Stardate 50715.5: Tekeny Ghemor, the high-ranking Cardassian who once thought that Kira was his long-missing daughter, appears at the station. He is going to die soon, but not before revealing to his family the secrets he holds. As Ghemor doesn't seem to have any living relatives, he has elected his "daughter" Kira. She grudgingly agrees, seeing the opportunity to learn something to be used against the abhorred Cardassian-Dominion alliance. But then Gul Dukat appears and demands Ghemor to be turned over to him. He provides Kira with a military record stating that Ghemor, as a young man, took part in a massacre on Bajor. Kira turns away from Ghemor in disgust, but then remembers how she left her father to die when he needed her most. She joins the Cardassian in his last moments and buries him next to her father.
