    My vote this round goes to "PROPHET MOTIVE". A solid Ferengi episode, and a nice Bashir B plot.

    Voting Time’s Orphan, because it’s the only episode left not on my skip list.

    Definitely Meridian. Dax falling in love in a second was stupid, but Meridian contained the funniest scene in the whole series, when that guy walks into the holodeck expecting to see and have sex with a Kira hologram and instead sees Quark’s head atop of Kira’s body.

    Prophet Motive, for the same reasons I gave last time. Which takes it out of the running and resets.

    "Second Sight" I don't like the back half, but I do like the first half. I always liked anything that was late-night on the Promenade, that was a great atmosphere, and the first half is all that.

    Another vote for Time’s Orphan. That and Chrystalis are the only ones left I actually watch.

    "SECOND SIGHT" for me this round. The late night Promenade views were great, and a rare treat. And while the execution may be sonewhat off, the idea of the episode was a good one.

    Plus we got some good new shots of the Nebula class.

    Time's Orphan; it would probably have made for a better TNG episode, but it's not really that bad at all, just not very memorable.

    I still say Meridian. The B Holodeck story was hysterical.

    I guess I'll throw one to Time's Orphan, a classic torture O'Brien episode of which they were so fond. When you're down to the dregs, you can't be too picky.

    I'll eliminate Time's Orphan with my vote, as I find it more average then anything else. It's a decent enough O'Brien vehicle, and I love the little Worf B-plot.

    Chrysalis; it's bland, and probably an unnecessary sequel, but not as actively bad as the others here.

    I'll vote for Chrysalis as well. I like the Doe Rae Me song they sing, and it's nice to see the Jack-pack again. The trouble for me is the lifeless romance between Bashir and Sarina, which Bashir shouldn't have entered at all.

    I vote Chrystalis. I sometimes skip it but not always. Its only major problem is making Bashir look like an unprofessional creep. But it has some fun scenes.

    The rest of the episodes left I think I skipped the last three times through.

    Chrysalis. Of the ones left, it's the only one I can actually sit through, although I agree about Bashir coming across as a creep. Chrysalis is removed, and here's the reset.

    I can vote for Second Sight, as the least bad episode left. Richard Kiley plays an interesting role as Seyetik, though nothing else is memorable for me here.
