Rene Auberjonois is center stage in this DS9 story. Odo gets a glimmer of hope
that he might reunite with others of his kind.
It all comes from a fight on the space station between some aliens. One is killed and the other wounded. Cliff DeYoung the wounded one tells there are others like Odoin the Gamma Quadrant. And it turns out he's wanted for murder on another world so Odo is given the task to escort DeYoung.
The viewer also is given tantalizing bits and pieces of what a changeling society is like. It whets one's appetite for more.
And a season or two later all about changelings is revealed.
