I am just so terribly excited to see more of this show, my friends! I WANT IT TO RUIN ME.<\/p>\n

So, let’s go over my last batch of predictions first:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. THE DOMINION WILL BE THE MAIN PLOT IN THIS SEASON.\u00c2\u00a0Indeed they were!<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll see more Founders.\u00c2\u00a0AHHHH THEY ARE EVERYWHERE.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. I will be tricked twice by a Changeling pretending to be someone.\u00c2\u00a0INDEED I WAS, OH MY GOD.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. MORE KASIDY YATES. LOTS MORE.\u00c2\u00a0So much more, and then none at all. \ud83d\ude41<\/strong><\/li>\n
  5. The Odo\/Kira relationship will be explored at LEAST once.\u00c2\u00a0Explored? More like abandoned.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  6. Another Garak + Julian episode.\u00c2\u00a0YES. MORE.\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  7. There will be a Gul Dukat episode too!\u00c2\u00a0YES. MORE OF THESE.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  8. Another episode with Keiko in it!\u00c2\u00a0More than one, which is always good!\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  9. The dart board will be retired.\u00c2\u00a0It was not, but just you wait. Molly will soon dominate these fools.\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  10. I want Morn to have an episode as well.\u00c2\u00a0PLEASE, HE DESERVES ONE.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  11. The Sisko beard will stay.\u00c2\u00a0We are at peak attractive with Sisko.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  12. Jake will accept the writing fellowship and leave DS9.\u00c2\u00a0I’m glad he didn’t, JUST KIDDING HE DID IN “THE VISITOR” AND I WILL NEVER RECOVER.\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  13. We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll get an update about Quark\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s and Rom\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s mom.\u00c2\u00a0Moogie is doing fine!<\/strong><\/li>\n
  14. NOG GETS INTO STARFLEET.\u00c2\u00a0YES YES YES YES YES.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  15. Jadzia goes on a date.\u00c2\u00a0Huh, nope.\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  16. JADZIA DESTROYS SOMEONE.\u00c2\u00a0She does this (emotionally) like once an episode, so it counts.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  17. The end of season 4: The Federation can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t hold off the Dominion any longer, and they invade the Alpha Quadrant.\u00c2\u00a0I’m saving this for season 5, y’all.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    A so-so performance, but I have thoughts about season 5.<\/p>\n

    Predictions for Season 5<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. At some point, Odo is turned back into a Changeling.<\/li>\n
    2. We’ll get an entire episode about him adjusting to being a human, though.<\/li>\n
    3. Kira will give birth to the O’Briens’ son.<\/li>\n
    4. Nog will graduate from Starfleet.<\/li>\n
    5. Well get an episode about Quark and the ramifications of “Body Parts.”<\/li>\n
    6. We will get 100% confirmation that Gowron is a Changeling.<\/li>\n
    7. We’ll find out that the Changelings have infiltrated other organizations and governments.<\/li>\n
    8. We will watch as the Dominion slowly de-stabilizes the Alpha Quadrant.<\/li>\n
    9. Jake will accept the writing fellowship and leave the station.<\/li>\n
    10. We will see Kasidy Yates again.<\/li>\n
    11. We’ll see the Mirror Universe characters once.<\/li>\n
    12. Kira and Shakaar will break up by the end of the season.<\/li>\n
    13. We’ll get a Worf-centric episode.<\/li>\n
    14. There will be a Jadzia and Trill-centric episode, too.<\/li>\n
    15. And this season will end with the Dominion invasion of the Alpha Quadrant. I THINK THE SHOW WILL GO THERE.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Onwards I go, friends!<\/p>\n
