Although this was interesting to see the growth process of the Jem'Hadar and their accelerated aging, I'm not a fan of this species, just another race that only wants to fight. I suppose in order for a show to work, there does need to be some form of conflict, an antagonist so none more ruthless than the Jem'Hadar, other than Delta-quadrant-dwellers such as the Borg and the Hirogen. And though I'm not a huge fan of the Jem'Hadar, I find the 3-way structure of the Changelings, Vorta and Jem'Hadar to be interesting.
My main issue with the episode is Jake Sisco and his mommy-issues. Now although the actress is only 2 years older than Cirroc, she is supposed to be older in the show. Last time I checked, a 20 year old dating a 16 year old is not only creepy, but illegal. It only gets worse in a future episode where, under the influence of Lwxana Troi's projected Betezoid abilities, he starts chasing after Major Kira. I never really liked Jake as a character and I find his obsession with older women to be creepy when he's still just a teenager.
Aside from the creepiness, this was also a good episode for Odo. We get to see him work with the young Jem'Hadar which serves as good character development for both Odo and the Jem'Hadar as a race.
Definitely worth a watch!
