Synopsis

The Grand Nagus calls with news that Quark's mother, Ishka, has been captured by the Dominion. He enlists Quark to rescue her, offering a substantial reward if he succeeds. Quark persuades Rom to join the mission to save their mother, telling him that they will lie about the reward in order to keep most for themselves. The two then recruit Nog for his Starfleet expertise, while fellow Ferengi Leck, Gaila, and Brunt form the rest of the team.

Notes

Jeffrey Combs plays both the Vorta Weyoun and the Ferengi Brunt, but not at the same time :)
Keevan was captured (actually surrendered) in the episode "Rocks and Shoals".
We last saw Cousin Gaila in the episode "Business as Usual".
We last saw Leck in the episode "Ferengi Love Songs". Moogie's last appearance was also in "Ferengi Love Songs".
Keevan says that captured Vorta are supposed to commit suicide. (He didn't obviously.)
When their commando training doesn't go as well as planned, the Ferengi set up a trade: Keevan for Moogie.
During an argument with Quark, Gaila accidentally shoots Keevan. The Ferengi end up saving Moogie and capturing Yelgrun for Starfleet.
Iggy Pop made a horrible Vorta.
