Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - 01x06 Captive Pursuit

Summary: Stardate Unknown: A damaged ship exits the wormhole near Deep Space Nine and the Federation receives their first visitor from the Gamma Quadrant. Since O'Brien guided the visitor to one of the station's ports safely, Commander Sisko allows the Chief the luxury of first contact with the species. While the humanoid, referring to itself only as Tosk, takes in the sights and sounds of the station, Chief O'Brien, acting as his guide, tells him a bit about life in the Alpha Quadrant as he tries to find out more about the visitor.

MISTAKES/GOOFS

FACT: The operations crew tries to track the power drain by releasing tritium gas into the station's atmosphere. It is frequently mentioned that tritium is extremely toxic. However, tritium is simply a heavy form of hydrogen, which is not toxic even in fairly strong concentrations, provided there is oxygen present for people to breathe. The principal danger in a case like this is from igniting the oxygen-hydrogen (i.e. tritium) mixture, not from poisoning the station inhabitants.
