One Little Ship – Ft. Clay
Description
O'Brien, Dax, and Bashir are shrunk down to "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids" size while exploring an anomaly. Meanwhile, the Defiant is attacked and captured by Jem'Hadar, leaving the tiny runabout and tiny O'Brien, Dax, and Bashir no choice but to take their miniature ship and selves into the Defiant to retake it. Fortunately, it's a tiny ship that can still shoot tiny photon torpedoes! DS9 returns to a sci-fi concept episode while still keeping the focus on the Dominion threat, and the result is an episode with a whole bunch of plots and information and tones. Clay and Wes discuss an episode that refuses to take things too seriously and ends up feeling like the whole is less than the sum of its parts.
Plus, the guys discuss the physics of being small, the whole being less than the sums of its parts, and revising the Jem'Hadar!

With DS9 over, Wes and Clay get together to give some final thoughts about the series as a whole.
Is DS9 better than TNG? Does it matter? The guys try to understand the complexities that make DS9 unique and both amazing and awful (but mostly amazing).

This is it. The final episode of DS9.
"What You Leave Behind" serves to close out both the Dominion War and the series itself. It has action, drama, comedy and retrospection in spades. It's a brilliant ending to a fascinating series.
But it's not perfect.
In this podcast, Wes and Clay...
