An interesting episode that continues the explore the the ideals of starfleet being in conflict with a unofficial wet work squad. I always find these episodes fascinating because starfleet is essentially a group of grown boy/girl scouts with the right stuff and being able to dip a toe in the unsavory aspects of human reality is a nice diversion from time to time.
Bashir gets played like a fiddle in this episode. I actually think he took the reveal well ----- I would be throwing stuff. I am pondering if the deputy chief of starfleet security was killed by Romulans or was killed in some master chess movie by Sloan to set up this whole revenge ploy to begin with?
All and all it is a solid espionage episode. Sloan is one of those quietly menacing characters that you know is one step ahead and that's always fascinating to watch play out on screen --- well, at least to me.
