"To the Death" is the 95th episode of the television series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, the 23rd episode of the fourth season.
Sisko and his crew join a Jem'Hadar team to prevent renegade Jem'Hadar from using a gateway that can transport them anywhere in the galaxy.
After a group of Jem'Hadar in a stolen freighter attack Deep Space Nine, Sisko pursues the vessel into the Gamma Quadrant aboard the Defiant with Worf, Dax, Odo, and O'Brien. The crew comes upon a disabled Jem'Hadar warship which is transmitting a distress signal. The Defiant then transports aboard the survivors: six Jem'Hadar soldiers and Weyoun, their Vorta master. Weyoun reveals that they were attacked by the same Jem'Hadar who surprised Deep Space Nine. He then tells Sisko privately that the attackers are Jem'Hadar renegades who have turned against the Dominion and are trying to restore an ancient Iconian Gateway - a sophisticated Transporter that would give them the power to go anywhere instantaneously. This could give them the potential to take over the Gamma Quadrant and eventually even the Federation. Sisko agrees to join Weyoun and destroy the Gateway, which is located on the surface of a remote planet. Weyoun also offers Sisko the position as the leader of the Alpha Quadrant, as Weyoun believes the Federation will soon fall to the Dominion. Sisko declines Weyoun and tells him not to be so certain that the Federation will fall. Nevertheless, Sisko agrees they have a more dangerous opponent.
