Regardless of blame or guilt or even justification… Picard was still the face- the only real face.

Humans are messy. Sisko could intellectually recognize all this and still have that face bring up boatloads of trauma and grief.

TNG that would have been a side comment from Troi and forgotten halfway through the episode.

    To be fair to TNG, in my mind, it’s a trilogy with “family” where they actually had some continuity.

    I hated that episode when I was a kid because after the big adventure it seemed boring. I can now appreciate it and Patrick Stewart acting still gets me when he breaks down in front of his brother.

    Of course they forgot about it next episode and never talked about it again but…
