7.10 - It’s Only A Paper Moon

Here are some notes from Memory Alpha. I thought the 2nd one especially important:

• [Aron Eisenberg’s] favorite scene is when Nog breaks into tears; “It wasn’t written that way. The script just said that Nog gets emotional. When we were ready to shoot, I realized that I had to cry. It was the defining moment of what the episode was all about. You finally see what’s inside that’s gotten Nog to this point. Up until then, you didn’t know why he was behaving that way. I grew that day as an actor.” (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion)
• After this episode aired, Eisenberg was contacted by a number of combat veterans who told him that his performance was extremely true to life, and who complimented him on his work. (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion)
