Nog and Jake's business venture was one of my favorite DS9 episodes. I'm still upset that Jake didn't become a business man when he got older. I always thought it would have completed their story arc: the Ferengi joins Star Fleet and the Star Fleet officer's son goes into business earning profit.

That episode was great. That would've been a good arc too, maybe he ended up running his grandfather's restaurant or something IDK

Or opening up a shop on the promenade. Late series Jake never felt right to me.

Now figure out where to store those crates of yamok sauce.

Just don't eject the escape pods, or some droids in a desert somewhere will get yamok sauce dumped on them

I still don't even know what a self-sealing stembolt is, and I've seen the show and read the Memory Alpha page on them. Are they just supposed to be techno jargon mcguffins?

It's simple! They are stembolts that seal themselves!

~~yes it's a joke in the show that they don't know what they do~~

It should be a thing to go around at Star Trek conventions asking if anyone knows what they are. 🤣

"Hey, are you really a fan of Star Trek?"

"I sure am!"

"What's a self-sealing stem bolt used for?"

"😧"

that would be hilarious lol

some would panic, some would make something up on the spot, and some would actually know there isn't an answer
