Blood Oath

[Mogatu]

Hi, I'm new here.I was looking at lists of top ten DS9 episodes and I was surprised to see the
Blood Oath was not on the list.I feel its an Underrated episode.Watch it again.Does anyone agree? It should at least make #10 or better.

I wouldn't say it's top 10, but certainly top 20. Interestingly, the Rules of Acquisition Podcast is covering "Blood Oath" next week. Sure to be some good insight. I'd say it's easily a top-3 Dax episode, but there are too many pivotal plot-moving episodes to count this as top 10.
