I have a problem here. The episode you described is "Errand of Mercy," but there was another episode entitled "Day of the Dove." One of them is the correct episode. I can't give it to you until you get it correct.
Anyway, WW is correct. A wispy, light-thingy entity draws the Enterprise and a Klingon ship to a planet under false pretenses. The Klingons capture Kirk and landing party but are themselves captured when they transport aboard the Enterprise. The entity helps them escape and keeps them fighting, sice it feeds on hate. It even heals them from mortal wounds just to keep fighting. Eventually, Spock and Kirk figure it out and convince Kang to disarm, as well. A wave of good cheer sends the entity fleeing the ship.
You're up. WW

P.S. Michael Ansara played the same character (Kang) in three ST series: TOS, DS9, and Voyager. John DeLancie played Q on TNG, DS9, and Voyager. Were there any others (excluding Maj Barrett as "Computer Voice")? I know Jonathan Frakes played Will Riker on TNG and Enterprise, but did he also play that character on DS9? Tom Riker doesn't count! There are a boatload of characters who played the same character in two series, and several who played different characters in three series, but how many played the same character in three series?

The "Don't call me Benjamin" line implies someone with the Dax symbiont. Is this "Invasive Procedures" where John Glover (long before his Lionel Luthor days) is a Trill who has the Dax synbiont placed in him? Sisko convinces his confederates that now that he has the Dax symbiont, he'll betray them all and gets his girlfriend to help get the symbiot back to Jadzia.

It is.
The station operated with a skeleton crew due to storms, which allowed a Trill a chance to take over the station.
Lucky for him the crew was less competent than when they "surrendered" the station later....

Is this from "Day of the Dove", when the Organians FORCED peace on Klingons and Federation,
and a Klingon (Kor???) decided that there's times even Klingons don't fight?
The "burning house" comment is familiar.

Didn't hit me until now that both episodes had the Feds, Klingons, and powerful being.
Ok, this was "Day of the Dove."

I'm thinking "Q Who?" the NG episode where Q "introduces" the Enterprise to the Borg.

You are thinking correctly.
It's also been suggested that the Borg had already been in Federation space before
this, since a colony or something had had all its tech removed before, which fits
the MO of the Borg when we meet them in this episode.

Let's see. 2nd 1/2 of DS9's run.
We have a Dax, Worf, probably Quark, probably Bashir, and Sisko at least speaking once.
Is this when they visited Risa, and we got to see what Risa was like when the natural
weather was allowed to run,
as a reminder that they need to learn to deal with discomfort if they expect to defeat
the Dominion?

DS9 is correct, but not the episode. I'll post a couple of other quotes later today.

Why in the world do I remember the Tongo game but not the main story?
Bashir agrees to take Quark at Tongo, but Quark out-plays him by breaking his concentration.
Worf and Jadzia go to pick up a spy, but Jadzia gets wounded, and Worf has to decide whether
to complete the mission, or take care of her.

That's the one! "Change of Heart." Given the choice between saving a Cardassian or Jadzia, I'd have made the same choice, I think!
