O'Brien helps his new friend, Tosk from the Gamma Quadrant, evade his pursuers. It's a Trek take on "The Most Dangerous Game," a short story by Richard Connell. "Captive Pursuit" is primarily an O'Brien development story but also provides nice moments for Odo - we find out he never carries weapons - and Sisko. We get a sense of Ben's leadership style, doing what's right over what's regulation - more Kirk than Picard, really. He trusts his people and often leads with a wink and a nod.
Michael Westmore and his staff won an Emmy for Makeup for "Captive Pursuit," one of three for DS9 in its first season.
