List of episodes |
Set in the 24th century, the series follows the adventures on the space station Deep Space Nine. This episode explores the Trill species, of which DS9 officer Jadzia Dax is a member: Jadzia and Dax are a host and symbiont, respectively, with the symbiont passed from host to host as the previous one dies. In this episode, Jadzia Dax undergoes a ritual that brings her face to face with the past hosts of Dax, forcing her to deal with feelings of inferiority as a Dax host herself. Meanwhile, the young Ferengi Nog takes a test as part of his application to Starfleet Academy, much to the dismay of his uncle Quark.
The episode achieved a Nielsen rating of 5.9 points when it debuted on syndicated television in June 1995.[1]
