[edit] Plot summary
Sloan shows up in Julian Bashir's quarters, baited by the fake announcement of a cure to the changelings' plague. When Sloan sees no way to get out of Bashir's interrogation, he kills himself. Bashir, with Miles O'Brien, use an "optronic engrammatic interpreter" to infiltrate Sloan's mind. Seconds before total brain death, Bashir and O'Brien escape, having obtained the chemical formula for the cure. Aside from some brief discomfort, Odo is completely cured after being given the cure.
