Star Trek Deep Space Nine - DS9 - Odo Letting People Go

[@TheOmegaRiddler]

I like that in the first clip, he didn't care about the fact they were escaping. He's disappointed that he caught the one man who knows the station better than him.

[@simondaniel4028]

writers have a great understanding of odo

[@risingwind8943]

Odo loves justice, but he loves chasing a genius criminal just as much.

[@develynseether4426]

He may have worked for the Cardassians, but his only master was justice.

[@slade52]

And a legend was born...

[@fyou4641]

He killed at least one innocent man during the time he worked as a collaborator. sold out the resistance during the dominion invasion He was no justice just a hypocrite

[@K-11609]

@@slade52 One of Sisko's best lines and it isn't even the most impactful. It just works!

[@blastermasterguy]

And the greatest aspect justice can have...is MERCY.

3:31 this always reminds me of the 76th Rule of Acquisition "Every Once in A While Declare Peace it Confuses The Hell Out Of Your Enemes"

R.I.P Rene Auberjonois.

Odo never got hugged enough

[@christopherg2347]

Pretty sure he felt he was getting hugged _too much_ Especially at 2:45

[@Jayjay-qe6um]

Keep wondering why they never get Link😅😅.

[@mattakins3422]

Let. Go.

[@changaming1275]

I AGREE I want more people appreciating this man for being good ;-;

[@Puckanm]

THE bond ODO has for his friends is so so strong... He never even Hesitated to open the door. :) Man I lve DS9 it truly is one epic Story!

[@teleportedbreadfor3days]

He's been called cold, but in truth, his feelings are the strongest on DS9, and they last when he's not there. Odo's feelings are as healthy as Humans' but probably half the strength of Vulcans', if not around that. And if T'Pol from ENT and Picard mindmelding with Sarek has shown us anything, it's that Vulcan emotions are raw and very powerful.

[@theghostinthemirror8158]

@@teleportedbreadfor3days I got this too. I think changelings are obsessive by nature (to catastrophic effect when they hold grudges ex. Female changeling) but I think that it also intensifies Odo’s affection for his friends/love.

[@teleportedbreadfor3days]

@@theghostinthemirror8158 I don’t think that’s the case, but something did happen because of how Changelings maintain memories.

[@LordyT34]

Always remember that Odo believes in justice, not law. The two are not always the same

[@BlackDiamond2718]

The thing is law is flawed and justice is precise. Just that we cannot be so precise so that is why. But that is why in dungeons and dragons alignment is based between law and chaos and good and evil.

[@davidlordofthesquirrels9839]

An honorable mention for the 'Odo letting people go' series: "Captive Pursuit". Odo is at Ops when they discover that O'Brien is helping one of his new alien friends escape, and Odo starts to to go after him when Sisko tells him, "There's no rush" and Odo just... saunters over to the elevator, turns around, and waits for a bit.

[@TheCormTube]

Justice was his most important goal, but only if it was deserved.

[@BlackDiamond2718]

Well justice is getting exactly what you earn. Eye for an eye.

[@Vesperitis]

"So... you're not really doing this for me?" "That's right." I didn't know that Odo could lie that easily.

[@matwatson7947]

I think it was a bit of both. Odo had a massive sense of morals and justice. He was continually willing to enforce that despite what his superiors said... But... I think Quark hit it home. He would have done it anyway but not as easily and slightly begrudgingly.

[@snipersnest6088]

​@@matwatson7947 agreed.

[@zachanikwano]

René Auberjonois is literally the only reason I chose the House ending in Fallout New Vegas. All because of him being my favorite character in DS9… nah, favorite character in all of Star Trek.

[@vulkanofnocturne]

You made the right choice.

[@Soulraven2735]

That's why his voice sounded so familiar!

[@eMinorV1]

Justice is as abstract and complicated as life itself. You only have to adjust your methods, not your principles.

[@cirrustate8674]

These clips, and ESPECIALLY Major Kira's last line, makes me wonder what Odo and Malcom Reynolds would think of each other.

[@hyhena-gaming9986]

Holly shit I’d love taht crossover with those two, technically on opposite side of the law but both willing to do what they think is rightcdepite any consequences

[@jaystrickland4151]

Odo just wanted to see if chief Bryan could get people out of a holding cell and how he would do it

[@KenshiImmortalWolf]

Honestly i loved that little line "if anyone could of gotten someone out of a holding cell and off this station i thought it'd be you chief' it really does go to s how o'brein's reputation on the station. Honestly It's kind of ironic as O'brein is irish but he feels like the true succesor to scotty being a boarder line miracle worker in star fleet.

[@mattw5840]

That man is Morally Righteous!

[@skynetprime82]

I had many favorite characters from DS9 but Odo was my #1 favorite 🙂

[@hgwilt1]

Me too❤

[@2Scribble]

0:34 - I love how Odo doesn't want the Chief to say anything sappy xD

[@youtubeviewer4472]

"Nobody every had to teach me the 'justice trick'"

[@KENOMAN1969]

Classic Odo, " Let, go" 🤣🤣🤣

[@infinightsky]

That was a unique compilation; thanks

[@zachanikwano]

Ah yes my favorite tsundere security officer. 😍😍😂

[@tomwhone9804]

If you start watching at 2:40 it's very easy to get the wrong idea of what just happened.

[@philosopherscribe39]

Or the right idea 😂

[@joe9739]

No running on the promenade!

[@richtea615]

He did it his way.

[@Rustynuckles1]

odo allways gets his man

[@FioreCiliegia]

He just chooses to occasionally let them go afterwards ;)

[@changaming1275]

odo has a heart of gold deep down ;-;

[@StillJustDreaming]

Great clips! What episode was the second clip from? 0:50

[@TwinTn]

"Vortex" Season 1 episode 12.

[@StillJustDreaming]

@@TwinTn Thanks!

[@smileygabe22]

Never understood, O'Brian knows the station inside and out. How did he get caught!!?

[@davidranson3797]

I always thought that he was just too caught up emotionally in the situation to be able to think properly. Odo was right, it should have been a walk in the park for O'Brien. But when we are panicked and emotional we tend to make rash spur of the moment decisions rather than logical thought out ones.

[@reggiebadunkadunk]

Mr house??????

[@shreddalek]

Same person. My brain has been corrupted by Fallout and all I hear is Mr. House.

[@Scott-xj3bb]

DS9 was the best Star Trek franchise of all!

[@stephenmurray2851]

What is the first clip from?

[@shadowhunter0815]

Moses: "Let my people go!" Odo: "Hrmpf... Fine..." Moses: "Huh? Well that was easy." God: "Wait, what? No! I had this whole series of divine terrorism planned!" Odo: "And you are under arrest."

[@dudewatches6125]

So we are arresting the Bajoran Wormhole now?

[@johntrevy1]

In all fairness it is about time "God" has his day in court. Let's see the charges (alledged)............. Genocide, lying, crimes against humanity, rape, blackmail, corruption.

[@johntrevy1]

@Leo Peridot It is just an excuse for desiring political power.
