Tora Ziyal and Kira Nerys in “Return to Grace”

You don't like my father very much, do you?

Kira Nerys

No, I don't.

I understand. He did some very bad things during the Occupation.

Kira Nerys

Yes, he did.

It bothers him, you know?

Kira Nerys

[Disbelieving] Does it?

Very much. He talks about it sometimes. He'd never admit it to anyone else, but he thinks the Occupation was a mistake.

Kira Nerys

Somehow, I don't think he'd say that if the Cardassians had won.

Maybe not, but maybe losing made him a better person.

Kira Nerys

Well, then, a lot of innocent people died for his education.
