Set in the 24th century, the series follows the adventures on the space station Deep Space Nine near the planet Bajor. This is one of several episodes focused on the Ferengi, an alien race whose culture is centered around the acquisition of profit, represented in the main cast by the character Quark, a bartender on Deep Space Nine. In this episode, the employees of Quark's bar go on strike in protest of unfair treatment by management (Quark). Leeta, one of the "dabo girls" who operate Quark's gambling machines, makes her third appearance, played by actress Chase Masterson.
