* MakeMeWannaShout: O'Brien designs a sonic-based weapon to try and drive the voles out of the station. It proves to be good at deafening ''Quark'', at least.

* OpenMouthInsertFoot: When Sisko comes home early, Jake thinks O'Brien spilled the beats about his relationship, so he starts talking. After Sisko reacts with surprise over him dating a dabo girl, Jake realizes O'Brien didn't say anything as promised, so he has this reaction.

Added DiffLines:

* BeYourself: Jadzia tells Arjin that he needs to focus on his own course in life rather than just do what his father or teachers expect of him.


Added DiffLines:

* HypocriticalHumor: Sisko expresses disappointment that Jake was hiding a new relationship from him. He then freely admits to his son that he would not have been understanding if told the truth right away.

* RaceAgainstTheClock: When the crisis heats up, Sisko reflects in his log that he has to make a very big decision in one hour.


Added DiffLines:

* WhatTheHellHero: When Kira suggests destroying the protouniverse before the next expansion, Odo expresses outright disgust with her and calls such a suggestion mass murder. Kira likening the protouniverse's inhabitants to ants does not improve his mood.
-->'''Odo:''' Just because we don't understand a lifeform doesn't mean we can destroy it.


Added DiffLines:

* YouJustToldMe: Jake thinks Sisko knows about his new relationship, saying O'Brien promised not to tell. Sisko doesn't know what he's talking about, but he indulges the conversation rather than outright say that. After Jake admits he's dating a dabo girl, Sisko starts yelling and points out he never actually said that he knew what Jake was talking about.

After chatting with Jake about his new girlfriend, a dabo girl, Sisko thinks about the voles rampaging through the station, not caring about the destruction they cause. He decides not to act like a vole and orders the proto-universe to be taken back through the wormhole, hopefully to return it to where it came from. Dax finds Arjin and enlists his crack piloting. With a whole lot of {{technobabble}} support from the station, Dax and Arjin ditch the proto-universe and have to make it back without running in any verteron nodes. Arjin is unsure if such a feat is possible, but with Dax's moral support, he deftly flies them back to safety.

Arjin, a Trill seeking to become joined with a symbiont, has arrived on the station to be examined for two weeks by his field docent, Dax. Arjin is nervous to meet Dax because she (or rather her symbiont itself), is infamous for going hard on initiates. Bashir welcomes him to the station and introduces him to Dax, who is gambling with Ferengi. Arjin's first few interactions with Dax go smoothly enough. While displaying her confident, wise, and freewheeling lifestyle to the uptight Arjin, she assures him that ''Jadzia'' Dax is not the same person as Curzon Dax and won't go to hard on him.

Bidding Argin farewell, Dax tells him that this will look good on his host application. In the end, however, she tells him that she ''may'' some day recommend him to become a host... when he's ready. Once he leaves, Dax announces proudly to herself, "I'm not Curzon!"

* DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife: Jadzia notes that Arjin doesn't seem to have any ambitions or plans for the future--only vaguely noting that his options will open up if he's joined--and questions whether he even truly ''wants'' to be joined, especially in light of the fact that his father basically guilted him into entering the program. She tells him to figure out what ''really'' wants.

However, the more Dax gets to know Arjin, the less impressive he seems. He's insecure, meek, and obsequious. When Dax takes him through the wormhole, he can't even react to its beauty without simply echoing Dax's own thoughts, which she notes. Dax is going easy on him, noting that Curzon was her own field docent before she became joined wit his symbiont, and he flunked her, so she knows how traumatic that kind of approach can be. The one thing Arjin is good at is piloting, so Dax takes him on a trip through the wormhole. During the voyage, however, the pair's runabout picks up some sort of "space seaweed." Dax has it beamed to a lab and quarantined for study.
