When SAM is under pressure from the makers on Kasq, getting into a new class about the unexplainable puts her on the trail of another important emissary. But after exploring the life and legacy of the Sisko, SAM learns she no longer has to defend her choices to succeed. Who didn’t get screeners? Which stunt was shot like a ConAir explosion? What is the propellor hat of confections? It’s the episode that treats DS9 like a sacred text.
Really good interview, I’m glad she’s doing so much press in support of the episode.
It’s kind of nuts that this is her first episodic TV credit - she’s been very open about how that process works, both here and elsewhere (her interview with Cirroc on The 7th Rule is good, too).
