"T-Minus 40 Days" Sisko is called to Utopia Planitia Shipyards, his old command. The engineers there have constructed the U.S.S. Culmination, considered to be the ideal starship and one that will turn the tide of the war. It will launch in forty days. Unfortunately, the current commander of the shipyard has fallen ill, so Sisko will take his place during the final phase of construction. Sisko discovers several leaks about the Culmination to Dominion spies, and attempts to crack down on leaks and spies. After forty days, it's time for the launch of the Culmination, and Sisko realizes that the entire crew boarding the Culmination are actually Changelings! He tries to stop the launch, but it's too late. A Changeling sends a taunting message about how they've stolen the Culmination, but then it suddenly blows up. The ship was actually a giant barely functional trap designed to take out as many Changelings as possible, and Starfleet Intelligence didn't tell Sisko to increase realism.
