It's a shame because Nicole is a much better actress than Terry was - she's got great timing, is genuine and believable and of course, easy on the eyes. But her character is so clueless and self-absorbed. Every word that came out of Garak's mouth in "Afterimage" was met by her musing on her own failings and situation. Ugh!
Then the scene at the replimat with Julian. "If Worf hadn't come along, it would have been you." I know she's young, but she has Jadzia's memories - how could she be so clueless that she didn't know how much her "assurance" would hurt him?

I don't know why the writers couldn't have made her a competent officer, like all the other characters. It would have been easy to preserve the conflict that her presence created, even if she was considerate and accomplished.
