Star Trek DS9 Episode 172 - Tacking into the Wind

Got a little lost during this one. But basically, Odo turns himself into that female Changeling and goes with Damar to steal the powerful Breen energy weapon (Odo is the first transgender person on TV). Which they successfully do. The Federation now has this weapon and it's a game changer. Odo is also hiding his illness from everyone, but Kira suspects the truth. Miles and Bashir plan to release false info about discovering a cure in order to draw Section 31 out of the shadows.

In a very important Star Trek moment, Worf and Martok turn agains Chancellor Gowron because he seems corrupt and power hungry. Worf challenges Gowron and ends up killing him. Gowron has been Chancellor since TNG, but now that honor falls to Worf. He declines and instead gives the honor to Martok.

R.I.P. Gowron, one of the most fun Trek characters ever.

I agree, I'm glad they did this though. It was a good moment for Worf.
