"In the end, ... Dukat killed her."BladeCollector wrote: Tue Sep 27, 2022 3:02 amShe basically was conned by Dukat who was posing as a Bajoran farmer to turn her back on the Prophets and release the Pah-Wraiths. In the end, the Pah-Wraiths chose Dukat not her (obvious to us, not to her) and Dukat killed her as he was possessed by the Pah-Wraiths, at the moment she finally realized that Sisko was the emissary to the Prophets. That's a cliff's notes summary of course.

She died Friday and was 88 years old.
Fletcher is most famous for playing Nurse Ratched in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" but of course to us she'll forever be known as Winn. She was a character that we loved to hate, and she really got a comeuppance in the DS9 series finale!
She didn't win no Oscar for her DS9 role , whatever that was. Which leads me to:
What happened to her in the DS9 finale? Did they space her a la Ebony Maw?
Good. She was quite the "witch with a B" in Cuckoo's Nest; really a monstrous tyrant.
And she never really paid for all the misery she inflicted except for getting a bruised neck when Nicholson's character (McMurphy) tried to strangle her.
Thanks for the link, BC... I will check it out.
