What? Profit and Lace is funny. So goofy and silly, I can’t not laugh.
Comment on How is this not the worst episode of DS9?

I just find that the A story detracts from the Dominion Wars storyline that everything had been building up to, and the B story is just uninteresting with Jake following Quark's antics to distract Odo with Kira. At least 'Profit And Lace" had some comedy in it to make up for things.

The B story is meh, but the A story to me really adds to the dominion storyline by giving us a chance to see how the war has affected the crew through their interactions with someone who hasn’t experienced it. Plus add in a fun little sci-fi twist to it and it’s really a good plot line for me.

Seriously, Profit and Lace managed to be misogynistic, misandristic, and transphobic all at the same time.

Idk if I would really call it any of those. Characters in it are those but the episode itself was constantly showcasing that these things are bad. One thing I especially liked was the parts where they had to learn how women move since practicing being a specific gender is a real thing trans people do and deal with.
Throughout the episode multiple characters are being shown being misogynistic, transphobic and so on… But then being that is now shown as good it’s being actively shown as part of the problem with the ferengi that they are trying to solve.
