Notes:
- A Quark quote that could be a Rule of
Acquisition: "There's nothing wrong with a good delusion." [I
sell them upstairs to dozens of people every day.]
- This is the first of two episodes with Lt. Primmin, played by James
Lashly. He is next seen in "Move Along ".
Lt. Primmin is also the first of three people that Odo considered a
threat to his position as Secutiry Chief. The others were Lt. Cmdr.
Eddington in "The Search" and Lt. Cmdr. Worf
in "The Way of the Warrior".
The Author's Keyboord:
- Robert Hewitt Wolfe:
Do you really believe people use only 10% of their brains, or
was Dax joking?
I sure don't believe it. But I will claim that I didn't write that
line. Blame it on Morgan Gendel. [...] He's an Emmy nominee. He
can take the heat.
