DS9 DS9 Season 6

Who Mourns for Morn? – Ft. Clay

When Morn, Quark’s best customer, dies in an accident, his barkeep is shocked to learn that Morn was rich! And not only was Morn rich, but that his will stated that, upon his death, everything should be left to Quark. With his newfound wealth, Quark also gains some new enemies: a group of colorful con artists have arrived on DS9 in search of Morn’s wealth. It’s up to Quark to get a handle on the situation, find Morn’s money and get out with his life (and a cool 20%).

Wes and Clay also discuss building an episode around a gag, finding out that latinum is a liquid, and wondering about the impact of having the end of DS9 in sight!

Morn, Quark’s favorite customer, suddenly dies in a freak accident. Quark laments the loss of his most reliable source of income, but is surprised to discover that Morn left his entire estate to the Ferengi bartender. Quark’s goodwill quickly comes to an end when several old associates of Morn’s show up on DS9 and demand a piece of the action.

Quark will have to survive violent criminals, sexy ex-wives, and bounty hunters if he hopes to keep any portion of his newfound wealth. Our favorite Ferengi will have to keep his ears up and come up with a plot that will not only save his life, but also ensure him the biggest possible slice of the pie.

Who Mourns for Morn? is kinda-sorta a Ferengi episode, but it doesn’t really ever commit to saying anything about the race. Instead, we get a Maltese Falcon homage that leaves you wondering what exactly is going on with the Dominion War? That’s still happening, right? Didn’t Dukat just go crazy and escape, promising that Bajor would be wiped off the galactic map?

Wes and Clay discuss the potential of Who Mourns for Morn? and lament what could have been. Also! The guys discuss the impact of knowing that DS9 is almost over, the serialization of Cheers, and the best actors in the entire Star Trek franchise!
