Get ready for an exciting new season of Because That’s What Heroes Do. In this season, they take a deep dive into their favorite 15 episodes of Deep Space 9. In this exploration, Tom and Megan are joined by Star Trek maven Alex Murphy (Murphy) from Montreal, who is a local historian and cinema and tv fan with a love for weird foreign films, all things horror, and obscure media. He has been watching Trek since he was a tiny punk, and it’s been a lifelong love. In this episode, the team reviews the start of a two-part ending of the first phase of the Dominion war with Favor the Bold.

They discuss pivotal moments and character developments as the Dominion tightens its grip on the station, forcing Sisko and his crew to adapt their strategies. Key character interactions include Kira under Dominion rule, Odo’s complex relationship with the female changeling, and the emotional growth of Rom and Quark. The episode also introduces new characters and sets the stage for the concluding chapter in ‘Sacrifice of Angels.’ The hosts explore themes of loyalty, sacrifice, and the moral complexities faced by the characters, offering deeper insights into the larger narrative of DS9.
