You have to stand up and give an ovation to the Cardassian Obsidian Order for the absolute insanity they are willing to go through to expose a suspected dissent leader. You would think they would just surgically alter one of there own operatives to look like Illana but this is the Obsidian order we are talking about here. I suppose they needed the voice to match? Those sticklers.
This is another one of those episodes that helps to soften the overall image of Cardassians. At times the Cardassians can come off as frothing at the mouth villians so it is nice to see the softer side to them. Kira knows how insane the Cardassians can be ---- They had that human spy kicking around for 8 years in that O'Brien Cardassian episode a ---- It's not out of the realm of possibility that she could actually be a Cardassian agent. Nana Vistor does an excellent job conveying what must be a nightmare experience.
When watching this episode it gives me the same feeling I would get when my philosophy teacher would start lecturing about what is reality and truth. Ultimately you end up going down a huge rabbit hole and you are not left uncertain if there is truth and if this is reality.
