Factory sealed DVD</br></br>Product Description</br></br>The complete second season of the TV series Star Trek Deep Space Nine.</br></br>Amazon.com</br></br>Only Kira Nerys would risk going to war over an earring. With the witty and wise second-season opener "The Homecoming??"the writers started taking chances with the direction of <I>Deep Space Nine</I>--and the payoffs are immediate and far-reaching. It's the first episode in a complex trilogy involving the fate of the tenuous Bajoran Provisional Government?? an extremist group called the Circle?? and a legendary member of the resistance whom Sisko believes might be able to unite Bajor. <p>  Continuing its blend of action?? mystery?? intergalactic politics?? and religion?? the second season gave prominent parts to Jadzia Dax ("ve Procedures??""Playing God??""Blood Oath")?? Kira Nerys ("he Collaborator??"in which Odo gives the first sign of his feelings toward her)?? the Cardassian Garak ("ardassians")?? Odo ("he Alternate")?? Chief O'Brien ("hispers??""Tribunal")?? Commander Sisko ("aradise")?? and Quark ("rofit and Loss")?? and Dr. Bashir developed relationships with both O'Brien ("rmageddon Game") and Garak ("The Wire").  <p>  Highlight episodes include the alternate-universe "Crossover??"which pays homage to the original series' "Mirror?? Mirror??"nd the two-part spotlight on the Maquis (first introduced in <I>The Next Generation</I>)?? a loose-knit organization of disenfranchised Federation colonists who resort to terrorist methods to provoke a new war between the Federation and the Cardassians.  By the end of season 2?? the only thing <I>DS9</I> lacked was a really good villain. It got three for the price of one. Turns out the Dominion (first discovered in the underappreciated Ferengi spotlight "les of Acquisition") is a trinity of evil: the Founders?? the Vorta?? and the Jem'Hadar?? those born-and-bred bad guys whose mission in life is to serve the Founders. The season-closer " Jem'Hadar" is an intelligent?? powerful episode that reveals all--and nothing--about the Dominion. <I>--Kayla Rigney</I></br><br/>http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00008972HH4h customer email support
