The show features Vash arriving at Deep Space 9. If you don't remember, Vash is a lady friend of Captain Picard and she appeared in a few episodes of "Star Trek: The Next Generation". This character was enjoyable but never made a lot of sense regarding her relationship with Picard, as she is clearly amoral and steals antiquities--so why would the very straight-laced and very moralistic Picard like her? What doesn't make sense in this episode is her relationship with Q. Although Q is all-powerful and clearly very condescending, he chases after her like a love-starved puppy-- almost constantly begging her to rejoin him in adventures. What also didn't make a lot of sense is Q's stating that he knows everything--yet didn't remember Miles O'Brien when they meet once again. And, speaking of not making sense, why did EVERYONE on the ship behave so incredibly calmly and non-emotive when the station was about to be torn apart?! Logic is NOT a strong suit in this episode!
Despite all these and several other inconsistencies, the show is enjoyable enough. Q is always enjoyable (well, maybe not so much in the old Farpoint episode) and his banter with Vash is nice.
