Good episode. Badly done science for trek.

Warning: Spoilers
A number of huge mistakes with this episode:

1. How did this super weapon get in the Delta quadrant again?! 2. Torres was able to reprogram this thing from the Cardassians but can't reprogram it from her own programming?! 3. And this is my biggest problem with this episode: HOW THE HELL DID THE EVIL CARDASSIANS HAVE THE CAPABILITY OF HAVING SUCH A POWERFUL WESPON AND DO NITHING WITH IT!!!!!!!

I mean the Cardassians are this egotistical, power hungry, scheming race doing everything they can to get the upper hand in the Alpha quadrant - even join the dominion. And here they are with what is essentially a drone that can wipe out a fleet of starships??!!! WTF?! This totally upsets the delicate race/ship/technology/power balance we have become accustomed to since TNG. bottom line is that if the Cardassians had these they would have used them to conquer the alpha quadrant. Not sit on them quietly and let them be stolen by terrorists. Annoyingly this episode was done well and the effects and script was good. If only they kept the show true to the science it has done so well since TOS.
