Quark (Armin Shimerman) receives a mysterious Bajoran earring which was smuggled out of a prison camp on Cardassia IV. Major Kira (Nana Visitor) recognizes it as belonging to Li Nalas (Richard Beymer), a legendary Bajoran resistance fighter. Planning a rescue, she begs Commander Sisko (Avery Brooks) for a Runabout. He agrees, but insists that O'Brien (Colm Meaney) must accompany her. Meanwhile, graffiti bearing the insignia of The Circle, an extremist group that wants to rid Bajor of all outsiders, is found on the station.

On Cardassia IV, Kira and O'Brien execute a daring rescue and return to the station with Li and the other survivors. Later, Bajoran Minister Jaro (Frank Langella) arrives to welcome Li home and, much to Sisko's dismay, announces that Li will be the new Liaison Officer to Deep Space Nine. Part one of three.

After Major Kira (Nana Visitor) is recalled to Bajor, more graffiti from the extremist group The Circle is found around the station. While Commander Sisko (Avery Brooks) fights to have Kira reinstated, Vedek Bareil (Philip Anglim) invites her to his monastery where she experiences a series of strange visions.

Back on the station, Odo (René Auberjonois) learns that the Kressari have been supplying arms to The Circle. Shapeshifting his way onto a Kressari freighter, he discovers that is the Cardassians who are behind the arms shipments!

When Kira is kidnapped and taken to The Circle's hideout, she finds Minister Jaro (Frank Langella) is the leader. Now, with Bajor set to erupt into full-scale revolution, assault vessels race toward the station. But rather than evacuate, Sisko plans to make one last stand. Part two of three.
