Star Trek DS9 Episode 152 - Shadows and Symbols

A few things going on in this one. Sisko, Ezri (the new Dax), Jake and Sisko's dad go searching for what Sisko saw in the sand in his vision from last episode. They end up on a desert planet named Tyree. Sisko find a spot and digs. He discovers an Ark with one of those magical orbs in it. Ezri urges him to open it and basically it opens the wormhole back up. Then Sisko's mothers ghost shows up and tells him that she was an alien the entire time. His birth was pre-destined, as was his entire life.

Meanwhile Kira has set up a blockade to fend off the Romulans who are being rather sketchy. Worf and crew are off destroying a Dominion base in addition to trying to secure Jadzia's spot in Klingon heaven.

A weird thing that has been happening these past few episodes is that there is flashes to Sisko in an insane asylum. The doctors keep commenting on how he is delusional and made up this entire story about being on a spaceship. I would love it if the last episode revealed that Star Trek was just a dream by some weirdo in a nut house. It would be so dumb.

152 down and 24 to go

the last episode is Sisko waking up in bed next to Spencer for Hire. he was Hawk the whole time.
he then comments that Spencer should wear "more star fleet uniforms"

LOL.

I do think the show missed an opportunity by not having the last episode call back to Far Beyond the Stars, with it all being a story by that writer. Could have been interesting.

It would have been really interesting if they did that. There could have been so many ways they could have used that plot.
