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:

    There are only two or three human stories, and they go on repeating themselves as fiercely as if they had never happened before; like the larks in this country, that have been singing the same five notes over for thousands of years.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)

    Lap me in soft Lydian airs,
    Married to immortal verse,
    Such as the meeting soul may pierce
    In notes with many a winding bout
    Of linked sweetness long drawn out,
    With wanton heed and giddy cunning,
    The melting voice through mazes running,
    Untwisting all the chains that tie
    The hidden soul of harmony;
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    The night is itself sleep
    And what goes on in it, the naming of the wind,
    Our notes to each other, always repeated, always the same.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
