As Quark tries to soothe things over, a loud clapping is heard and Brunt emerges from the other end of the bar.īrunt initially mocks the group but quickly announces his intention to sign up as well. As Quark urges him to stay, Gaila asks how they're supposed to get to the internment center anyway, since they have no ship. The team is now five.īack at the bar on Deep Space 9, Nog attempts to show them a schematic of a Dominion internment center, but soon gets into an argument with Leck over Leck's refusal to call him "sir" and finally quits. When he learns Quark paid for his release and his offer to earn some latinum, Gaila's vengeance is overcome by greed and he too agrees to join. Gaila blames his misfortune entirely on Quark. The weapons dealer who was once so wealthy, he owned his own moon was recently arrested on Thalos VI for vagrancy. Next they travel to a starbase to pick up their cousin Gaila, who has fallen on hard times since they last met.
He does, however, enjoy testing his abilities with a challenge and agrees to join when he learns they'll be facing the Dominion. He initially has no interest in joining the team or even in earning latinum. When the two reach Leck on a secure subspace channel, Rom learns that Leck is an " Eliminator". Nog finally agrees, with the team becoming three.īefore contacting their next recruit, Quark tells Rom that Leck is not a typical Ferengi: his priorities are different.
They suggest he could train the team for combat.
Quark, however, points out that he could be the team's Strategic operations officer, just like Commander Worf. Nog immediately declines, explaining that he's now a Starfleet officer and has duties to perform. With that, they seek out their first recruit. Being a typical Ferengi himself, however, they'll say the reward the group will share is only twenty bars of latinum. Rom is nervous but Quark believes Ferengi can be just as tough as Klingons with the right incentive. Quark has another idea, however: the rescue team will be made up only of Ferengi. Rom suggests they hire the toughest mercenaries they can find: Nausicaans, Breen, Klingons. He says the Nagus offered a reward of fifty bars of gold-pressed latinum, which Quark will share with Rom for his participation: thirty bars for himself and twenty for Rom, the difference representing his finder's fee. Quark explains that Moogie was returning home from a lobe-lift on Vulcan when her transport was attacked by Dominion forces, taking her prisoner. What's worse, Zek wants Quark to rescue her. Quark finds Rom working in an access tube and gives him troubling news: Their mother Ishka has been captured by the Dominion. Quark is then interrupted by Broik who comes with a message from Grand Nagus Zek from Ferenginar. Odo points out they're not just Starfleet officers, they're heroes. Quark complains to Constable Odo about the Starfleet officers stealing away his audience. Dax, Doctor Bashir, and Chief O' Brien enter, having just returned from taking the USS Defiant on a mission behind enemy lines in Cardassian space, the first reconnaissance mission into the area since the Dominion's retreat. Quark's customers are impressed, though his moment of glory is short-lived. Quark had then demanded a shipment of syrup or he would " expose their deception to the entire quadrant". Quark explains to his customers how he had learned there was in fact no drought and that it was merely a ruse to drive up prices. It had been previously thought to be nearly unavailable for the last year due to a drought on the planet Balancar. In Quark's, Quark observes an incoming shipment of syrup of squill.
