Okay episode that lays solid foundations

Worf goes missing and Ezri goes after him.

This one kicks off a number of plot threads that are not bad, but for me the majority of scenes are not particularly interesting.

Sisko spends a lot of screen time planning something that is fairly tedious for my own tastes, but does get better towards the end. Some of the early dialogue between Cassidy and him is full of awkward sounding exposition.

The scenes involving Worf and Ezri feel quite forced to create conflict and a predictable resolution. Michael Dorn and Nicole de Boer do their best with the material and it is not badly written, just slightly clichéd and unnecessary.

Marginally better are the Dominion and Cardassian scenes as they generate intrigue in relation to characters like Dukat, Dumar, and the female Changeling.

It is a necessary episode to watch for continuity and to prepare for what comes next.

Anecdotes
The episode begins a plot arc that will run through all remaining episodes until the finale. Each episode from this one on is one continuous cliffhanger - a storyline continuation never used before in any other Star Trek series. DS9 itself had done this before, on a smaller scale, with the first six episodes of season 6.

Gaffes
Colonel Kira finds Julian, Miles, and Ezri in the replimat to deliver the news that Worf is missing after his ship was destroyed. Informing them that a fellow member of the command crew is missing in a public space like that is highly inappropriate. A meeting of the station's command crew should have been called in the ward room or ops, with all staff members present.

Chief O'Brien: Captain Boday?
Doctor Bashir: The Gallamite. Jadzia dated him.
Chief O'Brien: Oh, the toothy smile and the transparent skull?
Doctor Bashir: That's him. -... - Personally, I don't know what Jadzia ever saw in the man.
Chief O'Brien: Well - his brains.
