Profit and Lace – Ft. Clay
Description
After he promotes equal rights for female Ferengi, Grand Nagus Zek is deposed and replaced by (acting) Grand Nagus Brunt (of the F.C.A.). To restore order, Quark undergoes a sex change operation to convince a Ferengi cola merchant that Zek's radical plan has merit. Yes, this really happens.
"Profit and Lace" is frequently derided as not only one of the worst DS9 episodes of all time but of the entire Star Trek franchise! Wes and Clay discuss the attempt at a "golden age" homage and why it doesn't work in the Star Trek universe.
Plus! The guys discuss sexual harassment in the workplace, the inability for the series to take the Ferengi seriously, and making a "truly" Ferengi episode!

This is it. The final episode of DS9.
"What You Leave Behind" serves to close out both the Dominion War and the series itself. It has action, drama, comedy and retrospection in spades. It's a brilliant ending to a fascinating series.
But it's not perfect.
In this podcast, Wes and Clay...
