Summary
In the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode, "Looking for par'Mach in All the Wrong Places," it's just like the old song goes: Grilka came a knockin' at Quark's door; he's everything she's been looking for. Dax didn't know where it started or where it might end; she turned to Worf just like a friend.
Hosted by John Champion & Norman Lao
