Ds9 Visionary

Concerned, Sisko asks Odo to check the surveillance they set up only to discover that someone else has installed some surveillance of these own using very delicate transporter work. Odo believes that the Klingons are involved but plans to research all options, even Quark. They soon locate the area the transport was completed and discover that someone has tampered with a replicator so as to transport these devices from within the station itself. It seems that these devices used was by the Klingons and the Klingons on the station are part of a Strike Force used by the Klingon Empire. It seems that Gowron has sent an organization to view the Romulan delegation. Odo plans to carry the Klingons until the Romulans depart the station, avoiding the death of Chief O’Brien.

They warn off the Warbird and all, including O’Brien’s life, is saved. Back Ops, Bashir informs Sisko that he has eliminated the vast majority of the radioisotopes from O’Brien’s system and the last treatment is in a couple of more hours, and there should be forget about timeshifting. Dax also reports that the quantum singularity is orbiting the station in a roughly elliptical pattern. O’Brien continues by saying the anomaly radiates temporal energy at certain points in its orbit which appears to be causing his timeshifts. His future self reaches the helm and initiates a crisis escape protocol, disengaging the docking clamps and immediately engaging full impulse. All three of the station’s runabouts hastily escape the vicinity as explosions cascade across the habitat ring.

It’s also worth noting that they were also rooted in character drama; and most of them were rooted around Miles O’Brien. Even the next season’s homage to Philip K. Dick, Whispers, was designed being an O’Brien-centric episode. Similar to Harry Kim on Voyager, it looks like O’Brien is the universe’s whipping boy. However, unlike Harry Kim, O’Brien is a character who is strong enough to anchor these stories. The fact that horrible techno-babble plots swarm around Harry Kim feel like trivia; when they swarm around O’Brien, it seems like tragedy.
After all, O’Brien seems to have knowledge of past jumps when he lives through them; he instantly recognises the conversation he has with Quark, for instance. In contrast, O’Brien seems like a tennis ball being thrown around. O’Brien may be the character who gets the most extreme reaction to his predicament, the only one who doesn’t appear to treat it just like a workshop given by the Department of Temporal Investigations. Even at the stage where O’Brien is exploiting this time around travel for their own advantage, he still seems world-weary. In the wardroom, Kira yells at the Romulans for insinuating she abandoned the Defiant prematurely through the battle with

• It fits the MO of the Romulans to use something like that to avoid Dominion invasion.
• It involves Romulan and Klingon politics, while also pointing forwards toward the Dominion and pointing back towards The Search.
• He continues to describe the way the Romulans generally prefer to relax and pull the strings from the distance should they can, and though Kira replies she is one puppet who doesn’t like her strings pulled, she accepts his orders.
• The chief grabs Quark

Meanwhile, a Romulan delegation arrives on the station, expecting an intelligence report on the Dominion. In “Visionary,” O’Brien finds himself jumping around in time, observing himself getting involved in events which occur hours in the future–including their own death. It’s possible that a problem that’s been plaguing me for over two decades might soon be remedied! Thanks to a long time of serious dental problems and dental work, I’m just a little cagey about sitting in the chair. Thinking about all this, I could barely even concentrate on the TV today and therefore, only watched two episodes. Actually, I watched one episode twice because I realized I hadn’t paid attention sufficiently the first time. Anyway, today’s post is actually about an episode I watched yesterday.

Recently On Late To The Overall Game Blog:

Bashir is confused by the fact that O’Brien does not have any sign of radiation in his cells, of which point he realizes it’s future-O’Brien. Sisko questions O’Brien on his latest timeshift, asking for any clue of how the station could be destroyed. O’Brien says he noticed some explosions along the habitat ring but it all happened so fast he couldn’t get a clear sense of just what was going on. The commander orders a silent preparation for evacuation should it have to arrived at that, but he doesn’t want to do whatever would alarm their enemy into attacking sooner.

It’s a view that argues that patterns recur as the people making those patterns share the same essential characteristics as the individuals who made those decisions before. Deep Space Nine suggests a more specific form of that argument. In a universe as time passes travel, history can generally be said to be stable because people generally act according to their own natures. That said, the fact that Visionary is firmly grounded gives it a little more weight compared to the average techno-babble-driven episode of Voyager. The interactions between Bashir and O’Brien feel like a genuine friendship – even their a reaction to O’Brien’s death feels as though two good friends bickering about personal betrayals. There’s a quirky humanity to O’Brien’s plight here, as contrived and convenient as it might seem. For all the big ideas driving the plot, Visionary is anchored in the mundane.

Jake tells her he lost his father within an accident on the Defiant many decades ago. In those days, Ben Sisko disappeared to subspace, and since then reappeared on rare occasions, always near his son. The title of the episode is ambiguous and may make reference to the young woman as well as to Ben. While Jake first tried to cope with this situation and became an author, he later turned to science and took any effort to obtain his father back, but without success. Finally, the dilemma is resolved when old Jake dies and the bond between him and his father is torn. Back on the Defiant, Ben is aware of what would happen, and he can avoid the accident this time around. O’Brien travels to a turmoil in Quark’s Bar, again about 5 hours later on.
Then there’s the ending, which, thankfully, I saw unspoiled. In order to discover exactly what’s going to make the station explode in five hours, O’Brien decides he’s got to do another time-jump. But after they realize the truth concerning the Romulans, our O’Brien realizes he’s too ill to make the journey back.
Back Quarks bar, O’Brien soon finds himself leaping forward again only to get yourself a vision of his own dead body in the infirmary. There he encounters Bashir who informs past Miles what has killed him, indicating that rays ended up killing him unexpectedly because the Doctor missed the damage done to the basilar arteries in his brain stem.
