“The Changing Face of Evil” · Season 7, Episode 20

In this episode: Damar (4), Gul Dukat (2), Weyoun (2), Rusot (2), Martok (1)

[after the Breen have attacked Earth] We must give the enemy credit. To launch an attack against Starfleet Headquarters... Even my people never attempted that.

There's something different about you today, Damar, I can't quite put my finger on it. It’s almost as if you're half dressed.

What are you talking about?

You don't have a bottle in your hand.

[Legate Damar and Gul Rusot are plotting to secede from the Dominion]

It doesn't seem right, all this plotting and secrecy. What are we, Romulans?

No, we're Cardassians. But right now, Cardassia is an occupied territory, and to defeat an occupying army requires careful planning and secrecy.

Can we really hope to defeat the Dominion? With the Breen on their side, they're stronger than ever!

But we will be fighting to win back our homes and our freedom, and that will make us even stronger.

[Damar and Rusot are making their final preperations to betray the Dominion]

We're going to lose many fine soldiers.

At least they'll be dying for Cardassia, and not the Dominion.

And so two years ago, our government signed a treaty with the Dominion. In it, the Dominion promised to extend Cardassia's influence throughout the Alpha Quadrant. In exchange, we pledged ourselves to join the war against the Federation and its allies. Cardassians have never been afraid of war, a fact we've proven time and again over these past two years. Seven million of our brave soldiers have given their lives to fulfil our part of the agreement, and what has the Dominion done in return? Nothing. We've gained no new territories. In fact, our influence throughout the quadrant has diminished. And to make matters worse, we are no longer masters in our own home. Travel anywhere on Cardassia and what do you find? Jem'Hadar, Vorta, and now Breen. Instead of the invaders, we have become the invaded. Our 'allies' have conquered us without firing a single shot. Well, no longer. This morning, detachments of the Cardassian First, Third and Ninth Orders attacked the Dominion outpost on Rondac III. This assault marks the first step towards the liberation of our homeland, from the true oppressors of the Alpha Quadrant. I call upon Cardassians everywhere. Resist. Resist today. Resist tomorrow. Resist till the last Dominion soldier has been driven from our soil!

[After Damar's broadcast announcing a Cardassian rebellion, Weyoun receives a military report]

It's confirmed. Our cloning facility on Rondac III has been destroyed. [fearfully] I could be the last Weyoun. That's why he picked that target.

SSolbor

Eminence, that man is not Anjohl Tennan!

WAWinn Adami

What are you talking about?

SSolbor

Anjohl Tennan died nine years ago in the labor camp at Batahl. I warned you not to trust him! I had a sample of his DNA sequenced. He's not even a Bajoran. He's a Cardassian!

[disguised as Anjohl Tennan] We were brought together for a cause, a great cause! Our destinies are linked!

SSolbor

Don't listen to him! Look at him! Don't you recognize the face of your enemy? It's Gul Dukat!

He doesn't understand, Adami! He couldn't possibly understand the love of the Pagh-wraiths!

SSolbor

The love of the Pagh-wraiths?! You're trying to release them! That's why you wanted the text of the Kosst Amojan!
