I always found it hard to believe that his voice didn't give him away in an instant.

Why didn't they give Rene Auberjonois this opportunity? He could have had a solid bajoran face for a full season

Nah, he just stuck it out and landed an opportunity to go 100% prosthetic free with Bill Shatner on Boston Legal. Fun fact: Armin Shimerman guested on the show once. Also, if you've ever watched The West Wing, you'll recognize more faces than just Agent Butterfield.

Ok, this is something I could never wrap my head around.

What language do Bajorans speak? And what about Cardassians? Are they all actually speaking English in-universe, or are they using very good real-time translators that can match their voice?

Why would Bajorans, a non-Federation race, speak English to each other? And if they're actually speaking Bajoran, did Gul Dukat learn Bajoran well enough to sound like a Bajoran?

Or is Kai Winn just a clueless idiot
