There's so much comedy in the Quark/Odo relationship that's played perfectly and isn't at the expense of either of the characters.

The uptight lawman/morally good criminal will-they-wont-they frenemyship is one of my favorite dynamics in the show and is up there with Garak/Bashir or even La Forge/Data.

It always felt like Odo had the slight upperhand (or narrative sympathy?) in every scenario which was a tad annoying when a major theme of his character arch is his possible propensity for outright authoritarianism (a character arch I thought was brilliant to give him and, sadly, not explored nearly enough).

I still love both of them but that aspect of the dynamic will always bother me.

Mall Cop Paul Odo.

Such a good show.... I also wish they had explored it more.
