Upper Pylon 2 – 3 x 08: Meridian
This may be the shortest episode on record of UP2, as we could barely muster up enough enthusiasm to talk about the sleaze-fest known as “Meridian.” During a mapping mission in the Gamma Quadrant, the Defiant discovers a planet that phases in and out of existence every 60 years. This leads to one of those one-episode romances between Dax and some creeper that we all love so much. Meanwhile, Quark tries desperately to get a...

Meanwhile, Sisko intervenes in Jake’s (creepy?) love life and finally meets Mardah, his dabo girl...
