Besides Tuvax being eliminated in voyager
Toss up between Quark hacking the defiant computer to replicate drinks into his advertising cups or him and rom popping out from a jefferies tube in Sisko’s office… mostly because Sisko had previously just been staring off into space and then immediately goes back to just staring off into space.
I watched DS9 for the first time last year, and that Rom scene had me laughing so hard!
Best ‘best’ is hard to me to say; a lot of people don’t like, but i say “inner light”. As Picard receive the flute back and start playing, the emotional weight of the scene got me good.
Captain James T. Kirk : All right. It’s instinctive. But the instinct can be fought. We’re human beings with the blood of a million savage years on our hands, but we can stop it. We can admit that we’re killers, but we’re not going to kill today. That’s all it takes. Knowing that we won’t kill today. Contact Vendikar. I think you’ll find that they’re just as terrified, appalled, horrified as you are, that they’ll do anything to avoid the alternative I’ve given you. Peace or utter destruction. It’s up to you.
For me, it’s This
When Mariner and Boimler show up in Strange New Worlds, played by their actual voice actors. Fantastic episode.
Pretty much the entirety of Waltz from DS9. https://youtu.be/R2HY50xw3WU
Dukat usually appears like he’s trying to be a good person, despite all the terrible things that happened under his watch. But this episode breaks that down until he finally stops lying to himself.
I rewatched that episode just this evening, and completely agree; fantastic scene. Dukat is a delightful villain throughout the series, but this is one of his pinnacles of bastardy.
Imaginary Kira supporting his twisted logic was a nice touch, too; “Being reasonable only made us bolder”
Computer, activate the ECH pip pip pip pip
“I know this ship like the back of my hand.”
Picard on the meme planet.
The court room scene in Measure of a Man when Picard turns around to the viewer “do you?”

The scene with Guinan in that episode was also quite important

The black and white vs. white and black faces in the TOS episode “Let That Be Your Last Battlefield” were quite brillant too.
