Vacation's over
Bashir leaves for a vacation on Risa. On the
transport ship he meets Tessa Blake. She invites Bashir to her
room for an intimate encounter with a phaser. Bashir awakens
aboard a Maquis freighter. Tessa needed a doctor for a Maquis
assault on a Cardassian prison camp, where prisoners from
missing Federation and Maquis vessels have been reported. The
assault proceeds far too easily and the entire force is captured
by Cardassians.

Victims of deceit
Gul Dulcet, the Cardassian commander, and a protege of Gul
Dukat, has plans for Garak and no use for Bashir, Sisko, and the
Maquis. Injured trying to help a wounded prisoner, Bashir finds
himself in the infirmary where he learns that Tessa is a doctor
and has cooperated with the Cardassians because they have
promised to release her brother, a member of Chakotay's Maquis
crew, whom the Cardassians claim to have captured. Bashir
escapes and frees the others, just as Kira arrives in the
Defiant. Dulcet and Tessa escape. Tessa discovers she has made a
fatal mistake, and Dulcet learns that trusting Dukat may have
fatal consequences as well.
