"There's A Scene Where Rene's Face Is Peeling Off And Kind Of Wasting Away. And I Don't Think I've Ever

Screen cap from the Star Trek DS9 episode The Die is Cast. Odo is deteriorating and Garak is close to him pleading with him to divulge something so that the interrogation can end.

"There's a scene where Rene's face is peeling off and kind of wasting away. And I don't think I've ever had more fun in terms of the intensity of the scene where [Odo and Garak] are huddled together. And, in fact, I kept telling them to put their faces closer and closer together. So the intimacy of it was incredible. It was almost like a love story in a nonsexual way." - Director David Livingston re: the interrogation scene from the Star Trek DS9 episode The Die is Cast.

This episode was just on Pluto TV. And I thought it an appropriate time to fully capture the director's exact words about the scene above.

One of my favorite things about DS9 is how Miles is just a dude. We got 300yo worms and a genetically engineered superhuman and whatever is going on with Sisko and the prophets (which is just the Star Fleet officers not including whole other planets of aliens) but in the middle of it all there is a dude from Dublin who is, in every way, just a dad trying to fix his lawnmower and it’s great.

The way Quark launches himself at the security guard stationed in front of Odo's quarters after finding out the founder hadn't left Odo's quarters in 3 days was the gayest fucking thing I've ever seen in my life.
