Danger outside - and within. An unexpected Dominion-Cardassian alliance threatens the station with war, but a more imminent threat operates secretly at close range. The station's Dr. Bashir (Alexander Siddig) is actually a changeling bent on carrying out a Dominion plan of sabotage. Meantime, DS9 captives in a remote Dominion internment camp execute their own plan to escape. While Worf (Michael Dorn) takes on all challengers in a Jem'Hadar battle arena, Garak (Andrew J. Robinson) and the real Bashir work to reconfigure a concealed transmitter that could beam them to safety...and allow them to send a warning that will alert station command to the false Bashir's mission of doom.

Starfleet knows a good doctor when it sees one. That's why the organization selected Dr. Julian Bashir (Alexander Siddig) as the template for the new LMH - the highly advanced Longterm Medical Hologram.

"It is nothing less than a shot at immortality," proclaims Dr. Zimmerman (Robert Picardo), the medical scientist who arrives at DS9 to create a comprehensive psychological profile of Bashir. It's also nothing less than a shot at being booted out of Starfleet. Because a thorough investigation into Bashir's past could reveal a secret that he has carefully kept hidden for decades - a secret that violates a fundamental Federation law.
