* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: One would think that a story about Jadzia getting separated from Dax would be a fascinating character study of which personality traits really originate from which half of the whole, and finally give Jadzia some character development as an individual (as nearly all of what we learn about her throughout the series is really just learning the basics about her species). Instead, Jadzia spends most of the episode unconscious, and Dax is treated as little more than a memory bank for its current host to access.

* IdiotPlot: Another episode which could have been completely avoided had Starfleet employed more than one security officer to an entire space station. Even with the station having been evacuated, it's rather sad that the command crew of [=DS9=] are taken hostage and held for several hours by T'Kar and Mareel. For that matter, T'Kar and Mareel spend most of the episode letting the two walk around freely, including sitting by consoles and in groups where they can whisper to each other, and the two only occasionally brandish phasers at them. With any semblance of competence, the crew should have been able to turn the tables on their attackers and free themselves within a few minutes.

Added DiffLines:

* RootingForTheEmpire: Some fans who thought Jadzia Dax was boring wished that the much more expressive and driven Verad Dax became a permanent replacement.
