the original story for this episode, it was not going to be O'Brien getting shifted in time, it was going to be Odo. DhaliaUnsung 20:17, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
