With Deep Space Nine back under Federation control things are getting back to normal. As his Worf's son Alexander is getting transferred to another ship Dax suggests that she and Worf should get married before he leaves the station rather than waiting for the war to end. As part of the wedding preparations Worf has the equivalent of a four-day stag night with his male friends
or at least that is what they think! Dax must show General Martok's wife Sirella that she is worthy to join their house. Sirella is not keen on having a non-Klingon join their house so is determined to make sure she fails the tests although Dax knows something about her family that she would rather keep secret. The men are having less fun than they expected as a Klingon stag night entails various trials of endurance. It looks as if Dax has blown things when she throws a wild party in Quark's bar where she comes to blows with Sirella when she calls Dax a Rizian slut tries to drag her off to another ritual. Worf tells her to apologise but she refuses leading to him cancelling the wedding; it is up to their friends to get them to change their minds again and get married.
After several action packed episodes this one featured far less action but was still a lot of fun; Shannon Cochran put in a good performance as Sirella. It was also fun to see Dax let her hair down at the party; it certainly looked like a great bash. I also liked the reaction of Dr. Bashir and Chief O'Brien when they learnt the celebrations weren't going to be the fun activities they had anticipated.
