Due to various medical emergencies, our Starfleet Academy episodes are going to have to wait a little while. Instead, here’s an old favourite episode: “They Exploded Odo!”
We experience the original Mirror Universe episode and try to understand a system of government entirely based around betrayal (that isn’t the Romulans’), also a fantastic episode of DS9 with some shock as there’s a pretty brutal explosion of one cast member!
