mllelaurelA question for Them That Know DS9:
Why in the world would the number of the first episode be listed as #721? And the consequent episodes start at #403 and keep going up.
Buh? (I swear, this really is Season 1. I checked.) So very confused.

The rest of the number gives you a general idea of when in the season it takes place. 41590.33 would be approximately mid season.
Hmm. Here's an idea. #721 is probably the production number. Because some of the TNG characters show up, it may have been batched with the Next Gen episodes when in production.
