DS9 DS9 Season 5

Blaze of Glory – Ft. Darren

Sisko is forced to recruit the treasonous Michael Eddington to stop the Maquis from bombing Cardassia Prime. The old foes square off in verbal gymnastics and against the J’em Hadar as they try to prevent a war that could destroy the Alpha Quadrant. But can Eddington be trusted? Or will he push Sisko to the brink?

Blaze of Glory is the farewell to Eddington and the Maquis (in DS9) and it wraps up yet another plot thread as the series moves towards the end of season five. Eddington’s characterization and motivations have been a problem for us in the past, but does Blaze of Glory rectify and clarify, or muddy and confuse?

Darren joins the show to discuss the conception of the Maquis, the confusing nature of the Sisko-Eddington relationship, and the liberation one finds in growing tomatoes!
