Stardate not given: Grand Nagus Zek comes to the station with a volume of the new Ferengi Rules of Acquisition. To Quark's horror the old man has rewritten the rules to endorse benevolence instead of greed. Investigating the rediscovered Orb of Wisdom that Zek is going to donate to the Bajoran people, Quark and Rom realize that the Nagus received it as a gift from the Bajoran Prophets. Determined to restore his greedy nature, the two and his servant Maihar'du kidnap Zek and take him to the wormhole. There the Prophets are appalled about Quark's behavior and tell him they would change his state of existence like they did with Zek. But Quark proposes them a deal: If they revert Zek to the man he was, he promises that no Ferengi will ever bother the Prophets again. Zek destroys the revised rules and decides to sell the orb to the Bajorans.
