Tribunal DS9 Season 2, Episode 25

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season 2 Episodes 25 "Tribunal" explained. Join me as I review and recap the episode where O'Brien is arrested by the Cardassians as he is being framed for smuggling weapons to the Maquis. And they put him on "trail", and they keep uses the language of a trial such as "lawyers", "judges", "winning cases", but the universal translator must be malfunctioning because this clearly isn't a trial, it's a propaganda show piece. And frankly this episode is boring, it tries to use dark humor that I don't find funny, and it's the beginning of the whole "O'Brien must suffer" trope which frankly I find to be lazy writing. Come see my first reaction as I breakdown the episode and attempt to give my in depth analysis
