Synopsis

After arriving at Deep Space 9, Ibudan, a Bajoran murderer recently released from prison, tangles with Security Chief Odo. When Ibudan is murdered in a holosuite, the evidence points to a shapeshifter as the guilty party. Odo, who had vowed to remove Ibudan from Deep Space 9 at any cost, is accused of the crime. Soon an angry group of Bajorans comes looking for justice and Commander Sisko is forced to relieve Odo of duty.

Notes

This was the first episode filmed after the pilot episode ("Emissary"), but was aired after "Past Prologue". It contains quite a few supplementary facts about Trills and Dax and Sisko's relationship.
Keiko, who was a Starfleet Botanist on the Enterprise now finds herself very unhappy with nothing to do. With Sisko's approval, she opens a Federation school on the station. Jake, Nog, and two Bajoran children attend the first day.
