Story: Playing God
Written By: Jim Trombetta and Michael Piller
Series: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
Year: 1994

A Trill comes to the station, he is an initiate of the symbiont program, and his mentor is to be Jadzia Dax…but the Dax symbiont has a reputation of denying candidates. Jadzia herself was initially denied by Curzon. But she feels she is not like Curzon, she is Jadzia.
The thing is this kid really does not seem like he either wants the symbiont, nor cares about the results…but he is fulfilling the wishes of his father. It is an alright episode, and at least it deals with the subject of Trills and Dax and actually spends a good chunk of time actually focusing on Dax.
