 Dr. Bashir has to take care of a couple of ambassadors visiting Deep Space Nine to take a look at the wormhole. In Quark s bar an ambassador from Betazed, Lwaxana Troi, gets robbed of her brooch. Odo is able to find the culprit and suddenly Troi is very interested in him, romantically. He doesn t like it. Meanwhile O Brien is totally fed up with the Cardassian computer. It doesn t do the job right and gives opinions on every one of his commands. He suggests installing a new one from scratch. Then an unidentified object appears from the gamma quadrant through the wormhole. It looks like a probe, but has a very sophisticated computer. After downloading information from it, O Brien notices the station s computer seems to be working better. Then several malfunctions appear, leaving Odo and Lwaxana Troi stuck in a turbolift.
