Ray’s Take on Episode 6: “Q-less”
Excellent exciting exams!
As a fan of TNG, Vash represents trouble, and Q represents even bigger trouble.
The Trickster has many faces—Coyote, Loki, Hermes, and others. Most never had large followings, people just hoped that they didn’t get noticed by them.
Bashir is an unethical creep. Starfleet should rescind his license to practice medicine.
The Picard-Vash-Q triangle is fun. Probably not the best idea to make a god jealous.
Vash: “Arrogant, overbearing, think you know everything”
Q: “But I DO know everything”
You can’t argue with Q.
Quark blocked Q like a sorority sister.
Ear massage works every time.
Bashir is both corny and horny. I love the sleep spell. I truly like Bashir, he just seems so hopeless at this stage.
The Quark and Vash negotiations are awesome.
Q TKO. “Picard never hit me.” Sisko is NOT Picard, and not one to be trifled with.
The “tailor” mention made me think of Garak. Metaphorically, a spy tailor makes perfect sense. Clothes can totally change how one is perceived so a man that crafts clothes can change and manufacture identities.
Odo is against acquisition, which makes sense since he doesn’t have many needs.
Q disses and dismisses O’Brien rather neatly.
“Bid high, bid often.” Given the extent of collectible Star Trek memorabilia and merchandise, that like is somewhat ironic. I Must Have The Picard Porcelain Plate!
Q is a sadistic extortionate creep. I said it’s not a good idea to aggravate a god.
Drinks and holosuites are always good.
Inigo, we found the Six Fingered Man!
Tartaras V is abyss-mal? Hadean puns.
Trash from the Gamma Quadrant would go for big bucks. A man could make a fortune selling random trinkets from the other side.
