Backed up by O'Brien's investigation of the station, Kira and Odo tell Sisko the tale told by
Quinn and Portafoy. A shady Triexian sold them information claiming that a Cardassian
administrator hid a fortune in jewels and precious metals when the occupation of Bajor ended,
leaving clues to the treasure's location in the station itself. Sisko orders Odo and Kira to
lock down the station and follow the money, leading them to the usual suspect. Meanwhile, Dr.
Bashir has lunch with the other usual suspect, who offers his help finding the treasure.

reclamations arrives with Kira, hailing Quinn and Portafoy as heroes. In the aftermath of
the discovery, life returns to normal on the station, but Garak misses a luncheon
