Obviously I knew Charlie slept with Julian and caught HIV. What an #indiscretion! I couldn‘t imagine all that Fiona and many, many gay men went through in the early eighties. Terrible. And lots of kids today don‘t even bother with condoms and casual sex. Pisses me off. (I‘m a righteous ace, lol!) It‘s hard for me to believe that as a child of late 80s early 90s sex education. #StarTrekSummerJune

BkClubCare Yep, Roman REALLY made me mad. 5y

Ha ha ha!! I love a bad pun 🤣🤣🤣🤣

This episode was pretty good overall, but I don't care for efforts to try to make Gul Dukat a sympathetic character in any way. I prefer him cold and reptilian, a monster who will stab friend or foe to get what he wants.

DS9 4.05 #Indiscretion In which we learn that Dukat is not only a genocidal creep, but a philandering creep too. We meet Tora Ziyal, his half-Bajoran daughter (and how does that work biologically?) in her 1st of 3 incarnations. Funny how in English-language fiction “indiscretion“ is almost always a euphemism for ill-advised sex, however discreetly had, when it really should only mean not minding one's business (see tagged). #startreksummerjune

tournevis The episode also features one of DS9's purest slapstick scenes, pictured here, with Dukat's butt being the literal butt of the joke. 5y
Clare-Dragonfly I wonder how “indiscretion” came to be a euphemism for a sexual affair. 🤔 5y
tournevis @Clare-Dragonfly I wish I knew. It's come over to French in the last two decades too (I blame dubbed US tv) but it makes very little sense. The whole point of an affair is it's gonna be discreet. 5y
