Stardate 47229.1: The first
Elaysian officer in Starfleet, Ensign Melora Pazlar,
is assigned to DS9. Bashir and O'Brien have had to modify various passageways
to permit Melora - whose low-gravity home world
leaves her body reliant on a wheelchair in normal
gravity - access to as much of the station as
possible. In the meantime, Quark's former partner, who he once sold out to
the Romulans in order to save his own skin, has
finally been released by his captors and has come
aboard the station to exact vengeance upon Quark.
Bashir decides to make an effort to cut through
Melora's oversensitivity and defensiveness in order
to help her, and even discovers that there may be a
way to reverse her handicap.
