Visionary

Stardate not given: As preparations are being made for an arriving party of Romulans, O’Brien is the victim of a power conduit explosion in Ops and suffers some mild radiation poisoning. An unexpected side-effect of this – which even Bashir cannot explain – is a series of apparent trips into the not too distant future. At first, his visions predict relatively innocuous events, such as a conversation with Quark and a bar brawl between visiting parties of Romulans and Klingons on the Promenade. But when O’Brien experiences such events as the sight of his own death and the evacuation and destruction of DS9, the whole crew takes notice.
