“Cardassians” 30th-anniversary reflections A biting boy in the replimat presents a mystery that leaves Garak’s arm in pain and puts the tailor’s suspected spy skills to the test. Teaming up with Bashir, he helps uncover the background behind this young Cardassian wearing a Bajoran earring. The boy turns out to be an orphan, left behind after the Occupation and adopted by a Bajoran family. But there is much more to the story than it first seems, and when it is discovered that the boy is actually the son of one of Gul Dukat’s opponents, Sisko’s decision to allow him to remain on Bajor or be returned to his father becomes all the more difficult. In this episode of The Orb, hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our 30th-anniversary retrospective that will take you through all of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, one episode at a time.
