Odo begins his recovery from the deadly disease as Dr. Bashir informs him of Section 31’s intentions of wiping out his race. A resistance mission goes bad for Kira and Garak and they end up hiding in the basement of the house that Garak grew up in, where they learned that Legate Damar has apparently become a casualty of war, despite him also hiding with them. Quark is chosen by the Grand Nagas as his successor upon his impending retirement to Risa.
