The Ascent (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine) - Notes

Notes

  • This is the last Deep Space Nine episode to feature the Starfleet Uniforms first introduced in season 1. From the following episode onwards the crew would wear the much darker uniforms introduced in Star Trek: First Contact.
  • Quark asks Odo if he would care for a game of Fizzbin, saying it is an easy game to learn. In the original series episode "A Piece of the Action" Captain Kirk, while being held captive on Sigma Iotia II, spontaneously invents a confusing card game to distract the henchmen guarding himself, Spock, and McCoy. He names the game Fizzbin.

Famous quotes containing the word notes:

    Ceremony and ritual spring from our heart of hearts: those who govern us know it well, for they would sooner deny us bread than dare alter the observance of tradition.
    F. Gonzalez-Crussi, Mexican professor of pathology, author. “On Embalming,” Notes of an Anatomist (1985)

    ‘Tis the gift to be simple ‘tis the gift to be free
    ‘Tis the gift to come down where you ought to be
    And when we find ourselves in the place just right
    ‘Twill be in the valley of love and delight.
    —Unknown. ‘Tis the Gift to Be Simple.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you—like music to the musician or Marxism to the Communist—or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
