Star Trek DS9 Episode 163 - Field of Fire

"Ezri summons a homicidal Dax, Joran, incarnation to understand the mind of a killer in order to solve recent murders."

It sounds like a dumb plot, but I sort of enjoyed this one. Dax gets drunk and hooks up with some guy, the next morning she finds him dead. The weapon they discover is a prototype Starfleet phaser/rifle that can shoot through walls by using a small transporter attached to it (which is actually a cool idea). Soon more people start to die. Ezri summons a former serial killer Dax from her subconscious and he helps her solve the crime (yeah, this is a bit far fetched). They find out that the killer is a Vulcan, I really liked the twist because you would never think that a Vulcan would do this. Come to find out that this Vulcan is one of the few survivors from the USS Grissom. He witnessed many deaths and is now insane because of it.

163 down and 13 to go
