There's not much of anything here in terms of plot, but that's precisely the point and the reason why the show works so well.Įvery once in a while DS9 needs to do this-just forget about storytelling with the usual plot workings and get back to the fundamentals of the characters. "Looking for Par'mach in All the Wrong Places," in addition to having one of the longest episode titles in Trek history, is one of the most purely amusing episodes of DS9 I can remember. Besides, the possibility exists that she is, in fact, here because she is interested in Quark. Worf's dishonor among Klingons, however, prevents him from pursuing any sort of relationship with her. When Quark's Klingon "ex-wife" Grilka (see third season's " House of Quark" for a recap of the circumstances surrounding their constructed relationship) visits the station, her demeanor strikes Worf with a sudden case of "par'mach" (described by Dax as the "Klingon word for love with more intense overtones"). Very amusing, and with some well-realized character work, too. Nutshell: One of the most purely enjoyable "little" episodes of Trek in quite a while. Review by Jamahl Epsicokhan "This is ridiculous! I'm surrounded by corpses, my shoes are dripping in blood-and you want me to feel romantic?" - Quark Star Trek: Deep Space Nine "Looking for Par'mach in All the Wrong Places"
