Re: Weyoun -- I was so distracted by the fact that Harriman was being played by Jeffrey Combs that I kept expecting Harriman to do a major turnaround and turn into a worse bad guy than Ben-Zeyn. Poor guy is totally typecast in the sci-fi world, I fear.
I fear that the reason we never saw Harriman again after this episode was that he got in BIIIIIG trouble with Bester...poor guy.
And, re: the issue of Ben-Zeyn not having a clear complaint to begin with -- was that actually his intent? I mean, I thought he (a) was a nut job, and (b) was out for revenge against Sinclair for getting the job he got passed over for. An empty revenge, at best, since Sinclair didn't even realize that Ben-Zeyn was on that list till Garibaldi looked it up for him. YMMV, of course, but I didn't think that B-Z really thought he would actually get Sinclair fired.
