1. Now, I know we're doomed.Copy !req
2. Why, brother?Copy !req
3. Rule of Acquisition 286:Copy !req
4. "When Morn leaves,
it's all over."Copy !req
5. There is no such rule.Copy !req
6. There should be.Copy !req
7. Oh, I know business is bad,
but that's no reason...Copy !req
8. Bad? Bad?Copy !req
9. It's 2100 hours.Copy !req
10. The bar's open.Copy !req
11. There's a sale on syntheholCopy !req
12. and there's no one here.Copy !req
13. You, Ferengi!Copy !req
14. Another bloodwine now!Copy !req
15. At least someone is still here.Copy !req
16. How many has he had?Copy !req
17. A dozen.Copy !req
18. I should have gone
into insurance...Copy !req
19. better hours, more money,
less scruples.Copy !req
20. It's all Sisko's fault.Copy !req
21. Sisko?Copy !req
22. That's right.Copy !req
23. If he'd handled things better
with the DominionCopy !req
24. none of this
would have happened.Copy !req
25. They want a foothold
in the Alpha Quadrant.Copy !req
26. Cut a deal.
Make a few arrangements.Copy !req
27. Give them a little something
for their trouble.Copy !req
28. Brother?Copy !req
29. But no!
He had to play it tough.Copy !req
30. So now everyone's afraid
of the Dominion.Copy !req
31. Yes, but, brother?Copy !req
32. And that means
fewer people on the stationCopy !req
33. which means
fewer people at Quark'sCopy !req
34. which means
I am out of business.Copy !req
35. Where's my wine, you cowering
little Ferengi slug?Copy !req
36. What's the problem?Copy !req
37. He says he's out of money.Copy !req
38. He's asking for credit.Copy !req
39. Credit?Copy !req
40. I'll handle it.Copy !req
41. Watch and learn.Copy !req
42. My name is Quark.Copy !req
43. I'm... like to discuss, uh,
arranging a line of credit.Copy !req
44. You dare talk to me like that?Copy !req
45. You pathetic mak'dar.Copy !req
46. How long are they going
to leave him there?Copy !req
47. I wish they would hurry up
and get rid of him.Copy !req
48. I wish we could
put him on display.Copy !req
49. What?Copy !req
50. Look at them.Copy !req
51. They're consumed
with morbid fascination.Copy !req
52. They can't wait to get in here.Copy !req
53. They all want to know
what happened.Copy !req
54. Was it a bar fight?Copy !req
55. What started it?Copy !req
56. And most of all,
who killed the Klingon?Copy !req
57. But no one killed him.
It was an accident.Copy !req
58. I killed him in a bar fight.Copy !req
59. Wha?Copy !req
60. You heard me.Copy !req
61. I killed him in self-defense.Copy !req
62. But where is the profitCopy !req
63. in lying
about a simple drunken?Copy !req
64. Look at that crowd.Copy !req
65. How long has it been
since you've seenCopy !req
66. that many customers
waiting to get in here?Copy !req
67. This is an opportunity
to turn everything around.Copy !req
68. This is insane, brother.Copy !req
69. What if his family comes
looking for the killer?Copy !req
70. What if they want revenge?Copy !req
71. If push comes to shoveCopy !req
72. we tell the truth
and no harm done.Copy !req
73. Rom, let me put it another way.Copy !req
74. If business doesn't improve,
I'll have to start makingCopy !req
75. a few cutbacks
in the operation of my barCopy !req
76. beginning with... your salary.Copy !req
77. How big of a cutback?Copy !req
78. I'd probably have
to cut it back to zero.Copy !req
79. All right, Quark.Copy !req
80. Start at the beginning.Copy !req
81. My brother fought a desperateCopy !req
82. hand-to-hand battle
with the KlingonCopy !req
83. and was forced to kill
in self-defense.Copy !req
84. You killed him?Copy !req
85. I'm sorry.Copy !req
86. I couldn't avoid it.Copy !req
87. He was abusive...Copy !req
88. vulgar.Copy !req
89. A typical drunken Klingon.Copy !req
90. All that was fineCopy !req
91. until it came time
to pay his bill.Copy !req
92. He refused.
I insisted.Copy !req
93. We began to argue.Copy !req
94. He pushed me.Copy !req
95. I pushed back.Copy !req
96. I was about
to call for securityCopy !req
97. to throw him out of my barCopy !req
98. when suddenly,
he pulls a knife on me!Copy !req
99. I avoided the first thrust.Copy !req
100. He came at me again.Copy !req
101. I hit him with a left jab.Copy !req
102. There was
a furious exchange of blows.Copy !req
103. The next thing I knewCopy !req
104. his knife was at my throat.Copy !req
105. So, I twisted it
out of his graspCopy !req
106. and plunged it into his chest.Copy !req
107. I will never forget
the look on his faceCopy !req
108. when his life drained away.Copy !req
109. I'd rather not talk
about this anymore.Copy !req
110. Hi, honey.Copy !req
111. Hi.Copy !req
112. Oh, what a day.Copy !req
113. Synthale, tall glass.Copy !req
114. We had three Coverian
freighter captainsCopy !req
115. all wanting to use
the same docking port.Copy !req
116. Someone stole a case
of medical suppliesCopy !req
117. from the Infirmary.Copy !req
118. Two power failures.Copy !req
119. How was school?Copy !req
120. I closed it.Copy !req
121. You closed the school?Copy !req
122. Well, why?Copy !req
123. What happened?Copy !req
124. My last two Bajoran
students left today.Copy !req
125. Their families
relocated back to Bajor.Copy !req
126. That left Jake, Nog
and a lot of empty chairs.Copy !req
127. Well, what about Jake and Nog?Copy !req
128. Won't they have to?Copy !req
129. I told them I'd be happy
to tutor them from now on.Copy !req
130. Two students are not
enough to sustain a school.Copy !req
131. I'm really sorry, Keiko.Copy !req
132. It's not your fault.Copy !req
133. Everyone's just afraid
of the Dominion.Copy !req
134. People aren't going to be
moving their familiesCopy !req
135. to the station anymore.Copy !req
136. That means no more childrenCopy !req
137. which means no more school.Copy !req
138. Don't look so upset.Copy !req
139. It's not like I was planningCopy !req
140. to be a teacher
for the rest of my life.Copy !req
141. Keiko.Copy !req
142. I'm fine, really.Copy !req
143. Don't worry, Constable.Copy !req
144. I won't be dispatching
any more customers today.Copy !req
145. You don't have
to keep an eye on me.Copy !req
146. Oh, thank you for putting
my mind at easeCopy !req
147. but I didn't come here
to protect the patronsCopy !req
148. from your violent temper.Copy !req
149. Then what can I do for you?Copy !req
150. I just thought you'd
like to know who it wasCopy !req
151. that you killed in self-defense.Copy !req
152. Sure.Copy !req
153. His name was Kozak,
by all accountsCopy !req
154. a thoroughly
disreputable character.Copy !req
155. A notorious drunkard.Copy !req
156. Well, sounds like someone
who was goingCopy !req
157. to get himself killed
sooner or later.Copy !req
158. It's a shame it had
to happen here.Copy !req
159. Hmm, isn't it?Copy !req
160. I thought you'd also
like to knowCopy !req
161. that Kozak wasn't just
some drifter passing through.Copy !req
162. In fact, he was the head
of a Klingon familyCopy !req
163. a rather powerful family,
from what I can gather.Copy !req
164. Now, do you want
to change your storyCopy !req
165. or do you want to wait
for Kozak's familyCopy !req
166. to show up and ask to seeCopy !req
167. the Ferengi bartender
who killed him?Copy !req
168. I told you what happened,
Constable.Copy !req
169. Now, either order somethingCopy !req
170. or make room
for a paying customer.Copy !req
171. Brother, didn't you hear
what he said?Copy !req
172. I heard him.Copy !req
173. Then we have
to tell the truth.Copy !req
174. We've made enough profit
in the last few hoursCopy !req
175. to make up
for the losses we had...Copy !req
176. It's not about profit anymore.Copy !req
177. It's about respect.Copy !req
178. It is?Copy !req
179. You see the way
they look at me now.Copy !req
180. I'm not just some venal Ferengi
trying to take their money.Copy !req
181. I'm Quark, slayer
of Klingons.Copy !req
182. I've struck a blow
for Ferengi everywhere.Copy !req
183. But what about Kozak's family?Copy !req
184. What if they come here
for revenge?Copy !req
185. If that happensCopy !req
186. I'll stand up, look them
straight in the eyeCopy !req
187. and offer them a bribe.Copy !req
188. You killed my brother.Copy !req
189. My brother killed
by a miserable Ferengi.Copy !req
190. I never would have
believed it possible.Copy !req
191. I can explain.Copy !req
192. You'd better!Copy !req
193. I want to know
exactly how Kozak diedCopy !req
194. and if I don't like
what I hear...Copy !req
195. Believe me, you'll like it.Copy !req
196. He was in my bar.Copy !req
197. I asked him to pay his tab.Copy !req
198. He refused.Copy !req
199. I was willing
to let it go at thatCopy !req
200. but then, he pulled a knife
and came at meCopy !req
201. and the truth
of the matter isCopy !req
202. he was so inebriated
that he just fell...Copy !req
203. I hope you're not
going to tell meCopy !req
204. that he died in an accident.Copy !req
205. You do?Copy !req
206. Yes! Because there would be
no honor in such a death.Copy !req
207. And if Kozak died in disgraceCopy !req
208. then that disgrace
would be passed alongCopy !req
209. to the rest of his family.Copy !req
210. So if you were
the cause of an accidentCopy !req
211. that will dishonor
my entire familyCopy !req
212. then I'm going to kill youCopy !req
213. and stuff your miserable corpse
out the nearest airlock.Copy !req
214. I see.Copy !req
215. On the other handCopy !req
216. if he died as a warrior
in personal combatCopy !req
217. then there would be no dishonor
for him or his family.Copy !req
218. So what you're saying isCopy !req
219. if I killed him
in personal combat, that's good.Copy !req
220. Of course it isn't good!Copy !req
221. He was my brother...Copy !req
222. but...Copy !req
223. it would be honorableCopy !req
224. and an honorable death
requires no vengeance.Copy !req
225. Your life would be spared.Copy !req
226. I wish you had been there.Copy !req
227. You would have been proud
of your brother.Copy !req
228. He fought a brave
and valiant battleCopy !req
229. right up to the end.Copy !req
230. It was an honor to kill him.Copy !req
231. I'm sure it was.Copy !req
232. Remember that
when you tell your customersCopy !req
233. about the death of Kozak.Copy !req
234. You can count on it.Copy !req
235. Qapla'!Copy !req
236. What's going on?Copy !req
237. You're five minutes early.Copy !req
238. The canapés aren't ready yet.Copy !req
239. Have I missed something?Copy !req
240. Now, don't tell me
you've forgotten what day it is.Copy !req
241. Well, it, it's not
our anniversaryCopy !req
242. or my birthday or...Copy !req
243. I can't believe
you've forgotten.Copy !req
244. It's "I'm married
to the most wonderful womanCopy !req
245. in the galaxy" day.Copy !req
246. I marked it in your calendar.Copy !req
247. I don't think I'm too familiar
with that day.Copy !req
248. Oh, it's an old Irish tradition.Copy !req
249. Here we go.Copy !req
250. Ooh!Copy !req
251. I thought I should
start celebrating it.Copy !req
252. Too bad it only
comes once a year.Copy !req
253. Well, actually, it's
a very irregular holiday...Copy !req
254. crops up all over the place...Copy !req
255. sometimes twice a day.Copy !req
256. Really?Copy !req
257. What's a traditional
celebration?Copy !req
258. Cake?Copy !req
259. Mm-mm.Copy !req
260. Noisemakers?Copy !req
261. Mm-mm.Copy !req
262. Fireworks?Copy !req
263. Oh, definitely fireworks.Copy !req
264. I should be finished
the docking inspectionCopy !req
265. by 1300 hours.Copy !req
266. How about lunch
in the Replimat?Copy !req
267. Sounds good to me.Copy !req
268. It's a date then.Copy !req
269. See you later.Copy !req
270. Hey...Copy !req
271. just wanted to thank you
for last night.Copy !req
272. It was wonderful.Copy !req
273. You've already thanked me.Copy !req
274. Have a good day.Copy !req
275. I'll be in Upper Pylon 2
if you need me.Copy !req
276. I'll be here.Copy !req
277. Who's there?Copy !req
278. We're closed.Copy !req
279. Are you Quark?Copy !req
280. That depends on who's asking.Copy !req
281. My name is Grilka.Copy !req
282. Kozak was my husband.Copy !req
283. Oh, uh... well, come in.Copy !req
284. Can I get you a drink
or something to eat?Copy !req
285. I've been toldCopy !req
286. that you are the one
who killed my husband.Copy !req
287. I didn't want to.Copy !req
288. I had no choice.Copy !req
289. Was it an honorable death?Copy !req
290. Absolutely.Copy !req
291. He died like a warrior.Copy !req
292. I'm very sorry this happened.Copy !req
293. Is there something I can do?Copy !req
294. Actually, there is.Copy !req
295. Defend yourself!Copy !req
296. So this is the man who killed
my husband in personal combat.Copy !req
297. What's this all about?
Who are you?Copy !req
298. I already told you.Copy !req
299. I'm Kozak's widow,
but first things first, Quark.Copy !req
300. I want to know
how my husband diedCopy !req
301. and I want the truth.Copy !req
302. All right.Copy !req
303. He was drunk and he did try
to attack meCopy !req
304. but he tripped and fell
on his own knife.Copy !req
305. So you lied to the station
security officerCopy !req
306. to your customers,
and to D'Ghor.Copy !req
307. You must be quite a liar.Copy !req
308. It's a gift.Copy !req
309. I think it's time you put
that gift to work... for me.Copy !req
310. Cho'echu!Copy !req
311. What...Copy !req
312. What happened?Copy !req
313. Where am I?Copy !req
314. You are on Kronos.Copy !req
315. Kronos...Copy !req
316. the Klingon Homeworld.Copy !req
317. You are in the ancestral homeCopy !req
318. of what used to be known
as the House of Kozak.Copy !req
319. What's it called now?Copy !req
320. Kozak died without a male heir.Copy !req
321. The House no longer has a name.Copy !req
322. What about Kozak's brother,
D'Ghor?Copy !req
323. Juht! That pahtk's name
is not spoken in this house.Copy !req
324. He is no brother to Kozak.Copy !req
325. His family has been
a sworn enemy to this HouseCopy !req
326. for seven generations.Copy !req
327. But he came to DS9.Copy !req
328. He told me...Copy !req
329. What he told you were lies.Copy !req
330. He wanted you to say that Kozak
had died in honorable combatCopy !req
331. so that no special dispensation
would be granted.Copy !req
332. I don't understand.Copy !req
333. If Kozak had died in an accident
and left no male heirCopy !req
334. the Council might have decidedCopy !req
335. that this was
an unusual situationCopy !req
336. and granted
special dispensation.Copy !req
337. That might have allowed
Grilka to becomeCopy !req
338. head of the family,
even though she's a womanCopy !req
339. but if Kozak died
in an honorable fightCopy !req
340. was defeated simply
by a better opponentCopy !req
341. then no dispensation
would have been grantedCopy !req
342. and without a male heir,
the House will fall.Copy !req
343. That hasn't happened yet, Tumek,
and there is still timeCopy !req
344. to prevent it
from ever happening.Copy !req
345. Put this on.Copy !req
346. Why?Copy !req
347. Because if you do not,
I will kill you.Copy !req
348. I beg you.Copy !req
349. Consider what you do here,
mistress.Copy !req
350. The decision is made.Copy !req
351. There is no other choice.Copy !req
352. Go'Eveh, lu cha wabeh,
Mo ka re'Chos.Copy !req
353. Repeat my words.Copy !req
354. Go'Eveh, lu cha wabeh,
To va re'Luk.Copy !req
355. Let me ask just one...Copy !req
356. Repeat the words.Copy !req
357. Go'Eveh, lu cha wabeh,
To va re'Luk.Copy !req
358. GhoS ma'lu Kah.Copy !req
359. It is done.Copy !req
360. What's done?Copy !req
361. The ceremony is complete.Copy !req
362. You are husband and wife.Copy !req
363. And while you're at itCopy !req
364. have Alpha shift begin
a series of battle drills.Copy !req
365. I'm not satisfied with their
last performance evaluations.Copy !req
366. Right.Copy !req
367. Oh, ah, excuse me, sir.Copy !req
368. I can come back later.Copy !req
369. No, no, no.
We're done here.Copy !req
370. What can I do for you?Copy !req
371. Well, it's...Copy !req
372. it's kind of private.Copy !req
373. Wife problems, Chief?Copy !req
374. How did you know?Copy !req
375. Well, I've been a husband
and I've been a wifeCopy !req
376. and I know that look
from both sides.Copy !req
377. Come on.Copy !req
378. What?Copy !req
379. This is where we make
a graceful exitCopy !req
380. and let the boys talk
amongst themselves.Copy !req
381. Must be some kind
of human thing.Copy !req
382. Well, I'm sure the old manCopy !req
383. will be happy
to explain it to youCopy !req
384. on your way out.Copy !req
385. Chief.Copy !req
386. I guess, uh, Keiko
must be very upsetCopy !req
387. about the school closing, huh?Copy !req
388. Well, that's just it, sir.Copy !req
389. She's acting
like she doesn't careCopy !req
390. like there's nothing wrong.Copy !req
391. That sounds bad.Copy !req
392. I've tried to lift
her spirits a bit...Copy !req
393. romantic dinnersCopy !req
394. long moonlit walks
in the holosuite.Copy !req
395. I even rearranged
my work scheduleCopy !req
396. so I could spend
more time with her.Copy !req
397. Nothing seems
to make a difference.Copy !req
398. But now you have an idea?Copy !req
399. Oh, yes, sir.Copy !req
400. Um, I, I'd like permission
to convertCopy !req
401. one of the empty cargo
bays into an arboretum.Copy !req
402. I think Bay 21 would be ideal.Copy !req
403. The ODN conduits are shotCopy !req
404. and the security system's
never worked anyway.Copy !req
405. So you're saying yes?Copy !req
406. Ah, sounds like it to me.Copy !req
407. Listen...Copy !req
408. there's nothing
harder than knowingCopy !req
409. that the person you love
is unhappy.Copy !req
410. And I know how important it is
to do something about it.Copy !req
411. If one empty cargo bay
makes Keiko happyCopy !req
412. then I'm all for it.Copy !req
413. I just hope it works.Copy !req
414. So do I.Copy !req
415. She sacrificed her entire career
to be here with me.Copy !req
416. I owe her.Copy !req
417. If there's anything else
I can do, just let me know.Copy !req
418. Thank you, sir.Copy !req
419. There being no special
circumstances in the deathCopy !req
420. and no male heirCopy !req
421. I make claimCopy !req
422. to the title and property
of this fallen House.Copy !req
423. The Council has considered
your petitionCopy !req
424. and will grant the transferCopy !req
425. once the final rituals
have been...Copy !req
426. The petition is out of order.Copy !req
427. This woman has no place here.Copy !req
428. Her husband is dead
and her House is fallen.Copy !req
429. I ask that she be taken
from the hall...Copy !req
430. I have performed
the brek'tal ritual, GowronCopy !req
431. and have chosen
a new husband to lead my House.Copy !req
432. Enter, husband!Copy !req
433. A Ferengi cannot be allowed
to rule a Klingon House!Copy !req
434. All I have done is follow
the brek'tal ritual.Copy !req
435. If the leader of a House
is slain in honorable combatCopy !req
436. the victor may be invited
to take his placeCopy !req
437. and his wife.Copy !req
438. You are the one that made
this possible, D'Ghor.Copy !req
439. You certified before the CouncilCopy !req
440. that Kozak died
an honorable deathCopy !req
441. at the hands of this man.Copy !req
442. I am simply exercising
my rights as an honored widow.Copy !req
443. I will have your House
and your title, GrilkaCopy !req
444. and when I am done,
I will place your headCopy !req
445. and the head
of this ridiculous FerengiCopy !req
446. outside the gates.Copy !req
447. Uh, can I say something?Copy !req
448. It seems there's
some kind of disputeCopy !req
449. going on over some land,
maybe some other property...Copy !req
450. I think maybe we should
consider a deal.Copy !req
451. I should kill you right now.Copy !req
452. Mev yap!Copy !req
453. D'Ghor, you cannot challenge
this man in CouncilCopy !req
454. without just cause.Copy !req
455. We will have to consider
this matter carefullyCopy !req
456. before a final decision
is reached.Copy !req
457. Until then,
the brek'tal will be respected.Copy !req
458. The House of Kozak is gone.Copy !req
459. For the time being, it will be
known as... as the House of...Copy !req
460. Quark.Copy !req
461. Quirk.Copy !req
462. Quark!Copy !req
463. The House of Quark.Copy !req
464. I told you not to say anything.Copy !req
465. I was trying to avoid a lot
of unnecessary bloodshed...Copy !req
466. like my own.Copy !req
467. Just do as I say and there
won't be any bloodshed.Copy !req
468. Fine.Copy !req
469. What's next?Copy !req
470. What do we do now?Copy !req
471. How do we strengthen
the position of your House?Copy !req
472. How do we keep D'Ghor
from carrying out his threats?Copy !req
473. What's the plan?Copy !req
474. I'm thinking.Copy !req
475. You don't have a plan, do you?Copy !req
476. You're just making
this up as you go along.Copy !req
477. I've managed to get us this far.Copy !req
478. But you have no idea
where to go from here.Copy !req
479. Can I make a suggestion?Copy !req
480. Let's try having a more
equal partnership, shall we?Copy !req
481. What do you want?Copy !req
482. Just tell me what's going on.Copy !req
483. Kozak squandered much
of our family's wealthCopy !req
484. incurred several
large gambling debtsCopy !req
485. made unwise investments.Copy !req
486. As a result, the House has
been weakened severelyCopy !req
487. in power and in influence.Copy !req
488. Much of the debt
is owed to D'GhorCopy !req
489. who is now ready to take
advantage of our weakness.Copy !req
490. If he can gain title
of our lands and propertyCopy !req
491. his family will becomeCopy !req
492. a very powerful influence
in the Empire.Copy !req
493. He may even earn
a seat on the Council.Copy !req
494. Would it be possible for meCopy !req
495. to see all the financial
records of your HouseCopy !req
496. and I mean all of them?Copy !req
497. D'Ghor's, too,
if you can arrange it.Copy !req
498. Maybe I can find a way
out of this mess.Copy !req
499. That is not
how we do things here.Copy !req
500. We are Klingons.Copy !req
501. We do not dirty ourselves
with filthy ledgersCopy !req
502. looking
for some financial trick.Copy !req
503. Look, we've been doing
things your wayCopy !req
504. ever since this started
and now you've run out of ideas.Copy !req
505. So maybe we should try doing
things my way for a change.Copy !req
506. It certainly can't hurtCopy !req
507. to let me look
at some "filthy ledgers."Copy !req
508. Good afternoon, Chief.Copy !req
509. Doctor.Copy !req
510. Plomeek soup, hot.Copy !req
511. Oh, with a touch of basil.Copy !req
512. What do you think?Copy !req
513. You're asking my opinion?Copy !req
514. An arboretum.
For Keiko, I presumeCopy !req
515. to make her a little happierCopy !req
516. now the school's
been closed down.Copy !req
517. It's not just for Keiko.Copy !req
518. I mean, it'd benefit
the entire station.Copy !req
519. Do you think it'll work?Copy !req
520. Absolutely...Copy !req
521. for about two months.Copy !req
522. Then you'll be right back
where you started.Copy !req
523. Two months?Copy !req
524. Well, it's been my experienceCopy !req
525. that during any
serious disagreementCopy !req
526. a smile and sweet words
will buy you two hoursCopy !req
527. flowers will buy you a weekCopy !req
528. an arboretum, well,
that's at least two months.Copy !req
529. But, in the endCopy !req
530. you still have to solve
the underlying problem.Copy !req
531. I thought an arboretumCopy !req
532. would give her a chance
to continue her studies.Copy !req
533. Help her find something
to do with her time.Copy !req
534. Like a hobby?Copy !req
535. Exactly.Copy !req
536. Exactly why it won't work.Copy !req
537. You can't ask her to turn
her profession into a hobby.Copy !req
538. Would you be satisfied just
pottering around in a workshopCopy !req
539. building nano-circuit boards
and playing with tricorders?Copy !req
540. I suppose not.Copy !req
541. You're Chief of OperationsCopy !req
542. I'm a doctor,
and Keiko's a botanistCopy !req
543. and until she can be
a botanist againCopy !req
544. I'm not sure she's ever
really going to be happy.Copy !req
545. Very clever.Copy !req
546. Very clever, indeed.Copy !req
547. D'Ghor has manipulated
your family's holdingsCopy !req
548. devalued the lands you holdCopy !req
549. and he is
the principal creditorCopy !req
550. on Kozak's outstanding
gambling debts.Copy !req
551. It's no accident
your family's getting weakerCopy !req
552. and D'Ghor's family
is getting stronger.Copy !req
553. He's been systematically
attacking your family's assetsCopy !req
554. for over five years now.Copy !req
555. You mean D'Ghor
has been schemingCopy !req
556. and plotting like a F...Copy !req
557. Like a Ferengi.Copy !req
558. There is no honor
in what he has done.Copy !req
559. If he wanted
to challenge my HouseCopy !req
560. he should have made
a declarationCopy !req
561. met our forces in battle.Copy !req
562. And risk destroying
the very thing he wanted most...Copy !req
563. your lands and property?Copy !req
564. Can you prove any of this?Copy !req
565. You can show the Council
exactly what D'Ghor has done?Copy !req
566. It's all right there.Copy !req
567. All I have to do
is talk them through it.Copy !req
568. Thank you, Quark.Copy !req
569. You may have saved my family.Copy !req
570. Well, it is the House
of Quark, after all.Copy !req
571. I really am very grateful
for all you've done, Quark.Copy !req
572. That is why I'm going to let
you take your hand off my thighCopy !req
573. instead of shattering
every bone in your body.Copy !req
574. Let's go talk to the Council.Copy !req
575. So, as you can see
from the gross adjustedCopy !req
576. assets tabulation in Column "J"Copy !req
577. the net value
of the land acquisitionCopy !req
578. was actually zero.Copy !req
579. Now, if you go to the fileCopy !req
580. marked "devaluation
of capital income"Copy !req
581. we can review the way D'Ghor...Copy !req
582. Enough.Copy !req
583. I don't want to hear
anything moreCopy !req
584. about finances, mergers
or currency transactions.Copy !req
585. The charge has been made
that you have used moneyCopy !req
586. to bring down a great House.Copy !req
587. What do you say to this, D'Ghor?Copy !req
588. I say that he is a liar.Copy !req
589. That he has smeared my name
and I demand vengeanceCopy !req
590. through personal combat.Copy !req
591. I have discovered new evidenceCopy !req
592. evidence which proves
Kozak did not die honorably.Copy !req
593. That he actually died
in an accident.Copy !req
594. I have a witness who will sayCopy !req
595. he watched Kozak trip
and fall on his own bladeCopy !req
596. and that Quark made up
the entire story.Copy !req
597. I don't know what
he's trying to pull here.Copy !req
598. The only other person
who was there was...Copy !req
599. Hello, brother.Copy !req
600. Come on, this way.Copy !req
601. And keep quiet!Copy !req
602. I thought
you might try to leave.Copy !req
603. Look, I have done my part
in this little game of yoursCopy !req
604. and I am sorry
about your House and titleCopy !req
605. but there's a man out there
that wants to kill me tomorrow.Copy !req
606. It's a matter of honor, Quark.Copy !req
607. D'Ghor has accused you of lying.Copy !req
608. There's no way
to answer that challengeCopy !req
609. except through personal combat.Copy !req
610. To you Klingons
there may be no other wayCopy !req
611. but there's
an old Ferengi sayingCopy !req
612. about discretion being
the better part of valor.Copy !req
613. Then what they say
about the Ferengi is true.Copy !req
614. You're all lying,
thieving cowardsCopy !req
615. who have no sense
of loyalty or honor.Copy !req
616. Sticks and stones.Copy !req
617. I thought you were different.Copy !req
618. I thought you had
something in here.Copy !req
619. But all you have in there
is a piece of latinum.Copy !req
620. And it's a pretty small piece
at that.Copy !req
621. Let them run.Copy !req
622. I don't want them in my House.Copy !req
623. All right, let's go.Copy !req
624. What?Copy !req
625. What?Copy !req
626. You think I should stay
and fight D'Ghor?Copy !req
627. Is that what you're thinking?Copy !req
628. How could you let her
get to you like this?Copy !req
629. Don't you see
what she's trying to do?Copy !req
630. She's trying to make us
feel guilty.Copy !req
631. Well, it's not going to work.Copy !req
632. You're right, brother.Copy !req
633. You're a businessman.Copy !req
634. All you care about is profit.Copy !req
635. Right.Copy !req
636. This was all just a ploy
to boost sales at the bar.Copy !req
637. Who cares if some Klingon
female loses her House?Copy !req
638. I certainly don't.Copy !req
639. Me neither.Copy !req
640. Well...Copy !req
641. Now, let's get out of here.Copy !req
642. GrilkaCopy !req
643. where is the leader
of your House?Copy !req
644. I do not know.Copy !req
645. Then I say
that the House of QuarkCopy !req
646. has dishonored itself
before this CouncilCopy !req
647. and I ask that it be dissolved,
and its land and propertyCopy !req
648. be turned over to me
as compensation for...Copy !req
649. I am Quark, son of KeldarCopy !req
650. and I have come to answer
the challenge of D'GhorCopy !req
651. son of... whatever.Copy !req
652. Whatever happens,
I am proud of you.Copy !req
653. I wish I could say
that's comforting.Copy !req
654. Ready?Copy !req
655. Ready?Copy !req
656. DaH!Copy !req
657. Go ahead, kill me.Copy !req
658. That is why I'm here,
isn't it...Copy !req
659. to be killed?Copy !req
660. Well, here I am.Copy !req
661. So go ahead and do it.Copy !req
662. You all want me
to pick up that swordCopy !req
663. and fight him, don't you?Copy !req
664. But I don't have a chance
and you know it.Copy !req
665. You only want me
to put up a fightCopy !req
666. so that your precious honor
will be satisfied.Copy !req
667. Well, I'm not going to make it
so easy for you.Copy !req
668. Having me fight D'GhorCopy !req
669. is nothing more
than an execution.Copy !req
670. So, if that's what you want
that's what you'll get...Copy !req
671. an execution.Copy !req
672. No honorCopy !req
673. no glory.Copy !req
674. And when you tell your children
and your grandchildrenCopy !req
675. the glorious story
of how you rose to powerCopy !req
676. and took Grilka's House
from herCopy !req
677. I hope you remember to tell themCopy !req
678. how you heroically killed
an unarmed Ferengi...Copy !req
679. half your size.Copy !req
680. Whatever you say, Ferengi.Copy !req
681. D'Ghor!
What are you doing?Copy !req
682. I didn't want
to believe the thingsCopy !req
683. he said about you yesterday,
but if you can stand hereCopy !req
684. and murder
this pathetic little manCopy !req
685. then you have no honor...Copy !req
686. and you have no place
in this hall.Copy !req
687. A brave Ferengi.Copy !req
688. Who would have
thought it possible?Copy !req
689. I believe there are enough
unusual circumstances hereCopy !req
690. to justify granting you
special dispensation.Copy !req
691. You can lead your House
on your ownCopy !req
692. if that is what you want.Copy !req
693. Yej rhin!Copy !req
694. You have given me back my House
and my family name.Copy !req
695. How can I repay you?Copy !req
696. I would like a divorce, please.Copy !req
697. No offense.Copy !req
698. None taken.Copy !req
699. I can give it to you right away.Copy !req
700. N'Gos tlhogh cha!Copy !req
701. You're a free man.Copy !req
702. A little warning
would've been nice.Copy !req
703. Qapla', Quark...Copy !req
704. son of Keldar.Copy !req
705. Qapla'to you, too.Copy !req
706. I've never understood
what people see in that game.Copy !req
707. Don't they ever get sick of it?Copy !req
708. Keiko...Copy !req
709. there's an agrobiology
expeditionCopy !req
710. leaving
for the Janitza mountainsCopy !req
711. on Bajor in two weeks.Copy !req
712. They need a chief botanist.Copy !req
713. I think you could
probably qualify.Copy !req
714. On Bajor?Copy !req
715. That's right.Copy !req
716. They've never surveyed
these mountains.Copy !req
717. It's a very important
expedition.Copy !req
718. How long is this expedition
supposed to last?Copy !req
719. Six months.Copy !req
720. I can't leave you
and Molly for six months.Copy !req
721. You can take Molly with you.Copy !req
722. I've already checked.Copy !req
723. And as for me...Copy !req
724. well, Bajor's only three
hours away in a runabout.Copy !req
725. We can manage.Copy !req
726. When we moved here,
we made an agreement...Copy !req
727. I know.Copy !req
728. And I'm not trying
to back out of that agreement.Copy !req
729. Don't let this business
about the schoolCopy !req
730. make you feel guilty, and...Copy !req
731. This isn't about guilt.Copy !req
732. This is about you being happyCopy !req
733. and me knowing that you're not.Copy !req
734. I made a promise
to stay with youCopy !req
735. and make this work.Copy !req
736. I know.Copy !req
737. But you're a botanist.Copy !req
738. That's what you're
trained to do.Copy !req
739. That's what you love.Copy !req
740. Be a botanist, Keiko.Copy !req
741. Be the best damn botanist
in the galaxy.Copy !req
742. Brother?Copy !req
743. I haven't had
the chance to tell youCopy !req
744. but in the Great HallCopy !req
745. when you stood there
in front of D'GhorCopy !req
746. you were magnificent.Copy !req
747. I was lucky.Copy !req
748. If it didn't workCopy !req
749. I didn't have
another card to play.Copy !req
750. Business is dropping off again.Copy !req
751. Money isn't everything.Copy !req
752. If father were aliveCopy !req
753. he'd wash your mouth
out with galcor.Copy !req
754. You can't buy respect, brotherCopy !req
755. and that's what you
have now... respect.Copy !req
756. After all, that's what you
wanted, isn't it?Copy !req
757. Respect is good,
but latinum's better.Copy !req
758. Tell the story againCopy !req
759. about how you stood there
in front of D'GhorCopy !req
760. not knowing whether you
were going to liveCopy !req
761. to see another day.Copy !req
762. Everyone's tired
of hearing it, Rom.Copy !req
763. It's not going to boost
business anymore.Copy !req
764. No, I mean... tell me.Copy !req
765. I want to hear it again.Copy !req
766. All right, but I'm
taking this timeCopy !req
767. out of your paycheck.Copy !req
768. Well, when I entered
the Great HallCopy !req
769. the first thing I noticed
was that D'GhorCopy !req
770. was about a meter taller
than I remembered...Copy !req
