Story: Looking for par'Mach in All the Wrong Places
Written By: Ronald D. Moore
Series: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
Year: 1996
I think this one is fun. Grilka from the episode “House of Quark” returns to the station, and Quark tries to woo her; he tries to get help from both Dax and Worf. Worf sort has a thing for Grilka as well, he wishes he were the one wooing her. Dax keeps dropping subtle hints that she would totally go for Worf (this has been sort of hinted at since Worf came to the station, and her background with Klingons makes it pretty plausible). In the end Quark gets Grilka for a bit of Klingon Nasty, and Dax finally gets Worf to join her in some Klingon nasty of their own, thus beginning their relationship.
In a smaller B-plot, there is a moment of awkwardness between Kira and the Chief…they have a subtle attraction to each other, the pregnancy clearly causing some confusing feelings. It is interesting, but I don’t really know where it could have gone…and I am glad it doesn’t continue much beyond this episode.
