Summary
“Empok Nor is controlled by some kind of—beast. It’s told Quark that it will provide the parts that we need, but in exchange, it requires a doctor.”
How naïve Julian had been. “I’d be happy to assist, sir.”
“No,” Sisko had said. “No, it doesn’t want a doctor’s visit. It wants a doctor.”

Summary
“My dear—Doctor Bashir,” Garak begins. “I don’t wish to offend you, and I certainly never intended to mislead you.”
“Really.” Julian’s voice is tight now. “Really.”
“I have never—desired a more intimate relationship with you.”
“Five years of lunches and holosuite dates and book recommendations and that fitting today, when you had me undress so that you could put your hands all over me, and you never intended to mislead me.”

There are wild stories of what other races do to find their soulmates—they say that Vulcans are scanned at birth and entered into a database for easy matching, that Klingons have superstitions around the size of a soul-mark and kill children whose soul-marks are too small, that unscrupulous doctors specialize in soul therapy that can make two people become soulmates.

Summary
There’s an awkward pause while Julian looks at him with a weird, pensive expression. “Quark, would you… I mean, do you…” He waits for Julian to form a full sentence – he’ll get there eventually, he usually does. “Have you ever had a threesome?”
Quark blinks, surprised. “That’s kind of a personal question, don’t you think?”

Riker laughed again and shook the water out of his hair like a wet dog. “Should’ve packed an umbrella.”
“And galoshes, and a poncho, and—” Troi dragged him to his feet and put his arm back around her shoulders. “—and a splint, for those of us who can’t keep their ankles unbroken.”
“I did say sorry. And I’m pretty sure it’s just a sprain.”
“Walk on your own, then,” said Troi, but she was grinning, and she squeezed his hand tight so he wouldn’t pull away.

“Maybe.”
“Conduct unbecoming of an officer,” she said, searching for a better foothold on the alien tree.
“Well, that’s a little too far,” said Riker with a grin.
