But you don't know who's the changling. He could be pretending to be a locked up Bashir to get them to shoot the real one. (Were they on stun settings? Would that work?)
did you see what that phaser did to the wall behind it? nah dog that’s not stun mode 🤣
Just shoot them all first and let Glob sort it out
At least aiming their phasers while they were unsure would have given them a chance to react once the changeling transformed.
I mean, rule #1 of firearm safety is not to point the loud end at something you don't want to kill, certainly not a colleague... not sure what they teach on day one of Phaser School but I suspect it's not too far off!
Certainly not the fucking medic.
Of course, but when you don't know who is a deadly foe, there's a bit more subtlety than having to be defenseless because you aren't certain. The risks can never be reduced to zero, and the safety of you and your team can't be ignored.
I bet the first thing they teach you is to set the phasers to stun
