* TroubledProduction:
** The extensive final battle sequence went WAY over budget, though [[ShootTheMoney you definitely see the results on screen]].
** The "Root Beer" scene between Quark and Garak was a late addition, and there was some confusion over the tone they were going for. At first it was played very comically, until Behr came to set and said it was [[ActionFilmQuietDramaScene to be taken as seriously and literal as possible]].

* WagTheDirector: Creator/MichaelDorn had two stipulations for joining the show: no more [[TheWorfEffect using him to prove the villains threat]] and wanted to be clearly different from other Klingons. Worf beating up Martoks' son to get his attention, plus ordering prune juice at Quarks, was to set the new tone for Worf on [=DS9=].

Added DiffLines:

* WritingByTheSeatOfYourPants: The introduction of Worf and the Klingon campaign against the Cardassians was not intended as part of the overall MythArc of the show, "Homefront" and "Paradise Lost" was the planned season opener until the decision to bring in Creator/MichaelDorn as Worf into the show. While Ira Steven Behr still felt the Klingon-as-antagonist arc (which lasts until mid season-five) was out of place on the show, him and many of the writers agree this did serve to build up the Dominion as a threat even further.

* ThrowItIn: The "root beer" scene between Quark and Garak was written at the last minute because, once filming was over, they figured out they were short a couple minutes on the episode and needed one more scene. Then, once the effects for the battle scenes were complete, the episode came in long and the root beer scene was nearly cut. Creator/RonMoore fought tooth and nail to keep it in, as it was his favorite part of the episode.

* MethodActing: A fine example by Andrew Robinson as Garak in the "root beer" scene. He genuinely looked disgusted at the taste of root beer.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The plot of what would eventually become "Homefront" and "Paradise Lost" was originally pitched to close Season 3 and open Season 4. However, Paramount suggested they "shake things up," leading to them adding Worf and having Klingons as enemies again.
