Stardate not given: When she is going to visit a Cardassian outpost, Kira is surprised that she will travel on Dukat's ship Groumall. He was demoted to a freighter captain when he brought his half-Bajoran daughter, Tora Ziyal, to Cardassia. After the outpost has been destroyed by a Klingon Bird-of-Prey, Kira joins Dukat in an effort to outfit the freighter with improved tactical systems. In the hopes of redeeming himself, Kira and Dukat lure the Bird-of-Prey into a trap, making the crew of the warship believe that the freighter holds a valuable cargo of dilithium and then firing the newly installed disruptor. After seizing control of the Klingon ship, Kira transports the Klingon crew to the Groumall, whereupon Dukat destroys it. When he learns that the Cardassian Detapa Council intends to negotiate with the Klingons, Dukat decides to continue the fight against the enemy alone. Kira does not want to join his quest and takes Tora Ziyal to Deep Space 9.
