Please, please, please set aside two hours to watch the original “The Trouble with Tribbles” (Star Trek [s2e15]) followed immediately by this episode of ST:DS9. You will laugh, you will cry, you will cheer with joy, as Sisko and the DS9 crew find themselves back with Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Klingons, and tribbles at Deep Station K-7 on Stardate 4523.7. —Michael Main

Over the years, people of all ages and walks of life have been abducted. Now, 4400 of them have returned to a glen outside of Seattle, all at the same time and without any aging or memory of where—or when—they’ve been. We get to see how they fit back in or don’t, how they react to hostilities, how they use their powers such as young Maia Skouris who sees the future, 17-year-old bio-phenom Shawn Farrell who now has an eye for Nikki (not so young any more), and Richard who no longer has his life threatened for loving a white woman whom he’s managed to impregnate without sex.
