When Odo and Major Kira chase a Marquis ship into the badlands the land on a small unstable moon and separate to find the pilot. Soon Odo hears a shout and finds Kira has trapped by a strange crystal which has encased her foot. At first neither is really concerned but when they can't break it they get a bit more concerned. Fireing a phaser at it merely causes it to grow more quickly. As it grows they get more and more desperate and by the time it is almost up to her neck Kira orders Odo to leave her before he is harmed by one of the regular earthquakes; he however refuses as he won't leave the woman he loves. In a secondary story Nog tries to convince Commander Sisko to help him join Star Fleet.
The main story was decent and it was nice to see Odo state how he feels for Kira, even if everything isn't quite what it initially appears. Surprisingly the secondary story will prove to be more important to the series in the long run as it sees an important change in Nog's character that will ultimately see him become a valued member of Star Fleet.
