S2E04: Invasive Procedures; S2E05: Cardassians
Invasive Procedures: The senior staff--and Quark. The lived experiences of Trill washouts. Jude has questions about Trill, and so do the rest of us. Bashir shows some skills. B5 crossover via stunt doubling! What makes Sisko great?
S2E7: Rules of Acquisition; S2E8: Necessary Evil
Jude can't do IKEA. Or social situations.
Rules of Acquisition: Out of all the Starfleet captains, Sisko gets Ferengi. THIS is how The Dominion is introduced? This is accidentally a screwball comedy.
S2E09: Second Sight; S2E10: Sanctuary
Second Sight: Everyone is so supportive of Sisko getting back out there. They want Captain Dad to be happy. The fact that the anniversary of Wolf 359 goes by without notice tells you when this show was. Nog Sex Ed again. The sub-genre of one-episode Trek romances.

S2E13: Armageddon Game; S2E14: Whispers
We promise, we get to the episodes EVENTUALLY.
Armageddon Game: A true "O'Brien Must Suffer" episode. The triumphant return of the warcrimes airhorn. Jude makes Ninja Turtles assumptions.
S2E15: Paradise; S2E16: Shadow Play; S2E17: Playing God
S2E15: Paradise S2E16: Shadow Play S2E17: Playing God
Paradise: (CW: incest vibes discussion at one point). Shrek Energy. Dax's BDSM experience. O'Brien and Sisko's interesting comrades-in-arms relationship.
Welcoming the Wolf 359 Project to our rumpus room
Justen, Ana, and special guest Andy discuss the Borg, the complexities of Starfleet, and fan works. Also, what happens when Alpha and Beta canon collide with the fan work you're doing.
S2E18: Profit and Loss; S2E19: Blood Oath
Profit and Loss: A Cardassian with two names? A Meaty Slap.
S2E20-21 The Maquis
S2E20-21 The Maquis
Justen comes by their star trek bullshit honestly.
