- Broken Base: One of the more divisive episodes — it's either a harmless bit of nonsense with enough fun bits to paper over the plot holes, or it's a thoroughly idiotic idea for a Star Trek episode that should never have been done at all.
- Never Live It Down: The inept fight that the Enteprise puts up against the Ferengi in this episode is notorious. It even gets a Call-Back in an episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Odo even throws this in Worf's face after Worf complains — not for the first time — about how lax security is on Deep Space Nine and makes the amusing statement that "Nothing like this ever happened on the Enterprise." Worf is suitably embarrassed.
- Along with Star Trek: Generations, it and this episode seem to establish that the otherwise top-of-the-line Enterprise-D has a consistent Weaksauce Weakness in getting its ass kicked by common Klingon Birds-of-Prey.
- Tear Jerker:
- When Molly fails to recognize her mommy in the transformed Keiko, it hits Keiko — and us — hard.
- Her husband comforting her afterwards is equally this and Heartwarming Moments.
