* Ghemor goes to serve breakfast to his son, only to have to reassure the panicking young man that no, the housemaid wasn't punished for talking with him.

* The mere idea that a governmental intelligence service would make you believe your whole life was abusive in a way or another, would give you a DarkSecret that makes you fear for you very life, just because they think it would make you so paranoid your effectiveness as TheMole would be enhanced. ''Fucked. '''Up'''.''

** The brief, oh-so-chilling reminder that Cardassians need an escort on the station, as leaving them unprotected might cause a repetition of what happened to Aamin Marritza.
Added DiffLines:
* Richard and Amsha Bashir being a realistic example of {{Gaslighting}}, insisting on their narrative and belittling their son every time he tries to make his voice heard, to the point that Julian is too tired to do so.

** From Julian's viewpoint, formerly friendly people are suddenly fearful and hostile towards him, only because he ''might'' belong to an ethnicity they have bad blood with, no matter how much he was nice and helpful to them. It really doesn't help with his fears regarding his possible outing as an augment.

* His whole life, Julian knew what would happen to him if he was caught and unmasked as genetically engineered: imprisoned into a mental institution without any hope for parole. No, him being a child at the time and unable to meaningfully consent won't matter -- the Federation ''is'' going to treat him as the second coming of Khan Noonien Singh.
