Okay, we're in a new season this week -- hope people enjoy this one. This week, we're discussing... episode 1x11 "The Nagus"!
Episode synopsis: The nagus of the Ferengi Alliance visits DS9 for the first time and surprises everyone by appointing Quark as his successor. Meanwhile, the culture clash between Federation and Ferengi values becomes too great a strain for Nog to attend school -- but not too much for his and Jake's friendship.
What The Boys are up to in this episode: This is a Quark-centric episode: he is waiting on Zek, becoming nagus, becoming aware of the privileges and dangers of that role, and getting almost-murdered by Rom. Odo pops in and out to do various security-related things: keeping an eye on the Ferengi visitors, investigating both the attempted murder of Quark and the unusual "death" of Grand Nagus Zek, and bringing Zek to Quark in time to save him from being thrown out an airlock.
