Not exactly Moogie

Occasionally, "Star Trek: Deep Space 9" recurring characters were played by different actors--especially if this difference could be hidden. Leyta and Quark and Rom's Moogie are two such examples of characters with multiple actors. Here, Moogie is no longer played by Andrea Martin but another actress but her strange and feisty ways continue.

When the show begins, Quark has word that his mother is keeping a decidedly high profile for a Ferengi woman (what else is new?!). What's she up to? She's the new girl friend of the Grand Nagus (Wallace Shawn) and Quark doesn't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing. It doesn't really matter, though, as she won't do what he says! As for Rom, he's more concerned with Lita these days and soon you could see Rom and Moogie married (but, thank God, not to each other).

This is a fun little Ferengi episode--as are most of the Frenggi episodes. Worth seeing and silly.
