S05E18 where Quark becomes an arms dealer when he’s struggling for money. His cousin Galen sets him up as a salesman, and the other guy in the picture is Galen’s boss
After watching TOS and TNG and being quite meh on every second episode, this show hits me as hard as the X-Files on my first watch. 90s shows are the millenials’ holy grail. I greatly enjoy that we don’t observe one crew, but have stellar, likeable or problematic favs in Ferengi, Bajoran and Cardassians. There the ‘gray moralty’ peaked.
You know, I see you around a lot, and I’ve never observed you acting like a certified asshole. What a phony! But seriously (folks), I think DS9 is pretty widely acknowledged as peak Star Trek, at least among the cognoscenti
I should check out the X-files; don’t think I’ve seen it for at least a decade. I remember Peter Boyle’s episode, and the one with the entomologist Mulder’s smitten with—not much else.
I have identity problems and a low self-esteem ): I dislike my original name-handle, but I didn’t come up with anything better yet.
My favorite episode of it is the Kill Switch, s5e11, co-written by William Gibson, the dad of cyberpunk the genre. If you’d have a movie night, couple it with Field Trip and Via Negativa episodes, but don’t do any drugs because all three episodes are really weird on their own.
But other than big hits episodes it’s just as comfy as ST or SG. Season 2 has some more creepy monsters, but it’s all about dreaming of what if there’s another conspiracy behind the conspiracy and the truth about little green\gray men are somewhere out there. Bonus is that the series are gender-swapped compared to its’ predecessors, and Scully is the source of rational disbelief and practical objections, while Mulder always acts on his feels and values. Thanks to that, it feels somehow refreshing and validating.

Cousin Galen has his own moon!
Thanks! Guess it’s time for a rewatch.
That’s what I’m doing at the moment. I’m a few episodes in to season 6, and I’m really enjoying it 🙂

Heavenly shades of night are falling
It’s twilight time
Was this song there? I can’t remember.
Yeah this song is inextricably linked with Kill Switch in my head.
I thought it was Gala
I just checked IMDB, and apparently it’s Gaila 🤷🏻♂️
