 Life seems to be slowly becoming normal on the station. Bashir tries to make advances to Dax, Jake makes friends with Nog and chief O Brien is having an argument with his wife Keiko. As a botanist she feels useless on the station and doesn t think the environment is good enough for their daughter Molly growing up. Meanwhile Odo encounters a familiar face on the Promenade: the Bajoran smuggler Ibudan. He s considered a hero by the Bajorans, but Odo thinks differently. He saw him let a child die because the parents couldn t afford the medicine and when Ibudan killed a Cardassian he turned him in. When Ibudan is murdered during a massage in the holodeck, all evidence points to Odo.
