## Resource

We’re back on Deep Space Nine, and the stakes are getting personal. This week we look at Season 2, episodes 19–21, “Blood Oath,” “The Maquis, Part I,” and “The Maquis, Part II.” From Jadzia Dax’s fierce loyalty to a Klingon pact of vengeance, to Sisko’s moral balancing act in the face of Federation rebellion, these episodes test where duty ends and conviction begins. Join us as we talk honor, politics, and the messy heart of the DMZ.
