[The part in DS9, “Far Beyond the Stars,” when Sisko gets fired from the magazine and he breaks down is some of the most powerful acting I’ve seen in Star Trek. I cry every time. The episode is brilliant. And it’s so refreshing to see the actors play different characters.]

[Far Beyond the Stars is a very (maybe the most?) important DS9 episode showing us how far we’ve come and how far we have left to go. It is a beautiful story.]
