A Star Trek hero like Kirk letting the love of his life die to save the future is the darkest way for such an adventure to end. The later DS9 episode “Past Tense” is dark from the beginning, with Sisko and Bashir trapped in a time period where the homeless, the sick, and the poor are ghettoized into so-called “Sanctuary Districts.”
History records that things only improve after a man named Gabriel Bell riots against this injustice, but when the real Bell dies, Sisko takes his place to preserve the future, putting his life in major jeopardy.
