The House of Quark (DS9 S3 E03)

The House of Quark (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (DS9), S3 E3) was recommended by Marky See He/Him, who said: I love that DS9 wasn't afraid to move beyond the stereotypes set out in earlier series, Ferengi are more than gold hungry goblins, Klingons aren't just space vikings.When this first aired in the UK, I missed all but the conclusion of this episode so on my rewatch of DS9 I was excited to see how Quark ended up married to Klingon!This episode delivers a glimpse into the not so simple world of Klingon probate whilst Quark does his best to keep his business afloat and his head on his shoulders amid shotgun weddings and quickie divorces.The House of Quark first aired on October 10, 1994, written by story by Tom Benko, teleplay by Ronald D. Moore, and directed by Les LandauQuark brags falsely about killing a Klingon, Kozak, and is then forced to marry the widow, Grilka, founding his own 'House of Quark'.The Joy of Trek is hosted by Khaki & Kay, with editing & production by Chief Engineer Greg and music by Fox Amoore (Bandcamp | Bluesky)Send us your recommendations, or support us on Patreon.Find us at joyoftrek.com · Twitter · Facebook
