Fun Stuff
Trivia:
The cover image of the "Galaxy" magazine that Sisko purchases from the newsstand is the same image as the one used for the aerial shots of Starbase 11 in "Star Trek" (1966) for the episodes "Star Trek: The Menagerie: Part I (#1.11)" (1966), "Star Trek: The Menagerie: Part II (#1.12)" (1966) and "Star Trek: Court Martial (#1.20)" (1967). moreGoofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Michael Dorn's character Willie Hawkins enters the bar for the first time, he accidentally calls Penny Johnson's character by the name of Kassidy instead of Cassie. 'Kassidy' is Johnson's role name on Deep Space Nine. moreQuotes:
Douglas Pabst: You see, Albert's got the right idea. He's not interested in Negros or whites, he writes about robots.Herbert Rossoff: That's because he is a robot.

Cirroc Lofton's line (you know the one) still takes my breath away.
All by itself "DS9" always showed more progressiveness and more social conscience than the other "Trek"'s combined.
The story is a fanciful conceit, and a breather from the season's arc, but it still stands as "Trek"'s best address of racial issues, and also serves as a reminder that it's a little depressing that "DS9" is the least popular "Trek" in terms of syndication value and DVD sales.
If you don't know the show, this one is a good, arc-independent introduction. And if you do know the show, you will always remember falling off your chair when Cirroc Lofton said "that line."
This episode never places highly in fan polls, but it's one of the best.
