DS9 s3e7 “Civil Defense”
This was a triumph.
I’m making a note here:
HUGE SUCCESS.
It’s hard to overstate
my satisfaction.

We do what we must
because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones who are deadBut there’s no sense crying over every booboo
You just keep on trying 'til you run out of statues
And the killing gets done, so you replicate a gun
For the people who are still aliveAnd I can hear the ambient trills/beeping in my head.
Singing the song in Dukat’s voice is entertaining to imagine
You wouldn’t steal Odo’s bucket
And their bucket while you’re at it. If you can remember.
I bet Peanut Hamper would download a turret. She strikes me as just bonkers enough to override some security clearances.
Once it stuck to walls and slagged… So great
Ah slag, the scapegoat for forcing weapon variety on top of the bullet sponge late game mechanics. Still the best of the series, though.
… stuck to the wall, you say?
Stuck to the wall you say?
My favorite way to use it has to be the Nuke + Gemini Turret strategy. Toss one nuke at the enemy, drop the other right in front of yourself, immediately pack it back up, wait for cooldown, repeat.
I absolutely adore this scene. Not only does this maniacal genius weaponize the ops replicators on the off chance he needs that to happen, but they can never hurt him. So much so he can use the replicators as he pleases - this is thirsty work after all - while the whole room is set ablaze with lethal phaser fire.
I really need a gif of the whole “i’m thirsty waitasec” scene that’s before that last screengrab.
Just as he requests his tea is the closest I could find:
Beautiful. Thanks!
Replicator phaser: “Where are you?”
“Just try getting close to that baby. Ha! It’s your funeral.”
“Hey, stand in front of this!”
“You fellas meet the missus?”
