Jake was great in the episode where Sisko died and Jake grew old and kept trying desperately to bring his father back.
That episode was an amazing episode, it was right up with the one where Sisko shattered the Romulon Dominion alliance with the help Of Garack.

and Jake was a good background character who would throw in strong performances like the one in "Take me out to the Ball Game"
