I have a sense of humor. On the Enterprise, I was considered to be quite amusing.
That must've been one dull ship.
That is a joke. I get it. It is not funny, but I get it.
“Change of Heart” · Season 6, Episode 16
In this episode: Worf (3), Jadzia Dax (3), Benjamin Sisko (1)
LLasaran
A Klingon. Why did they have to send a Klingon?
I'm a Trill. Does that make you feel any better?
LLasaran
Are you trying to be funny?
Not at all. [nods to Worf] He's the funny one.
Your problem is that you can't accept change.
I can't accept change?
That's right.
You've got to be kidding. I've changed bodies six times!
[At Deep Space 9, after Worf aborts the mission to rescue a Dominion defector to get Jadzia medical treatment]
What's the word?
She is still in surgery, but Doctor Bashir is hopeful she will make a full recovery.
Lasaran's dead. Starfleet Intelligence intercepted a transmission saying that he'd been killed trying to re-enter the base at Soukara. Could you have made the rendezvous?
Yes.
Yet you turned back to save Jadzia?
Yes.
Were you aware that the information that man had could have saved millions of lives?
Yes.
So what happened?
You may not understand.
Try me.
You were at my wedding. You heard the story of the first two Klingon hearts and how nothing could stand against them, and how they even destroyed the gods that created them. I have heard that story since I was a boy but I never understood it, I mean really understood it, until I was standing in the jungle with my heart pounding in my chest and I found that even I could not stand against my own heart. I had to go back and it did not matter what Starfleet thought or what the consequences were. She was my wife and I could not leave her.
As your captain, it is my duty to tell you that you made the wrong choice. I don't think Starfleet will file any formal charges. Even a secret court martial would run the risk of revealing too much about their intelligence operations. But this will go into your service record, and to be completely honest, you probably won't be offered a command on your own after this.
I understand.
I have also issued new orders. You and Jadzia are not to be assigned to a mission on your own ever again. And one last thing. As a man who had a wife, if Jennifer had been lying in that clearing, I wouldn't have left her either.
