	The one where we meet the Ferengi, while they are still a excessively quirky. The way they move around is just too weird, and it is definitely a good thing that this is the only time they act like this. But it's early in the series, so of course there are going to be things early on that need improving, and there definitely is improvement. The writers recognized that this was too weird. But, of course, the writers had to continue with their nude jokes...between the Ferengi women being required to be nude, to the Betazoid weddings where everyone goes nude....and this coming shortly after The Naked Now...it's as if the writers are trying to get the audience to imagine the cast naked...

			The moral of the episode is "He who is wisest knows when to fight and when not to fight." And that not fighting is the wisest action.
