He was there for a reason other than that.

So say we all…….
She had a changeling killed right there in this episode
Why would he not defend everyone? Has Riker never, you know, fired back?
could be set to stun lol.
Did anyone notice that either Worf or Raffi's phaser shoots beams not pew pew like Riker? I wonder why.
Beamers are stylish.
Stun shots in the new shows are blue IIRC. But I could be mistaken
Worf has a Nemesis hand phaser, that’s why his shoots beams. It’s not the same model as Riker’s or the rest of Starfleet. Raffi’s phaser is firing bolts like Riker’s.

At last, someone remembers The Last Starfighter!
oh.. nvm
Hope so! Looks like he hits four people...and we can tell from what Vadic does next that not all of the security officers are changelings.
It really says something about PIC Season 3, when I had a post yesterday that started with "Ouch. I'm only giving this episode an 8 out of 10." An 8 was the most common rating I used to give.
It took the highest stun setting (3.5) to have any kind of effect on the changelings of DS9, and these are apparently more advanced in just about every way.
We're assuming Kirk's family even knows about this and that his official death isn't still listed as 2293 aboard the maiden flight of the Enterprise-B. For all we know Kirk has been dead in the history books for over a century and retrieving his body was never officially reported outside the most need-to-know intelligence and Daystrom circles.
For all we know, Picard finding Kirk in the Nexus was classified. Most people probably think he died in 2293 and that was the end of it.
Me, reading this thread and seeing fans whine about “too much fan service:”
FFS people, allow yourselves some child like joy….just for a minute or two!!
But seeing Star Trek things in Star Trek is distracting or whatever. There is no past. We exist in the present only. All life is ephemeral.
Is it me or does the changeling plan not really make sense?
They infiltrated Starfleet and can infiltrate Daystrom personnel so can have any cover reason for moving Picard's body to another location. Why did they need to stage a theft of the portal weapon and have that first attack?
They could have just moved Picard's body and not been discovered instead of having the portal weapon attack to hide that they stole Picard's body. Either way, the theft of Picard's body still stayed a secret. I don't see how them planning that portal attack had any impact on them taking Picard's body and keeping that theft hidden.
Also, if the changelings hate the federation so much why did they use the portal weapon on a non federation world?

I believe Ro had not told Worf that Starfleet had been infiltrated. Why not if she trusted him? Why did she deny him trying to go to Daystrom to determine what was stolen? Why not tell him why he couldnt go? What was she going to have Worf and Raffi do then had she lived?
He also has the map to Luke Skywalker...
Let's call this new being Questor.
Why did you open those cargo bay doors!?
More like Armada 1.
It would have set expectations too high and lead to eventual disappointment with seasons 2 and 3.
Overall I rate this episode a 7/10. Definitely not as strong as last week's episode. Some nice nostalgia tempered by somewhat mundane plot stuff. Moriarty was a bust. It was nice to see Geordi again, but he's become a too much of a TV dad. Why would the Changelings take Picard's body when they could have taken something more destructive, like another Genesis device. Why is Kirk's body in a lab? Shouldn't he have been retrieved from Veridian III and buried on Earth? I wonder if a vial of Khan's "super-blood" is stored somewhere on this station too.
