  The Grilka episodes show this best. The House of Quark is an honorable one.

    Qplah! Glory to the house of Quark! The only one to teach Gowron how to use Microsoft Excel

      I love Gowron’s ‘is this really happening?’ face throughout the episode.

      The “Qplah” immediately made me use the right voice for this. Without it I wouldn’t have gotten the right voice at all!

  Quark: I should’ve listened to my cousin Gaila. He said to me, “Quark, I’ve got one word for you…weapons.” No one ever went broke selling weapons. But did I take his advice? No. And why not? Because I’m a people person. I like interacting with my customers. Like you and I are doing right now. Talking to each other, getting to know one another…

  Garak: I can see the attraction…for you.

  Quark: But when you’re dealing in weapons, buyers aren’t interested in casual conversation. They just want their merchandise, no questions asked. It’s so impersonal.

  Garak: Your charms would be wasted.

  Quark: Exactly. So now Gaila owns his own moon, and I’m staring into the abyss. And the worst part is, my only hope for salvation is the Federation.

    Hard for them not to when you’re the former Grand Nagus, step son of the former long time Grand Nagus, and brother of the new Grand Nagus.

    I’m sure Moogy helped him out to once Rom passed a few reforms.

      I wonder how much that helped him. Rom is way too nice to Quark, true, but Leeta and Moogy are both protective of Rom and wouldn’t look kindly to him being taken advantage of.

        It wouldn’t be taking advantage for a brother to allow fe-males like Moogy to help with a family run business, would it?

  I haven’t counted, but I have a suspicion that of the main cast Quark kills more Jem’Hader on screen than any other character, except for maybe Worf.

  Seriously. Watch with that in mind.
