West is on Deep Space 9 in Quark's, drinking and telling tall tales. He gets a drunken Yridian to buy him a drink and rewards him with the story of the time the SS Rocinanté was boarded by pirates. The story involves Pakled pirates and Varon-T disruptors and various other improbabilities. No one believes West's outrageous story, and the crowd disperses. Quark comments how odd it was that an anonymous person turned in a Varon-T rifle to station security that morning.
