[a group of Klingons invade the tailor's shop]
Well, let me guess. You're either lost, or desperately searching for a good tailor.
DDrex
Guess again! (punches Garak)
S4 E1The Way of the Warrior
I can't believe you're not pressing charges.
Constable Odo and Captain Sisko expressed a similar concern, but really, Doctor, there was no harm done.
They broke seven of your transverse ribs and fractured your clavicle.
Ah, but I got off several cutting remarks, which no doubt did serious damage to their egos.
Garak, this isn't funny.
I'm serious, Doctor! Thanks to your ministrations, I'm almost completely healed, but the damage I did to them will last a lifetime.
[Garak takes a drink of root beer]
What do you think?
It's vile.
I know. It's so bubbly and cloying and happy.
Just like the Federation.
And you know what's really frightening? If you drink enough of it, you begin to like it.
It's insidious.
Just like the Federation.
[pause]
Do you think they can save us?
I hope so.
We've had a year to prepare this station for a Dominion attack, and we're more than ready.
(laughs) You're like a toothless old grishna cat, trying to frighten us with your roar!
I assure you, this old cat may not be as toothless as you think. Right now I've got five thousand photon torpedoes armed and ready to launch. If you don't believe me, feel free to scan the station.
[Martok and Gowron look across the bridge to their sensor officer, who nods.]
It's a trick! An illusion created by thoron fields and duranium shadows.
It's no illusion.
We shall see. (in Klingon) Today is a good day to die!
Your shields are down, your station boarded, and more Klingon ships are on their way! Surrender while you can!
I don't think so. My shields are holding, your boarding parties are contained, and my reinforcements are closer than yours.
Captain, your shields have been weakened, your station boarded, and more Klingon ships are on their way. Surrender while you can.
I don't think so. My shields are holding, your boarding parties are contained, and my reinforcements are closer than yours. You're facing a war on two fronts. Is that what you really want?
The Empire is not strong enough to fight the Federation and the Cardassians. End this now, Gowron, before you lead the Empire to its worst defeat in history.
We will not surrender!
This is exactly what the Founders want! Klingon against Cardassian, Federation against Klingon. The more we fight each other, the weaker we'll get, and the less chance we have against the Dominion.
Consider what you do here, Gowron. Kahless himself said "destroying an Empire to win a war is no victory".
And ending a battle to save an Empire is no defeat.
We can still win!
(referring to the Federation reinforcements) Not before those starships get here. Now, what do you want me to tell them? To stand down or come in firing?
...It is we who shall stand down.
Agh Dogh!
Enough! Cease fire. Order our ships in Cardassian territory to halt their advance. I do not intend to hand victory to the Dominion! But hear this. The Klingon Empire will remember what has happened today. You have sided against us in battle! And THIS we do not forgive or forget!
S4 E3The Visitor
I'm no writer, but if I were, it seems to me I'd wanna poke my head up every once in a while and take a look around—see what's going on. It's life, Jake! You can miss it if you don't open your eyes!
This is the last chance I'm ever going to have to help you. [Jake fades in and out] [Pained] No!
Jake, it's over. It's not going to work.
It has to.
Let go, Jake! If not for yourself, then for me. You still have time to make a better life for yourself. Promise me you'll do that. [Pleading] Promise me!
Read the dedication.
"To my father, who's coming home". Thank you, but I— I don't understand.
It was me. It was me all along. I've been dragging you through time like an anchor, and now it's time to cut you loose.
Jake, what are you saying?
It won't be long now.
Jake, you didn't have to do this. Not for me.
For you, and for the boy that I was. He needs you, more than you know. Don't you see? We're going to get a second... chance.
S4 E4Hippocratic Oath
Keiko only spends a few days at a time on the station. I'm the one living in those quarters, and if I want to set up a little workshop in the bedroom—
You set up a workshop in the bedroom?
Yeah. I don't use it when she's visiting.
No, of course not.
She says I'm trying to live like a bachelor again, that I'm expressing a subconscious desire to push her out of our quarters.
Now that is ridiculous.
That's what I said!
I mean, if anything, by spending your free time in the bedroom, a place you intimately associate with Keiko, you are actually expressing...a desire to be closer to her...during her absence. It's quite touching, really.
Exactly! Exactly! See, you understand. Why can't she see that? Why can't she be more like—
More like?
[Beat] Uh, a man. Y—you know, more like a man.
So...you wish that Keiko...was a man.
I wish I was on this trip with someone else, that's what I wish.
What a lovely place. Smells like a garbage dump.
I'm sorry I couldn't find a nicer place to crash-land. Should we try again?
S4 E5Indiscretion
Tell me something—who's Tora Ziyal? When I reactivated the Ravinok's computer, I downloaded the manifest. There were two civilians on board, in addition to the prisoners and the crew. Your... friend Tora Naprem and a Tora Ziyal, a thirteen year-old girl.
I suppose you wouldn't believe me if I told you she was Naprem's sister?
Ziyal is a Cardassian name.
S4 E6Rejoined
Quite an audience.
Seems a shame to disappoint them. We should probably do something.
We could get into a screaming match. Start throwing things at each other?
Not bad. Or I suppose we could throw ourselves at each other—profess our undying love and complete disregard for Trill society?
Doctor Pren would probably have a heart attack!
What do Klingons dream about?
Things that will send cold chills down your spine and wake you in the middle of the night. No, it is better that you do not know. Excuse me. [He leaves]
I can never tell when he's joking.
Perhaps it is better that we 'do not know'.
