The Sisko wouldn’t normally help Picard, but on that case he made an exception.
Frankly I thought Q was wasted on DS9. Like they didn’t want him there. Which is fine - it’s not QS9 after all, but the TNGs with Q are always great and they could have had some great ones. Instead they just had Sisko punch him in the face. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Well they did want to set DS9 apart from TNG. So having a captain totally cool with punching Q set the stage.
Of course, I believe right after that episode Q went straight back to go annoy Picard.
It’s also some good foreshadowing for stuff we don’t find out until literally the last episode.

One week later, literally.
“Picard never hit me!”
“I’m not Picard”
“Indeed not. You’re much easier to provoke. How fortunate for me.”
runs away like a little bitch and never comes back to DS9
No wonder Worf was intimidated by Sisko.
Now I wish Picard had punched him in that episode!
Halloween is an ancient earth tradition. For one day children in an earth colony, America, would scream “trick or treat” to garnish local favor.
An omnipotent deity can’t find a better person to pick his clothes? Psash.
He can, but he was cosplaying with the clothes judges start wearing after Trump took over the courts.
He also seems to like them, though, since he showed up that way more than once.
Only when playing judge.
“Don’t worry, Q. I’m just here to kick Picard’s borg ass.”
Punch the authoritarian directly in the face
Q, please show up so you can fuck these fascists to oblivion
If the Continuum’s told you once, they’ve told you a thousand times: DON’T - PROVOKE - THE BORG!
He most likely created this timeline… we’re living PIC S2…
What I enjoy about Q is that he seems to adapt to the environment he’s in and who he’s with. Spoilers be ahead, but I think we’re past that.
- In TNG he’s the ultimate antagonist to Picard’s intellect and diplomacy. This energizes him.
- Sisko is a half god who punches Q. He backs off and goes back to the playful one.
- Janeway
is a cold hearted killer who tells Q what’s uphelps Q navigate a conflict and bring factions together, much like they premise of Voyager. - Mariner most likely encountered Q as a child on the Ent D, so he has a playful and respectful report with her.
- Not touching Picard S2, although there were some fun parts
- Assuming T is Q jr from Voyager (not canon and BTS contradicts this, but it’s my current head canon), it’s logical that Q is more “mature” at this point, and doesn’t want to alter the timeline any further. Also, I love this as it nods to John’s head canon from S1 of TNG.
