Upper Pylon 2 – 6 x 04: Behind the Lines
This week on UPS, Smonskey and Chris break down the re-emergence of the Female Changeling into the war arc in “Behind the Lines.”
Kira’s resistance plans take a turn for the worst when the Female Changeling arrives on the station, hindering Odo’s judgment in the process. With the minefield set to be dismantled within a week, will the resistance be able to stop the Dominion before the reinforcements pour in from the Gamma Quadrant? Meanwhile, Sisko is forced to adapt to flying a desk after he is relieved of command from the Defiant and promoted to work with Admiral Ross. Can he let go while Dax captains the ship on a dangerous mission?
Tune in to find out, and as always, be sure to leave us your feedback!

When he gets word of cloaked missles heading for Cardassian space, Sisko enlists the help of convict Michael Eddington in tracking them down and putting a stop to them. But tensions are high, leaving the distinct possibility that one of the two men will not walk away alive.

Upper Pylon 2 – 5 x 22: Children of Time
This week on UP2, the crew takes a look at what turned out to be an extremely divisive episode with “Children of Time.”

On the surface, they come face to face with their descendants, generations left behind long after the Defiant crashed on the planet. While Sisko and the crew work on a way to return to DS9 in their own time, their descendants further their ulterior motives, leaving Kira’s life hanging in the balance.
