Grand Nagus Zek tries to change all Ferengi culture.
So, whose bright idea was it that the first reappearance of the wormhole aliens since the pilot should be in a ‘comedy’ Ferengi episode? That takes my normal annoyance at Ferengi episodes to a whole new level. It’s better than some of the other Ferengi episodes, but not by a lot.
The sub-plot was kind of nice, with Bashir trying to not become too attached to winning a prize he can’t win. At least until I found out afterwards that the whole thing was an extended metaphor for TNG’s Emmy nomination, which kind of coloured my view of it in retrospect.
355 down, 382 to go.
