1:[2,#B],11:[1,#B],36:[4,#B]@1Ferengi Code@2A set of ethical guidelines governing behavior by Ferengi citizens. Among its provisions is a clause requiring the lives of subordinates be offered in payment for dishonorable deeds. (“The Last Outpost” [TNG]). SEE: Ferengi Rules of Acquisition. Ferengi By-Laws section 105, subparagraph 10 states that “Upon reaching adulthood, Ferengi males must purchase an apprenticeship from a suitable role-model.” (“Heart of Stone” [DS9]).
~1:[3,#B],63:[3,#B]@1Ferengi death rituals@2Rituals associated with the treatment of the body of a deceased Ferengi. Autopsy is strictly prohibited according to the rituals. (“Suspicions” [TNG]). To honor the dead, the deceased's body was cut into small pieces that were sealed into disk-shaped souvenir containers, then sold. These disks became valuable collector's items if the dead Ferengi was a personage of note. A Certificate of Dismemberment accompanied the souvenir, attesting to the identity of the remains. (“The Alternate” [DS9], “Melora” [DS9]).
~1:[4,#B],41:[10,#I],454:[65,#I]@1Ferengi Rules of Acquisition@2Words to live by in the Ferengi culture. Ferengi children are expected to memorize these pearls of wisdom and repeat them on command. (“The Nagus” [DS9]). There are 285 Rules of Acquisition. (“Rules of Acquisition” [DS9]). The rules were the brainchild of producer/writer Ira Steven Behr.
The First Rule of Acquisition: “Once you have their money, you never give it back.” (“The Nagus” [DS9]).
3rd Rule: “Never spend more for an acquisition than you have to.” (The Maquis, Part II” [DS9]).
6th Rule: “Never allow family to stand in the way of opportunity.” (“The Nagus” [DS9]).
7th Rule: “Keep your ears open.” (“In the Hands of the Prophets” [DS9]).
9th Rule: “Opportunity plus instinct equals profit.” (“The Storyteller” [DS9]).
10th Rule: “Greed is eternal.” (“Prophet Motive” [DS9]).
16th Rule: “A deal is a deal.” (“Melora” [DS9]).
18th Rule: “A Ferengi without profit is no Ferengi at all.” (“Heart of Stone” [DS9]).
21st Rule: “Never place friendship above profit.” (“Rules of Acquisition” [DS9]).
22nd Rule: “A wise man can hear profit in the wind.” (“Rules of Acquisition” [DS9]).
31st Rule: “Never make fun of a Ferengi's mother.” (“The Siege” [DS9]).
33rd Rule: “It never hurts to suck up to the boss.” (“Rules of Acquisition” [DS9]).
34th Rule: “War is good for business.” (“Destiny” [DS9]).
35th Rule: “Peace is good for business.” (“Destiny” [DS9]).
47th Rule: “Don't trust a man wearing a better suit than your own.” (“Rivals” [DS9]).
48th Rule: “The bigger the smile, the sharper the knife.” (“Rules of Acquisition” [DS9]).
57th Rule: “Good customers are as rare as latinum. Treasure them.” (“Armageddon Game” [DS9]).
59th Rule: “Free advice is seldom cheap.” (“Rules of Acquisition” [DS9]).
62nd Rule: “The riskier the road, the greater the profit.” (“Rules of Acquisition” [DS9]).
75th Rule: “Home is where the heart is, but the stars are made of latinum.” (“Civil Defense” [DS9]).
76th Rule: “Every once in a while, declare peace. It confuses the hell out of your enemies!” (“The Homecoming” [DS9]).
102nd Rule: “Nature decays, but latinum lasts forever” (“The Jem'Hadar” [DS9]).
109th Rule: “Dignity and an empty sack is worth a sack.” (“Rivals” [DS9]).
111th Rule: “Treat people in your debt like family. Exploit them.” (“Past Tense, Part I” [DS9]).
112th Rule: “Never have sex with the boss's sister.” (“Playing God” [DS9]).
We also know that the 103rd rule states “Sleep can interfere with…” (“Rules of Acquisition” [DS9]) but Pel was interrupted, so it was left to our imagination just what sleep interferes with. Early in 2371, Quark suggested that a 286th rule be added to the list: “When Morn leaves, it's all over.” We have been unable to confirm this rule's addition. (“House of Quark” [DS9]).
~1:[2,#B],19:[1,#B],26:[1,#B],42:[1,#B],46:[2,#B],58:[2,#B]@1folded-space transport@2Technology by which objects of almost any size could be transported incredible distances almost instantaneously. The Sikarians used this technique in their spatial trajector, which permitted instantaneous travel across distances as great as 40,000 light-years. (“Prime Factors.” [VGR]). The Ansata terrorists of planet Rutia IV developed a cruder implementation of folded-space transport based on the Elway Theorem. (“The High Ground” [TNG]).
~1:[2,#B],5:[1,#BI],38:[3,#I]@1Forcas III@2Planet. A bat'leth competition was held on Forcas III in 2370. Lieutenant Worf won champion standing at the competition in that year. (“Parallels” [TNG]). Data found a beige-colored drink from Forcas III to be revolting. (Star Trek: Generations).
~1:[1,#B],7:[1,#B],28:[2,#B],38:[1,#B],47:[2,#B],61:[2,#B],76:[2,#B]@1Gallitep@2Infamous labor camp on planet Bajor during the Cardassian occupation. Numerous unspeakable atrocities against Bajoran citizens were committed there by the Cardassians under the command of Gul Darhe'el. Gallitep was liberated in 2357 by the Bajoran Shakaar resistance group, including future Deep Space 9 officer Kira Nerys. (“Duet” [DS9]). Among those liberated at Gallitep was the brother of Colonel Lenaris Holem. (“Shakaar” [DS9]). One of the Cardassians at Gallitep was a file clerk named Aamin Marritza, who saw the atrocities committed by his countrymen and felt intense guilt over his inability to prevent them. Many years later, Marritza tried to atone for the Bajoran deaths by posing as Darhe'el, hoping that a public trial would expose the Cardassian crimes. (“Duet” [DS9]).

Lieutenant Thomas Riker, with some assistance from Captain Picard, was assigned to the Gandhi in 2369 after his rescue from planet Nervala IV. He transferred to the ship just prior to its departure for a terraforming mission in the Lagana sector. (“Second Chances” [TNG]). Thomas Riker was serving aboard the Gandhi when he began to express pro-Maquis sentiments. By 2371 Thomas Riker deserted his post aboard the Gandhi to become a member of the Maquis. (“Defiant” [DS9]). Named for Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (1869-1948), leader of the Indian nationalist movement and influential philosopher who advocated nonviolent confrontation and civil disobedience as a means of fostering political change on Earth.
~1:[2,#BI],4:[1,#I],6:[1,#B],23:[1,#I],25:[38,#I],64:[2,#I],68:[6,#I],75:[8,#I],87:[1,#I],92:[3,#B],100:[25,#I]@1Ganges, U.S.S.@2Starfleet Danube -class runabout, registry number NCC-72454, one of three runabouts assigned to station Deep Space 9. (“Past Prologue.” [DS9]). The Ganges was first seen in “Past Prologue” (DS9). In that episode, it sported a “roll bar” that contained sensor equipment. From a visual effects standpoint, the purpose of the roll bar was to make it easier to tell the Ganges from the Yangtzee Kiang in that episode's chase sequence. The Ganges was also seen in “Q-Less” (DS9),“Vortex” (DS9) and “The Siege” (DS9). The Ganges was destroyed by a T'Lani munitions cruiser in 2370. (“Armageddon Game” [DS9]). The ship was named after the river in northern India and eastern Pakistan that flows 1560 miles from the Himalayas to the Bay of Bengal.
~1:[2,#B],7:[3,#B],36:[1,#B],128:[2,#B],134:[2,#B],141:[2,#B],280:[2,#B],284:[1,#B],287:[1,#B],313:[1,#B],359:[2,#B],375:[1,#B],381:[2,#B],390:[2,#B],408:[8,#I]@1Garak, Elim@2(Andrew Robinson). Resident of Deep Space 9, the only Cardassian citizen left on the station after the Cardassian retreat from the Bajoran system in 2369. Garak owned a clothing shop on the station's Promenade. Some people on the station regarded Garak as a Cardassian spy, including Dr. Julian Bashir, despite Garak's efforts to befriend him. (“Past Prologue” [DS9]). Despite his protestations to Bashir, Garak maintained some contact with Cardassian intelligence. (“Cardassians” [DS9]). Garak fell victim to internal Cardassian politics and was forced into exile on station Terok Nor in 2368, where he began life anew as a simple tailor. Garak, however, never gave up hope of eventual political rehabilitation. (“Profit and Loss”) Garak, whose first name was Elim, was once a member of the powerful Obsidian Order, until his former mentor, Enabran Tain, had him exiled to station Terok Nor in 2368. As a member of the Obsidian Order, Garak had volunteered to have a cranial implant placed into his skull, to help him resist torture if captured by an enemy. Garak found exiled life on Terok Nor (later Deep Space 9) to be intolerable, so he activated the cranial implant and left it on. The implant served as a powerful narcotic on which Garak became physically dependent until 2370, when the unit malfunctioned, nearly costing Garak his life. Dr. Bashir was able to remove the device. (“The Wire” [DS9]. Although Tain had been responsible for Garak's exile and even tried to have Garak killed, Garak found isolation so bitter that in 2371 he jumped at the opportunity to serve again with Tain. Garak participated in Tain's disastrous joint attack by the Obsidian Order and the Romulan Tal Shiar against the Founders of the Dominion. Garak was the only Cardassian survivor of that battle. (“Improbable Cause” [DS9]; “The Die is Cast” [DS9]).
Elim Garak exhibited extreme distrust against fellow Cardassian, Dukat, (“The Wire” [DS9], “Civil Defense” [DS9], “Improbable Cause” [DS9] and “The Die is Cast” [DS9]) although the genesis of their discord was not known at the time of this writing. It is known that Garak played a part in the downfall and eventual trial of Gul Dukat's father at some time in the past. (“Civil Defense” [DS9]).
Garak returned briefly to Cardassia in 2371 to help rescue Kira Nerys, who had been taken prisoner by the Obsidian Order. (“Second Skin” [DS9]).
Garak's quarters on DS9 were Chamber 901, Habitat Level H-3. (“The Wire” [DS9]). Garak was first seen in “Past Prologue” (DS9).
~1:[1,#B],13:[2,#B],43:[1,#B]@1Gorn@2Large, immensely strong reptilian creatures who destroyed the Earth outpost on Cestus III claiming it was an intrusion into their space. The captain of the Gorn vessel and Captain Kirk were transported to a planet by a race known as the Metrons, where each fought for the survival of his respective crew. Kirk won, but refused to kill the Gorn, after realizing that the Gorn attack had been the result of a misunderstanding. (“Arena” [TOS]). The territorial dispute over Cestus III was later resolved, and Federation colonists later settled on the planet. (“Family Business” [DS9]).
~1:[2,#B],9:[7,#I],19:[2,#BI],40:[1,#B]@1gravitic mine@2Graviton-based weapon used against space vehicles. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan). The transport starship U.S.S. Denver struck a gravitic mine in 2368. That mine had been left over from the Cardassian war. (“Ethics” [TNG]). The Albino planted one to protect his sanctuary on planet Secarus IV. (“Blood Oath” [DS9]).

Bartender at the Ten-Forward lounge aboard the Starship Enterprise -D. (“The Child” [TNG]). Guinan was a member of a race of listeners, but her people, the El-Aurians, were nearly wiped out by the Borg in the late 23rd century. While fleeing from her homeworld aboard the S.S. Lakul in 2293, Guinan was briefly swept into an alternate reality known as the nexus. (Star Trek: Generations). The few survivors among her people escaped by spreading themselves across the galaxy. Guinan was one of the survivors. (“Q Who?” [TNG]). Guinan spent some time on Earth prior to that planet's development of space travel. She lived in the Earth city of San Francisco in the year 1893, where she met writer Samuel Clemens, as well as future shipmates Data, Picard, etc., who had traveled back in time. (“Time's Arrow, Parts I and II” [TNG]). Guinan was born sometime in the 19th century, making her about 500 years old when she served on the Enterprise -D. Her father was about 200 years old at the time of Guinan's birth. (“Rascals” [TNG]). She also had an uncle named Termin. (“Hollow Pursuits” [TNG]). Guinan and Q were acquaintances, having met each other some two centuries ago, but neither has been particularly enlightening about the encounter, save for the fact that neither liked the other. (“Q Who?” [TNG]). She has been married several times, and had many children. She said that all of them turned out all right, except for one that wouldn't listen. (“Evolution” [TNG]). Guinan possessed an unusual sense that extended beyond normal linear space-time. She, alone, was intuitively aware of the damage to the “normal” flow of time caused when the Enterprise -C was swept some 22 years into its future, creating an alternate timeline. Guinan warned Picard that history had been altered, persuading him to return the Enterprise -C back to 2344 to restore the flow of time. Such was Picard's faith in Guinan that he accepted this extraordinary recommendation. (“Yesterday's Enterprise” [TNG]). Much remains unknown about Guinan, largely because Star Trek's producers made a conscious decision to keep her background something of a mystery. Guinan, played by Whoopi Goldberg, joined the Star Trek: The Next Generation cast at the beginning of the second season after calling Gene Roddenberry and telling him that she'd like to be part of the Enterprise crew. Guinan was named after famed bartender Texas Guinan, who ran a saloon during the Prohibition. Young Guinan in “Rascals” was played by Isis Jones. Guinan's first appearance was in “The Child” [TNG]).
~1:[1,#B]@1hasperat@2Spicy Bajoran burrito whose filling is made with a specially prepared brine. Prepared correctly, hasperat will make the eyes water and sear the tongue. (“Preemptive Strike” [TNG], “Second Skin” [DS9]).

The Hawking carried Ambassador Odan on an aborted flight to a peace conference on planet Peliar Zel in 2367. The shuttle was attacked by forces seeking to block the conference. (“The Host” [TNG]). The Hawking survived the crash of the Enterprise -D saucer section in 2371, and rescued Captain Jean-Luc Picard from a mountain top on Veridian III on which he was stranded. (Star Trek: Generations). Named for 20th-century mathematical physicist and Star Trek fan Dr. Stephen Hawking. The Hawking in “The Host” was of a different design as the Hawking seen in Star Trek Generations. The name was reused for the movie, despite the technical error, because of Executive Producer Rick Berman's admiration for the noted physicist. We didn't think Professor Hawking would mind.
~1:[2,#B],8:[1,#I],15:[2,#B],54:[2,#I],59:[15,#I]@1Hayes, Ensign@2(Michael Mack). Member of the Enterprise -D engineering staff. (In an alternate quantum reality visited by Worf in 2370, Hayes was forced to take over in engineering when Commander La Forge was taken to sickbay with plasma burns.) (“Parallels” [TNG]). He later served as tactical officer on the bridge of the U.S.S. Enterprise -D in 2371. (Star Trek: Generations). Michael Mack had previously portrayed Romulan Commander Sirol in “The Pegasus” (TNG).
