Past Tense, part II
"Bell" takes charge of the hostage situation, insisting that the sanctuary's residents demand more than just a way out for themselves. He meets with a government official and demands that employment acts be reactivated so the unemployed are given the chance to become productive members of society, eliminating the need for the sanctuary districts. In the sanctuary, tensions rise between the hostages and their captors. Sisko and Bashir do what they can to keep both parties in check. When the government storms the sanctuary district, Sisko finds himself in the same position as Gabriel Bell did, according to the history books - he will mostly likely be killed in the raid and become a martyr.
