SISKO: Eight years ago, to replace the real Raymond Boone who was taken prisoner at Setlik Three... and apparently killed in detention.
SISKO: His ex-wife told us he came back from captivity a different man. She blamed it on the treatment he received from the Cardassians. But it started us thinking...
ODO: This trial was never about your husband, Mrs O'Brien. It was designed from the beginning to discredit the Federation, to show that the Maquis had their official sanction. Gul Evek's testimony made it clear that the situation had become untenable.
SISKO: Exactly. When Makbar saw Boone in the courtroom, she realised that we had the goods to embarrass the High Command in front of the entire populace.
SISKO: Oh no, no, no. I had to use all of my influence to extend your accommodations at the lagoon. We'll drop you off on our way home.
Well we breezed through that episode in about a week. Hard to believe the last one took over two months even for a two-parter.
Wow, and I missed most of it! Yeesh! I suspect it probably has a lot to do with the episode in question as to the time it takes to go through it.
