The week-long national syndication window opens for the 82nd episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Brock Peters (To Kill A Mockingbird) and Robert Foxworth (The Questor Tapes) guest star, with Foxworth choosing this role over his established recurring Babylon 5 character.
Stardate not given: A state of emergency has been declared on Earth, and armed Starfleet security officers are on the streets. But the activities of an elite cadre of Academy cadets on the night of the power outage arouse Sisko’s suspicions. He and Odo investigate, and learn that the sabotage was caused not by Changelings but by “Red Squad” under orders from Admiral Leyton, whose goal is to oust the President and take over Earth to fortify it against the Dominion. And Leyton is willing to do anything, even order one Starfleet ship to destroy another, to carry out his plans.
