Odo has absolutely always returned the cart. In fact, I'd say he's tracked down everyone he can find that hasn't returned the cart and forced them to return one in front of him.

    Nah, Odo believes in rules and order too much to force others to return their cart when there's no rule saying they need to do so.

    He doesn't like it when people leave their carts in random locations, which is why he leaves his very neatly where it's not going to be a danger of rolling into a car or the middle of the lot, but he definitely isn't going to return it himself when it's someone else's job to do so.

    Yep, and he'd probably return other people's carts too while grunting about the decay of federation morals and wishing he could put them in the brig for a few hours.

  • I don't think he would put other people's carts away.

    He would track them down and make them do it themselves.

    While grumbling about the decay of federation morals...

    And obviously he put them in the brig while going over all laws and regulations to figure out if he can lock them up. He does that every time. It would be improper not to double check.

    Also he will arrest Jake and Nog and drag them into detention for Nog's quarter scheme. Quark will feign being outraged but then will insist he be included next time so he can teach Nog how to not get caught.

    While I appreciate the addition, I feel like Weyoun would command Damar to return the cart.

    Damar would then drunkenly push it into the cart return and not pick it up when it fell over.

    Nah, Bashir would devise a clever plan to everything work out just fine without people returning their carts.

    Also, I'm pretty sure you got Garak wrong. He would promise never to return the cart, make a loud point about it for everybody, and insist on the subject every chance he gets. Just to covertly return it when nobody is looking because when Cardassia befriends the supermarket his people would benefit from the carts being correctly parked.

    Bashir has no idea how carts end up back at the cart return, and between O’Brien and Garak he isn’t likely to learn.

    Bashir ended up helping several patrons with cart return based injuries and forgot to return his in the process.

    He also invented a cart injury vaccine while helping, but it was shuffled into obscurity by section 31 who had several cart injury assassinations planned.

    O'Brien returned his cart, and yours, and was mumbling complaints about lazy people while gathering two more when somebody drove a motorized cart into him and broke his ankle.

    Kai Winn: grabs you by the ear and declares that the prophets dictate you not only return her cart for her, but that you must unload her cart into her vehicle. And if you don’t, your pah will suffer, my child

    Was reading this to my SO, and was given a correction for Quark: gets Rom to pay Quark for the privilege of returning Quarks cart.

    But people who don't return carts are just as bad as landlords???

    Do you know how many carts Dukat spared from getting pushed into traffic?

    The real move is to park next to the cart return

    Changelings/Founders: "It's a flaw of the solids... To turn something as simple as food transporting - into a fundamental flaw of a decrepit society. Their so-called "cart" -- a mere extension of the hands, solids fail to recognize as part of one's primal nutrition gathering needs in order to just survive. But instead, as logical weapons to other solids who oppose their incomplete transportation rules..."

    Garak will try to eliminate all carts, for the safety of the alpha quadrant cars.

    Bashir would definitely return his cart and others, and not be irked by it.

  • A couple minor changes to this one:

    Obrien: gets imprisoned and tortured while returning cart, gets dumped next to the corral for pickup

    Garak: convinces someone else to return the cart. They are happy to do so for such a charming gentleman. Merely a simple tailor, of course.

    You have two wolfs inside of you. One returns the cart, the other does not.
