Talk:The Darkness and the Light (episode)

Rules of Acquisition

 * Worf tells Jadzia that he knows the Rules of Acquisition because he is a Starfleet Academy graduate. However, first contact between the Federation and the Ferengi occurred seven years after he graduated, in 2364. Worf should know because he was on that mission in TNG: "The Last Outpost".

I don't think Worf was saying he learned the Rules at the Academy. He was probably saying that as he was a graduate of Starfleet Academy he had the intuition to learn them. Excelsior 15:36, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * "I am a Starfleet Academy graduate. I know many things." The full quotation lends itself to the above opinion, that he has the intuition to pick things up. Larus 17:51, 15 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Astronomical phemomena names
Where do these appear in the episode? On a screen or a PADD? -- Tough Little Ship 21:40, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Several names of people and astronomical locations can be seen on a viewscreen, namely a "Suspect cross reference - Shakaar Resistance" when Kira breaks into Odo's office to find out, who might be suspects. --Jörg 11:27, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Supernumerary
After the explosion in the quarters of O'Brien, Odo said "Where's Kira?" Then we cut to scene 36 in the interior of the habitat ring. Before Kira appears, we see a non descript supernumerary heading away. She looks like Nicole de Boer, who played Ezri Dax. This is about 35 minutes in to the episode if watched on TV (which is 60 minutes, with commercials interspersed). Can someone confirm or deny this? --Htam 20:02, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Watched it. It's an ensign in sciences blue, but not Ezri Dax. --Jörg 08:58, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Watched this last night, I was thinking the same thing. She not Ezri Dax, this extra appeared here and there elsewhere this episode.Joeloveland 14:11, 27 April 2009 (UTC)


 * I thought I'd recognize her, too. She looked very Ezri to me. [sts]

Suspect list
Here's the suspect list seen very briefly in the episode, including many well known names. I added those names to a new subsection on the episode page, "Additional References". --Jörg 13:15, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Sisko's Comm-badge
Due to a uniform production error, Captain Sisko's Comm-badge appears too high on his uniform this season, beginning with the previous episode. This episode, in some scenes his comm-badge appears too high, above the gray area.Joeloveland 14:11, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
