With DS9 desperately in need of repair, O'Brien and a team of engineers head to the abandoned Cardassian space station Empok Nor, where the necessary materials are located. Also along for the ride is Garak (Andrew J. Robinson), who has orders to disable any existing Cardassian security measures. Upon their arrival, O'Brien and the team find themselves stranded and surrounded by a sinister squadron of "dead" Cardassian guards. First broadcast May 19, 1997, "Empok Nor" was scripted by Hans Beilmer, from a story by Bryan Fuller. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
