Kratak sadržaj: (preuzeto sa ST centra)
Dok su radili na konzoli za preradu rude, O'Brien i Jake slučajno aktiviraju kardasijanski sigurnosni program, koji zarobi O'Briena, Jakea i Siska u toj prostoriji. Širom čitave postaje, monitori počnu prikazivati staru poruku gula Dukata. Riječ je o svojevrsnom upozorenju stvorenom za slučaj pobune bajorskih robova na obradi rudače tijekom kardasijanske okupacije.

Background info:
* This episode had an extremely difficult gestation. According to Ira Steven Behr, "It was one of those back-breaking, horrible, horrible experiences," although he does acknowledge that "it was terrific at the end." The original pitch by Mike Krohn was intended as a bottle show, and while the basic man-against-machine element of the plot was fine, the problem, according to Ronald D. Moore, was in trying to find a way "to make the jeopardy intriguing, to find the inner story." By the time of production, virtually every writer on the staff had had a go at the script, but every single draft was rejected by Michael Piller. According to Behr, Piller called him at 8.00am on a Monday morning to tell him, "I hate to say this Ira, but I'm not buying any of it - it's not working." In the end, after much work, the staff finally got together a script which Piller approved, and the episode was green-lit, but even then, there were more problems. According to Behr, "The writing process turned out as painful and disgusting as we thought it would be." However, he does acknowledge that "in the end, it turned out solid, with some nice twists and some great stuff for Garak and Dukat, and the paired up teams." (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion)
* "Civil Defense" resembles the Voyager episode "Worst Case Scenario". In both episodes the crew trigger a computer program which they are unable to shut down and which proves life-threatening. In "Civil Defense", the program becoming a threat to the crew was accidental. In "Worst Case Scenario", however, the program had been placed there specifically for that purpose.
* This episode builds upon the antagonism between Gul Dukat and Garak which was first hinted at in the second season episode "Cardassians". It would next be seen in the fourth season episode "The Way of the Warrior".
* This is the first episode where we see Dukat express a desire for Kira, something that would return many times in the future, perhaps seen at its most forceful in the fourth season episode "Return to Grace" and the sixth season episode "A Time to Stand". In this episode however, his attempt to impress her is treated humorously, something which displeased Nana Visitor. According to Visitor, "I would have liked my character to make the point that only a few years earlier, Dukat's wanting me would have meant that he could have had me, and I wouldn't have been able to do a thing about it. So it shouldn't have been seen as a 'cute' moment. It was actually a horrifying moment, one that would make Kira feel disgust and panic. To Kira, Dukat is Hitler. She's not ever going to get over that. She can never forgive him, and that is important to me. Kira may have started to see Cardassians as individuals, but she will always hate Dukat." (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion) In subsequent episodes, Dukat's longing for Kira would take on a much less humorous tone.
* The belt which Odo wore for the first six episodes of this season disappears in this episode. Rene Auberjonois had originally asked for the belt because he liked the look of the belt which costume designer Robert Blackman had designed for the all-black outfit in "Crossover". However, on the beige costume, Auberjonois felt that the belt looked "Buck Rogers-y" and asked if he could remove it. Kira finally notices the difference in "Crossfire". (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion)
* This episode was the first to mention Quark's cousin, Gaila. Josh Pais plays the character in the episodes "Business as Usual" (Season 5) and "The Magnificent Ferengi" (Season 6).

Jake i obrien su pokrenuli kataklizmu
Stari program kontra pobunjenika se aktivirao i zatvorio cijelu postaju , zapravo je fascinantno koliko se dukat puta snimio i koliko je bio paranoican da bi predvidio sve situacije , koje se mogu desit za vrijeme pobune >:)
Ovakva situacija je i pogodovala druzenju quarka sa odom , sta je rezultiralo time da odo kaze da je quark najpodmukliji ferengi ali na kraju je quark otkrio bolnu istinu , za oda je on samo "sitni lopov i varalica "
Dukat se ponasao poprilicno samouvjereno , cak je i trazio povratak svojih trupa na postaju ali kardassianska paranoja nema kraja i kad je pokusao otic i njega je zablokiralo
Garak i dukat se ne podnose , ocito je garak imao nekakve veze sa smrcu dukatova oca i zbog toga ga ovaj ne podnosi
Na kraju su "rudari" jake , obrien i benjamin sisko , morali spasavat situaciju , suljajuci se vrucim cijevima i preusmjeravajuci izboj u stitove
obrien je zamalo preminuo unutra a jake je ispao junak kad ga je spasio , sve skupa jedna od meni drazih epizoda

Kako zakon epizoda ,dokaz da postaja nije samo Kard. krama vec da posjeduje jako super stvari ,kojima se Bajor i Federacija mogu braniti od Dominije .

meni je epizoda bila jako dobra,pogotovo kad su se garak i dukat međusobno j*bali u zdrav mozak i odove i quarkove rasprave

dobra epizoda.
i pojavljuje se legenda Dukat.
(kako je samo zahebavao Kiru )
i zapravo mi je fora bilo vidjeti taj automatizirani program i kako je Dukat uspio unaprijed predvidjeti sve poteze eventualnih "pobunjenika".
steta sto nije u kalkulacije ukljucio i onog legata koji mu je na kraju onemogucio bijeg. (btw, dobra je bila ta scena kad je ostao onako... paf tamo nasred Opsa )
bilo je i dobro, kako je vec receno, ono prepucavanje između Garaka i Dukata.

jedino sto mi se na kraju cijela situacija ucinila nekako malo prenategnuta i malo vjerojatna. mislim, fora je bi otaj automatizirani program, ali nekako mi je najprije cudno da bi jedan Dukat tako nesto imao. (Garak, ajde jos da, ali Dukat? mislim on je bio na postaji i uvijek je mogao sam reagirati. a i sam program, koliko god priniciv, i dalje ostaje nefleksibilan. pa i sad smo vidjeli kako se u biti pokazao nao nezeljena smetnja)
plus, malo mi je nevjerojatno da su tako nesto otkrili tek sad nakon par godina sto su zivjeli na postaji i prckali po kompjuteru cijelo to vrijeme.
i to sto u biti nisu potrazili takve stvari cim su dosli na postaju.

Užasno realan trenutak mi je bio kada računalo vrišti x minuta do uništenja postaje, a Sisko, O'Brien i Sisko Jr. se vuku po hodnicima ko na špancirfestu kako bi spasili postaju...

da, i to sto kazes.
i kakoje Sisko nepogresivo znao koji od onih tridesetak stapica treba izvuci, u kojem redosljedu, i na koje mjesto ih treba preseliti.
jer, dakako, to svi zapovjednici postaja znaju.

Pogotovo kada se radi o kardaškoj postaji.

ma kardasijanci, oni su to od pocetka gradili tako da kad ih jednog dana pokori federacija sve tehnologija bude 100% kompatibilna, te da bude intuitivno razumljiva svim casnicina Flote.
e, to ti je planiranje unaprijed!

Ma to je Sisku samo došao trenutak inspiracije zbog straha. Milivoj je ključni faktor koji inače drži tu postaju u jednom komadu.

Epizoda mi i nije bog zna kako sjela... da nije bilo par zanimljivih trenutaka (i pojavljivanje Garaka), dao bih 5 ili 6...

Zanimljivi trenuci bi kao sto ste ih i vi ostali naveli oni kad je Garak poklopio Dukata da nek se ne sepuri prek kirom (ko da bi Kira ikada htjela biti s ex-okupatorom....), i Dukatovo iznenadjenje kad je vidio da mu je i nadredjeni apgrejdao program da i Dukata za**be ako pokusa pobjeci

Odo i Quark - zijeeeeev.... taj njihov odnos je kroz vecinu seriju nekako infantilno prikazan.... jedva vise od comic reliefa....
