RJMcready complained about my ugly bracket graphic, and unknowingly invoked the Ubuntu curse, destroying my root file and making all my images inaccessible until I get my hands on a sledgehammer. So it’s his fault you’re seeing Quark with boobs. Also, you owe me a new hard drive, RJ.
Anyway, in possibly the biggest upset of the entire bracket, “These Are the Voyages…” beat “Spock’s Brain” by a landslide, moving on to the Foul Four, where it’ll square off against “Justice”.
Which leaves us with the last two of the Egregious Eight:
“Sub Rosa”
TNG, Season 7, Episode 14
Really, does “boning a ghost trapped in a candle” EVER sound like a good idea?
“Profit and Lace”
DS9, Season 6, Episode 23
Quark with boobs. Just…Quark with boobs.

WAX FEVER, BITCHES! DS9 is crap all the way, and if you tuned in you knew there was a 93% chance you were going to hate yourself and Rick Berman afterward. On the other hand, Sub Rosa (like Justice) sits like a perfectly placed turd in the otherwise delicious taco salad that is TNG.
Hmm, Ferengi transvestites vs. possessed dildos. Gotta go with Mr. Plastic Batchelor.
DS9 was excellent, minus some outliers. If you think TNG was better overall, you’re looking back with more nostalgia than anything else. TREKFLAWA!
Wax Fever was stupid, but not “stab my eyeballs” stupid. Profit and Lace was awful, top to bottom. Betitted Quark, all the way.
Sub Rosa. Personally I love DS9 and do not hate myself. TNG is the most overrated of all the Treks. If it weren’t for Picard and Data, I would never have watched a single episode.
Thanks, now I cant un-see Quark with tits. You guys suck.
DS9 was very good, but TNG stands the test of time. If your channel surfing and if you see an TNG episode, odds are you’ll stop and watch it.
But back to the subject at hand, my vote is for “Bev’s Wax Fever”. Turning Quark into a Tranny was one thing, but it is official TNG canon that all the women in Beverly’s family had the same sexual partner.
And for all the people who hate TNG, if it wasn’t for Star Trek: The Next Generation, we wouldn’t have YouTube videos like this:

Quarks with Tits. Sub Rosa is dumb. Profit and Lace is awful.
Sub Rosa. When I do my semi-annual Every Episode of Star Trek Marathon, is only get 10-15 minutes into Sub Rosa and then I skip the episode. Profit and Lace is at least watchable.
How bizarre; I’d flip those two. P&L is, by no stretch of the imagination, watchable. Sub Rosa, on the other hand, I made it through entirely last viewing with only minor bodily harm.
Sub Rosa makes me want to stab the director. P&L makes me want to stab myself.
The entire Ferengi race should have been wiped out in an extinction event right after their first appearance.This one is tough though. I mean, “Sub Rosa” is the show every Jennifer Love Hewitt fan dreams of when they huff paint.
But Quark has boobs. Argument: invalid. Profit and Lace gets my vote.
Profit and Lace. Like I’ve said in the previous posts. This was one of the two episodes that popped into my head when I read there was a worst of star trek contest.
Honestly, you people saying DS9 was no good need your head examined. DS9 had such a small “getting to know you” period and then everything came together. Pretty much every episode except for maybe 5 are watchable. TNG cant even come close to saying the same thing. TNG was good but take the rose colored glasses off. If Sub Rosa wins this match up I’m going to be disappointed. And you wouldnt like me when I’m… disappointed. ::Turns beige and shakes head::
Crusher love wins out. I vote for Profit and Lace.
I want you all to know I tried but I couldn’t think of a funny Ferengi rape joke. But as a positive I did come to realize jokes about teenage Ferengi rapists make my girlfriend not want to sex me. Like, AT ALL.
Profit and Lace and Thanos.
Uhf, Lace elicits the unwanted image of Quark feeling himself up. You won’t Profit from that, unless you’re betting it’s gonna move on.
The obvious innuendo in the title (Rosa=red after all) is a kick in the crotch, but at least Fire Bush get some.
Bring on the Foul Four.
Sub Rosa
Profit and Lace.
Sub Rosa would at least make a fantastic Rifftrax episode. Profit and Lace on the other hand doesn’t even have that going for it. It’s so bad that it ISN’T funny, which is especially sad, ’cause it was supposed to be a comedy episode.
DS9 actually did a fairly decent job with its humour, even when the Ferengi were involved. Unless you count Fascination, I think Profit and Lace could be the only one that truly failed. Now compare that to episodes like Tribble-ations or Take Me Out to the Holosuite or In the Cards, all of which can stand toe-to-toe with all but the greatest of DS9′s pure-drama or myth arc episodes.
It amazes me sometimes that the same people did both “epic multi-season war arc the likes of which has never been seen in this franchise” and “Quark with boobs”.
Sub Rosa. I know I voted already, but who amongst you can resist the lure of Wax Fever vs. Interstellar Lizard Love, with the winner (?) to take on Justice for all the marbles.
It pains me to have to do it considering that the wax bachelor was played by the criminally underrated Duncan Regher but Sub Rosa was too horrible for words. Quark can do quarky stuff all he wants and I’ll at least watch for a chuckle.
Sub Rosa gets my worst vote.
Profit And Lace by a VERY slim margin
