[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.
S7 E20The Changing Face of Evil
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!
S7 E21When It Rains
[Kira is informed of her new orders to teach guerilla tactics to the Cardassian Rebellion]
You want me to go behind enemy lines and teach a bunch of Cardassians how to be resistance fighters?
I'm aware of the irony.
[Odo and Kira are proposing the Cardassian Rebellion attack a Dominion weapons depot on Adarak Prime]
Adarak Prime is defended by a Cardassian garrison.
That's correct.
CSCardassian soldier
You expect us to attack our own people?
If necessary, yes.
That is out of the question!
I agree. We'll limit ourselves to targets defended by the Jem'Hadar and the Breen.
Believe me, I understand how you feel. During the occupation, I didn't want to attack any facility that had a Bajoran working in it, but I did it because they were collaborators. They were working with the enemy.
We're not Bajorans! We don't kill our own.
Well then you might as well just give up right now, because the minute the Dominion realises you will not attack your own people, they will station a Cardassian at every base they have.
She's right. The Founders won't hesitate to play your own people against you.
Anyone who is not fighting with you is fighting against you.
S7 E22Tacking Into the Wind
[Damar has just learned his entire family has been killed by the Dominion in retaliation for his rebellion.]
[taking in the news] They weren't a part of this rebellion. The Dominion knew that. The Founder knew that. Weyoun knew that. To kill her and my son. The casual brutality of it. The waste of life. What kind of state tolerates the murder of innocent women and children? What kind of people give those orders?
Yeah, Damar, what kind of people give those orders?
[Damar silently stares at Kira, but then, realizing Kira's words are correct, he leaves.]
Oh, that was stupid.
Not at all. Damar has a certain... romanticism about the past. He could use a dose of cold water.
Well, I could have picked a better time.
If he's the man to lead a new Cardassia, if he's the man we all hope him to be, then the pain of this news made him more receptive to what you said, not less.
Look. I'm just not sure that I should be giving you advice on what to do in this situation. It's a Klingon matter.
You are still a member of the House of Martok.
This is the first that I've heard of it.
The General and I talked about it weeks ago. He likes you. And he considers you an honorable woman. A worthy successor to Jadzia. And so do I.
That's very sweet of him.
"Sweet"?
Not a very 'Klingon' word, is it?
No.
It's very... honorable.
Better. Albeit a little obvious.
[Rusot is a standoff with Kira and Garak]
You're still a Cardassian, Garak. You're not going to kill one of your own people for a Bajoran woman!
[aiming a phaser at Rusot's head] How little you understand me.
Put your weapons down, both of you!
You want her dead too, Damar, I know you do. But you're the leader of the rebellion, and don't want to kill someone wearing a Starfleet uniform. Let me do it for you! [an electronic alert bleeps]
They've finished installing the dampening weapon.
Then let's all get the hell out of here.
Not you. [aims his rifle at Kira's head]
I'm still here, Rusot.
Damar, shoot him. We can kill them both and keep the Breen weapon for ourselves. I believe in you, Damar. I know you're the right man to restore the Empire we so loyally served. The Empire we loved. Together we can lead our people to greatness again. Just aim and fire. [Damar aims and fires his disruptor, killing Rusot]
[to a shocked Kira and Garak] He was my friend. But his Cardassia's dead, and it won't be coming back.
You rule without wisdom and without honour. The warriors that are gathered here will not say this to you, but I will. You are squandering our ships and our lives on a petty act of vengeance.
[angrily] I should have known better than to trust you again! If you were a true Klingon, I would kill you where you stand! Fortunately for you, that child's uniform shields you from your rightful fate. [Worf removes his comm badge]
What I say now, I say as a member of the House of Martok, not a Starfleet officer. You have dishonoured yourself and the Empire, and you are not worthy to lead the Council!
[outraged] There can be only one answer to that!
S7 E23Extreme Measures
I've got so much to say, I-I dont know where to begin.
Just say you love me. That's all I've ever cared about.
I love you, Odo.
I love you, Nerys.
