Episode Details

In the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode, "Captive Pursuit," say hello to our first visitor from the Gamma Quadrant. He is Tosk... and that's about all we know until a group of heavily-armed aliens show up looking for him. They say Tosk was born to be hunted, but O'Brien says he's a sentient being with a right to live. What does Tosk want? And how will the Prime Directive sway Sisko's decision to help him?
