Notes

  • The second and final appearance of Ron Taylor’s Klingon Chef.  He had previously appeared in “The Abandoned“.
  • Rule of Acquisition mentioned – #112 – “Never have sex with the boss’s sister”.
  • Pakleds are shown as unspeaking background characters on the promenade again in this episode.
  • The last line of dialogue in this episode was “I’m not Curzon” (spoken by Jadzia).  Those three lines appear to sum up the entire episode in one go.
