Episode Notes

The Magnificent Ferengi: It's never a good sign when Quark looks overly pleased with himself. Moogie has been captured... by the Dominion? And QUARK has to rescue her? Rom learns what Moogie has been up to. STONKS. All Nog needs is a good job title and he's in. Ferengi are negotiators, not warriors. Emo Vorta. Everything that can go wrong does. IGGY POP??? Nog discovers the Weekend at Bernies gambit. Maybe Ferengi are warriors? This whole episode is a sunday night RPG session (appreciative). Vorta malevolent curiosity. Only in a Ferengi episode would accidentally killing a hostage be ok. The best Trek episodes are ones where the actors are clearly enjoying themselves.

Waltz: Sisko and Dukat road trip gone wrong episode. Nebula-class chat. Dukat "saves" Sisko? Dukat is hallucinating a lot, but that's fine, right? Dukat has an interesting memory of his two stints as DS9 commander. Fake Kira might be even better than real Kira. Huh, maybe Dukat just needs to be removed from the Alpha Quadrant. This episode is deliciously uncomfortable. Dr. Cox??? Marc Olaimo put in the labor over the last 5.5 seasons in order for this episode to work.

Episode Notes

This episode breaks the 4th wall in a fascinating way. Introducing Benny Russell, and some almost-familiar faces. Casual 1950s racism and sexism. Imagining a better future. Armon gets to be the moral backbone of a story for once. In every reality, Odo is a fascist. You never quite expect to hear the hard-R n-word in Trek but here we are.

Episode Notes

First there's a lot of non-DS9 chat, sorry.

Who Mourns for Morn:

Quark has been holding Morn's seat via holo-Morn. But Morn has... died? The entire station shows up to his wake. Morn leaves everything to Quark, which is... nothing. Except for a painting of a matador. And a mud bath. And a naked woman. And a rumor of 1000 bricks of gold-pressed latinum. Quark gets threatened by the most Coen Brothers goons ever. Morn was... a prince? So many short cons. It's not latinum, it's just... worthless gold. Odo and Quark have boyfriend telepathy.

One Little Ship:

Time to do SCIENCE. Kira is genre aware and thinks it's hilarious to shrink members of the command crew. Nog covers for Worf. Intergenerational conflict among the JemHadar. Itty Bitty Photon Torpedoes. Maybe the Founders put a little too much Cardassian in the new Alphas.

Episode Notes

Jude gives himself a brevet promotion. We get a new category of DS9 Episode.

Content Warning: Jude speculates about anonymous sex encounters in Trek.

Honor Among Thieves:

Second closest we get to Mos Eisley in Trek. Starfleet Intelligence has a Really Bad Plan involving O'Brien and some racist pseudonyms. DS9 (the station) misses its dad. O'Brien gets into the Orion Syndicate. Shopping montage! The Syndicate is working with the Vorta? Specifically the Vorta from One Little Ship, so you know his ideas are good. We have some concerns about SI's sapient asset program.

Change of Heart:

Starfleet Intelligence has another Great Idea, this time involving Worf and Jadzia. A Cardassian Defector? How does a laser inject anticoagulants? Worf gets a Note in his Folder. They should not have been sent on a mission together anyway. Miles and Julian conspire(?) to beat Quark, but Quark 4-D chesses Julian in return. We would do war crimes for Dax.
