10 Best Star Trek Characters In One Scene Only

10. Quimp

As the first Ferengi to appear in Star Trek: Lower Decks, Quimp appears in the second episode Envoys. He is, at first, seemingly the worst stereotype of the Ferengi people. He is snarling, clearly untrustworthy and ready to draw a blade on Boimler at a moment's notice. The fact that Mariner seems to trust him without question only lends greater light to his devious manner.

Boimler pulls a phaser on the crook, causing the man to run off into the distance, never to be seen again...

Until he is revealed to have been a plant, hired by Mariner to help Boimler grow a little confidence in himself. The reason Quimp stands out so quickly is that in the space of a few short minutes, he reminds the audience of those awful first Ferengi from The Last Outpost AND show the audience that the Ferengi are very far from that depiction in the franchise now.

A mix of early Quark and later Nog, Quimp is a big win for the Ferengi people.
