Daddy Vicc (DS9 S7E10)

When Ensign Nog returns to the station with a new leg, he’s still up in his head about how much it hurts. But when he stops participating in his rehabilitation, he’ll need the kind of therapy only a hologram can provide. How fucked up is Sisko’s recipe for carrot cake? What’s more traumatizing, dip-to-white transitions, or this episode’s fade to commercial? Is Vic Fontaine the stuff of a creepy-wet-hair nightmare? It’s the one where we stack up opportunities to not feel bad.
