Melora is from a planet with very low gravity and must use a wheelchair to get around in "normal" conditions. Though she resents any special treatment, a smitten Bashir (Siddig El Fadil) outfits her quarters with a gravity device which allows her to "fly" around. Meanwhile, Quark (Armin Shimerman) welcomes Fallit Kot (Peter Crombie), an old acquaintance who announces that he intends to kill the Ferengi. Odo (René Auberjonois) assures Quark he will not allow that to happen. When Melora is injured in a fall, Bashir develops a new technology which will allow her to walk without crutches. But it will also prevent her from flying. While she struggles with the decision, Kot ignores Odo's warning and closes in for the kill!
