As for the very final scene, let's have a completely unrelated episode, and then a background character...
Admiral Buenamigo: Computer, end simulation (Buenamigo smiles proudly and walks away from the holodeck)
And then that scene is halted
Mariner: Computer, stop simulation! Really, Boims? Is this the better ending you could come up with for the Vindictaverse? All a simulation of a character from another series? You can do something better! Something like an army of small shuttles against a Dominion battle station, and then one manages to blow up the reactor! A dying Q snaps his fingers and all the Jem'A'Dar turn into dust! An all-out battle between our universe and the Mirror universe! Paris and Torres crying because their baby has died! Anything but this!
Boimler: I'm sure I have seen those endings at some holonovels... what about a deal with the devil, but as a musical? Would that work as a series finale?
Mariner: You're a lost cause, Boims!
