DS9 Discussion Post 6x11: 'Waltz'
1. What do each of the three people Dukat hallucinates represent?
2. We saw Kira, Weyoun, and Damar, but who else might have shown up in Dukat's hallucinations?
3. Does Dukat here seem consistent with his past characterisation?
4. Was the false rescue (well, true rescue for the two purpleshirts) trick a good one?
5. Is Starfleet's unwillingness to commit more ships to the search a sign of willful blindness to how important Sisko has become to the war?
6. Was there ever any real potential for the Respected Enemies bit that Dukat imagines exists between him and Sisko?
7. Was it Ziyal that sparked Dukat's eventual breakdown, or would his actions during the occupation have brought it on eventually anyway?
8. Was Julian out of line in suggesting they ignore their orders?
