9:19 on Netflix, thank me later. WooWee!
Picard demands the return of stolen property before attempting to run away. Since he can't run away he remains true to his French roots and surrenders. WooWee!
Plot twist: the Ferengi want to surrender instead. WooWee!
Double plot twist: both Human's and Ferengi are snared by a third force emanating from the planet. WooWee!
Data gets his fingers stuck during a briefing. What seems like an on set joke becomes part of the plot. WooWee!
33:41 short lived Ferengi whip erection. WooWee!
The conversation between Riker and Portal at the end of the episode gives away the game. As a kid I was enthralled by Riker's answer to Portal's riddle and his fearlessness in the face of danger. As an adult, I understand what the writers are using him to say about all us "Yankee Traders". The noble Star Fleet progressives who work to better themselves and humanity must convert the evil Ferengi capitalists who work for money like the rest of us. The Ferengi are portrayed as sniveling and duplicitous trolls who need to adopt federation values in order to become less dangerous to the galaxy. I'll consider this the opening salvo in the Federation's culture war against my people.
Verdict: Nothing to write home about
Fun Fact: Worf denials number 2 AND 3 take place in this episode.
