Spoilers Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

[MarkB]

It's a very fun episode, like it's very stupid but most of the cast understood the assignment

They may have understood it, but they didn't necessarily like it. Avery Brooks in particular is on record as seriously disliking it, which may have something to do with its reputation.

How did I not get this?

Because it should be Mron!

 

[J.Quondam]

Honestly, I’m finding “The Nagus” to be more painful to watch than “Move Along Home”.

I love Wallace Shawn in The Princess Bride, but his whiny voice and high-pitched tittering in this episode are truly grating!

What?? Inconceivable!

 

[payn]

What?? Inconceivable!

I can hear "Quaaaaaaaaark!" clear as a bell in my head now.

I note that in one of the episodes I just watched yesterday, Quark tells Odo that Morn told him something … so the character can speak, even if he never speaks on screen.

I kind of assumed Morn was telepathic. Or maybe he communicates via pheromones?

He's apparently a real chatterbox according to everyone else.

Yeah. It seems like that's part of the joke!

A moment I really loved in one of last night's episodes was when Sisko went looking for Jake, who hadn't obeyed him about being back in time for dinner. When Sisko found Jake with Nog in a cargo bay, he discovered that Jake was teaching Nog how to read, so he decided not to confront them. Later, he told Jake he was good kid.

That scene chokes me up!

The evolving relationships is one of the best things about the show. Bashir and O'Brien, Bashir and Garak, Sisko and Jake, Quark and Odo, Odo and Kira, etc etc etc. The relationships change over time, and the characters are actually given room to grow.

Nog is one of the best characters in Star Trek. He’s got one of the best arcs, if not the best arc, in the franchise. No spoilers for those new to DS9 but it’s an absolute treat.
