RBDS9 009 – Move Along Home (S1E9)

Welcome to our Rebinge of Star Trek DS9: Move Along Home
We’ve made it to the infamous Move Along Home episode of season 1! Not a terribly popular and historically low-rated episode involving the Wadi from the Gamma Quadrant arriving to play some games. And when they play a game, they REALLY play a game.
Move Along Home
In this episode, our crew makes official first contact with a new race. The Wadi have colorful outfits and some serious mullets and they are here to play, for reals. They hang out in Quark’s for awhile, but when they catch Quark cheating, they open up a game of their own. And then Kira, Sisko, Dax and Bashir all disappear. While Odo is on the hunt for our missing officers, Quark is literally gambling with their lives. Or is he…? Just drink the champagne, you’ll be fine.
Allamaraine, count to four…“
Alamaraine! This is a weird episode, but never fear, James has an over-analysis of why you should love it.

I enjoyed “Move Along Home” for the consequences for Quark, it felt like someone was finally calling him out and while not an amazing episode necessarily it’s still one I enjoy rewatching when it’s on. 🙂
The love for his son by Sisko is definitely again something I love about this series because you don’t often see male characters being openly and unashamedly affectionate with their kids much less sons so that to me stands out as something unique about this series and again certainly a plus for it!
I liked this podcast episode more because it feels half recap and half discussion. 🙂
“You can’t pick Kira because I’m 99% sure even after death Kira will come back and get you.” – lol but accurate! 🙂
I agree Fallow was well done!
I’m with James, I think Quark did learn a lesson in this episode; he won’t say he did but Quark grew some because of this episode.
