“He was afraid of me. I could see the fear in his eyes.”

And here we are back at Quark’s. Looks like business has picked up :slight_smile:

She is busty. And Jake has a good date! hehehe

… smooth operator, that Jake Sisko :stuck_out_tongue:

DABO!!! :smiley:

Quark and his salvage

From what I heard, the actor was just as smooth on the set with the ladies. He tried make moves on Terry and Nana even as a youngling.

Worst. Baby sounds. EVER.

“You are evil.”
“Who, me?”
“He was going to walk away a winner!”
“First rule of dabo is, watch the wheel, not the girl.”

I’d lose.

I’m sure that hasn’t changed.

Director Avery Brooks saw this episode as something of a metaphorical study of racial tension and gang culture. According to Brooks “for me, it was very much a story about young brown men, and, to some extent, a story about a society that is responsible for the creation of a generation of young men who are feared, who are addicted, who are potential killers.”

That’s deep, man.

Make has an iPad? The economics of the future really are different.

Yeah let’s just talk about the kid. Until the kid starts talking, too. :stuck_out_tongue:

Particularly when the young brown man in question is controlled by Whitey. :rolleyes:

The events of VOY pilot episode “Caretaker” take place between this episode and the next one, judging from the stardates.

Huh. Voyager doesn’t premiere until a few months from these episodes. This aired in Nov 1994. Voyager started Jan 95, I believe.

Bringing a girl home for the first time? I’m the only girl S ever brought home, lol.

A Dabo girl, dating his son? Get over yourself, Sisko.

Yeah, Voyager’s not starting for a while. Weird.

This episode marks the first time that we see Ketracel-white, even though it is only referred to as the “missing enzyme” that the Jem’Hadar are “addicted” to.

I don’t think you’re far off with that statement considering it’s the first appearance.

Badger, you could write a paper about the extended metaphor!

Why, Bashir?
Power and control

My wife is the only girl I ever brought home. We just celebrated 17 years of marriage and I know her for 25.
