PATRON TIER LIST - DS9 S3E1 - The Search Part 1

Perfect episode

Voted "A". The Search Part I is the weaker part in my opinion. They fly to the Gamma Quadrant. Play a bit of hide and seek with the Jem'Hadar, drop off Quark when he's no longer needed for the plot. Get abducted. And in the last five minutes finally find the Changelings, just in time for "to be continued". It's fine, but it's all just setup for the truly good stuff in Part II. A-/B+.

Part 1: A-/B+ just because part 2 is “all a dream” and annoying me so Part 2: B. But of course DS9 as a whole is S tier I get a little nitpicky when I dissect each individual episode. Also Star Trek part 2 are always harder to pull off. In my opinion.
