   Summary

   Commander Benjamin Sisko is looking forward to a quiet family evening with his son Jake — until his plans for the evening are suddenly disrupted by an official report claiming that one of his crewmembers was witnessed having a heated altercation with a high-ranking Starfleet admiral in Quark’s.

   Of course, the officer in question turns out to be Bashir. Who else?

   When Sisko confronts Bashir about the incident, the young man refuses to explain what the altercation was about. Even worse, he openly defies Sisko’s orders to apologize to the admiral, his behavior bordering on insubordination. Sisko is in no mood for the doctor’s games. When he confines Bashir to the brig to give him time to reflect on his inappropriate behavior, he has no idea what horrible chain of events he is about to set in motion.
