Star Trek: Every Two-Parter Ranked From WORST To BEST

8. Improbable Cause, The Die Is Cast

"You blew up your own shop, Garak!" Well, of course he did! The truth is usually just an excuse for a lack of explosives. Improbable Cause and The Die Is Cast gave us a few more answers to the mystery that was Garak. The rest was the same lie twice, and a horrendous time for Odo.

Factually, this was the first two-parter in Star Trek to have two separate names, although The Homecoming and The Circle both ended on 'To Be Continued,' and concluded in The Siege. Also a matter of record, Improbable Cause and The Die Is Cast began life as a standalone episode that eventually evolved to become two.

That late-stage decision meant that both episodes were shot out of sequence — Through the Looking Glass was filmed before The Die Is Cast. An isolinear rod a day won't keep the Obsidian Order away!
