Could you be more specific? Episode name? Scene or episode synopsis? I watched it very recently but I need a little more to go on.

Then Frank freaking Langella pops up, parts way through the same unbelievable episode, to chew the scenery like a boss. And, in an absolute power move, he drops that shit and goes completely uncredited and unpaid for doing it. He says he did it for his kids, I think he did it because he's just that talented, and humility can be a boss move when you're that good.
Had to pull it up but recognised it immediately.
"A party, oh!" - Quark
But for real, you're totally on the mark on how each of them pivot from each other, how Kira hits eats of them
"these ar- these are my friends" - Kira
Really shows how sh'es grown. I love the double take, and pause when she first is about to blurt it out, then says it more sincerly to Bareil. Thanks for pointing this out and reminding me of how awesome #DS9 is.
She grew against her own will. Not uncommon but very difficult to portray. And it never would have worked if Nana Visitor hadn't had the chops to pull it off, and the writers had the writing talent to write it. We really lucked out with DS9, they hit it out of the park so many times and in so many different ways, week after week for years.
I had to go look it up so thanks for reminding me about that scene! I only recently got into star trek and the thing that surprised me the most about it was stuff like this. I had this idea that it was always high-concept sci-fi, but scenes like this are really what makes it special. With ds9 especially every character is so fleshed out and interesting, and it really makes me want to just watch them be together.
How dare you compare the perfection that is DS9 to Sorkin's drivel
