1. Why don't you tell
your Uncle Quark all about it?
Copy !req
2. What are you
talking about, Quark?
Copy !req
3. You're 15 minutes late
Copy !req
4. for your appointment
in the holosuites
Copy !req
5. and, by the look
of that drink
Copy !req
6. you've been nursing
it for a while.
Copy !req
7. You got stood up, didn't you?
Copy !req
8. Well, if you must know,
I'm waiting for Major Kira.
Copy !req
9. We're supposed to go
antigrav sailing together
Copy !req
10. but you know how she feels
about the holosuites.
Copy !req
11. She feels they're
a complete waste of time.
Copy !req
12. Anything worth doing
in a holosuite
Copy !req
13. can be done better
in the real world.
Copy !req
14. You obviously haven't been
in the right holosuite program.
Copy !req
15. But, if you'd like, I could...
Copy !req
16. You could
Copy !req
17. but you'd live to regret it.
Copy !req
18. Maybe some other time.
Copy !req
19. I'm sorry I'm late.
Copy !req
20. Sisko and I had to revise
crew rotations again.
Copy !req
21. So you're not canceling?
Copy !req
22. No!
Copy !req
23. I'm... kind of looking
forward to it
Copy !req
24. except for crashing.
Copy !req
25. Well, don't worry,
you won't crash.
Copy !req
26. We'll start out
with an easy simulation
Copy !req
27. like... sailing across
the Great Erg on New Mecca.
Copy !req
28. You'll see.
Copy !req
29. It'll be great.
Copy !req
30. Ops to Major Kira.
Copy !req
31. Kira here.
Copy !req
32. You have an incoming
communication
Copy !req
33. from the Bajoran
Central Archives.
Copy !req
34. I'm in the Replimat.
Copy !req
35. I'll take it down here.
Copy !req
36. This will only take a minute.
Copy !req
37. This is Major Kira.
Copy !req
38. Major.
Copy !req
39. My name is Alenis Grem.
Copy !req
40. I'm doing a study on
the Elemspur Detention Center
Copy !req
41. for the Bajoran Central Archives
Copy !req
42. and, um, I was hoping to ask you
a few questions.
Copy !req
43. I'd be glad to help,
but why come to me?
Copy !req
44. I was never at Elemspur.
Copy !req
45. Cardassian records
clearly indicate
Copy !req
46. that a Kira Nerys
was held at Elemspur
Copy !req
47. for, uh... seven days.
Copy !req
48. You've got the wrong Kira Nerys.
Copy !req
49. Believe me.
Copy !req
50. If I'd been held in a
Cardassian prison, I'd remember.
Copy !req
51. I don't understand.
Copy !req
52. I, I have the records
right here.
Copy !req
53. Kira Nerys of Dahkur Province
Copy !req
54. a member of the Shakaar
resistance cell.
Copy !req
55. You see?
Copy !req
56. It's you.
Copy !req
57. If your memory and these
prison records don't agree
Copy !req
58. then one of them
must be wrong...
Copy !req
59. either the records, or...
Copy !req
60. My memory is fine.
Copy !req
61. I know exactly
where I was that week.
Copy !req
62. After ten years?
Copy !req
63. I spent the entire winter
Copy !req
64. with my resistance group
in the Dahkur Hills.
Copy !req
65. We had no power cells for
our phasers, very little food
Copy !req
66. and we spent
most of our time in caves
Copy !req
67. hiding from
the Cardassian sensor sweeps.
Copy !req
68. Believe me,
it was very memorable.
Copy !req
69. These records are fake.
Copy !req
70. The only question is
who faked them and why.
Copy !req
71. According to this,
you supposedly shared a cell
Copy !req
72. with three other inmates.
Copy !req
73. Maybe one of them
can help us find out
Copy !req
74. what's going on here.
Copy !req
75. Elemspur...
Copy !req
76. I haven't thought about
that place for a long time.
Copy !req
77. I was hoping you could answer
some questions
Copy !req
78. about your fellow prisoners.
Copy !req
79. I'll try...
Copy !req
80. Now, wait...
Copy !req
81. I remember you.
Copy !req
82. You were there, too,
weren't you?
Copy !req
83. Kiri something.
Copy !req
84. Kira.
Copy !req
85. Kira Nerys.
Copy !req
86. Yeah, I almost didn't
recognize you.
Copy !req
87. You used to wear your hair
differently, didn't you?
Copy !req
88. Uh... longer?
Copy !req
89. You remember me...
Copy !req
90. after all this time.
Copy !req
91. When the Cardassians
Copy !req
92. dragged you out of our cell,
I gave you up for dead.
Copy !req
93. Glad to see I was wrong.
Copy !req
94. Those were bad times.
Copy !req
95. Yes, they were.
Copy !req
96. He could have been lying.
Copy !req
97. Maybe, but the records
and the only surviving witness
Copy !req
98. both say I was at Elemspur.
Copy !req
99. My memory
says something different.
Copy !req
100. I got to find out the truth.
Copy !req
101. I understand.
Copy !req
102. If there's anything you need...
Copy !req
103. I'll let you know.
Copy !req
104. This shouldn't take long.
Copy !req
105. I should only be
on Bajor a few days.
Copy !req
106. We'll try to manage without you
until you get back.
Copy !req
107. There you are, Garak.
Copy !req
108. Ah.
Copy !req
109. I went past your shop,
but it was closed.
Copy !req
110. Well, unfortunately,
business has been a bit slow.
Copy !req
111. I mean, for some reason
Copy !req
112. living under the constant
threat of Dominion attack
Copy !req
113. has made people less eager
to invest in new clothing.
Copy !req
114. So how was your trip
to Klaestron IV?
Copy !req
115. Oh, terrific.
Copy !req
116. The Klaestrons have developed
a new burn treatment technology
Copy !req
117. which has to be seen
to be believed.
Copy !req
118. You know, I envy you.
Copy !req
119. How so?
Copy !req
120. When I was younger
Copy !req
121. traveling was a bit
of a passion for me.
Copy !req
122. There are few things in life
that compare
Copy !req
123. with the thrill
of immersing yourself
Copy !req
124. in the culture of an alien world
Copy !req
125. meeting the inhabitants,
earning their trust.
Copy !req
126. But, aside from our
brief excursion to Bajor
Copy !req
127. I don't think I've been
off this station
Copy !req
128. in nearly three years.
Copy !req
129. Well, what's stopping you?
Copy !req
130. Ships are leaving Deep Space 9
almost every day.
Copy !req
131. Space is dangerous, Doctor.
Copy !req
132. You never know
what might happen.
Copy !req
133. Garak, you're being paranoid.
Copy !req
134. Are you saying
Copy !req
135. the Cardassian government
would have you killed
Copy !req
136. if you left this station?
Copy !req
137. My dear doctor, you do have
a vivid imagination.
Copy !req
138. Commander, we're receiving
a transmission
Copy !req
139. from Bajoran Central Archives.
Copy !req
140. I'll take it.
Copy !req
141. If you're looking
for Major Kira, I'm afraid
Copy !req
142. she's not on the station
right now.
Copy !req
143. She's on Bajor.
Copy !req
144. I know.
That's why I called.
Copy !req
145. The Major contacted me
before she left.
Copy !req
146. She was supposed to meet with me
so I could show her
Copy !req
147. the information
I'd retrieved from Elemspur.
Copy !req
148. She never came.
Copy !req
149. I tried to contact
the Major to reschedule
Copy !req
150. but she wasn't
where she said she'd be.
Copy !req
151. As far as I can tell,
no one's seen her
Copy !req
152. since she left the spaceport
for Elemspur.
Copy !req
153. Wake her.
Copy !req
154. Where am I?
Copy !req
155. It's all right.
You're safe.
Copy !req
156. What have you done to me?
Copy !req
157. We've brought you back home.
Copy !req
158. To Cardassia.
Copy !req
159. Please...
Copy !req
160. we're here to help you.
Copy !req
161. I don't know who you are
or what you're trying to do
Copy !req
162. but it won't work.
Copy !req
163. Whatever you think this
is going to get you
Copy !req
164. you can forget it.
Copy !req
165. We don't think it's going
to get us anything.
Copy !req
166. If all we wanted was information
Copy !req
167. we'd have it already.
Copy !req
168. Oh, well, then
what's stopping you?
Copy !req
169. We have no intention
of hurting you.
Copy !req
170. Why should we?
You're one of us.
Copy !req
171. This is absurd.
Copy !req
172. You can mutilate me,
change my appearance.
Copy !req
173. You are never going
to convince me
Copy !req
174. that I am a Cardassian.
Copy !req
175. I know this is difficult
for you.
Copy !req
176. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
177. I wish there were a better way
to prepare you
Copy !req
178. for what you're going through.
Copy !req
179. Sometimes I question the wisdom
of our infiltration methods.
Copy !req
180. By altering the memories
of our long-term operatives
Copy !req
181. we ensure that they'll
never be discovered
Copy !req
182. but it makes reintegrating them
back into Cardassian society
Copy !req
183. much more difficult.
Copy !req
184. Still, it's hard to argue
with success.
Copy !req
185. You really expect me
to believe all of this?
Copy !req
186. Oh, of course not.
Copy !req
187. At least, not yet.
Copy !req
188. We've given you medication
to reverse your memory loss
Copy !req
189. but it can take some time
to become effective.
Copy !req
190. Until your original
memory reemerges
Copy !req
191. I don't expect you
to believe a word I say.
Copy !req
192. But it still can be difficult
Copy !req
193. watching someone
you care about suffer.
Copy !req
194. Oh. So I suppose you and I
are old friends.
Copy !req
195. I supervised your training.
Copy !req
196. Ah...
Copy !req
197. You are an undercover operative
Copy !req
198. of the Obsidian Order
named Iliana Ghemor.
Copy !req
199. Ten years ago, you volunteered
Copy !req
200. for an undercover assignment
on Bajor.
Copy !req
201. We kidnapped a Bajoran terrorist
Copy !req
202. gave you her memories,
her appearance
Copy !req
203. and placed you back on Bajor
to infiltrate the resistance.
Copy !req
204. I know.
Copy !req
205. You don't believe me.
Copy !req
206. But you'll remember.
Copy !req
207. It will just take some time.
Copy !req
208. See?
Being here should help.
Copy !req
209. This place?
Copy !req
210. It's just another
Cardassian prison.
Copy !req
211. This is not a prison, Iliana.
Copy !req
212. This is your room in the house
where you were born.
Copy !req
213. Your home.
Copy !req
214. My home is in
the Dahkur Province of Bajor.
Copy !req
215. Here. This contains a personal
statement you recorded
Copy !req
216. before you were sent to Bajor.
Copy !req
217. Watch it.
Copy !req
218. It should help explain things.
Copy !req
219. If you have any questions,
just ask.
Copy !req
220. We've interviewed
all the residents
Copy !req
221. in the vicinity of the
Elemspur Detention Center.
Copy !req
222. One of them
thinks he saw Kira
Copy !req
223. walking up the old Cardassian
road toward the Center.
Copy !req
224. When we scanned the area,
we found a residual
Copy !req
225. electrostatic charge.
Copy !req
226. This could be
a transporter trace.
Copy !req
227. Do you think
she was beamed away?
Copy !req
228. All right, I want to know
the name of every ship
Copy !req
229. that was in the area
at the time of the beam-out.
Copy !req
230. Constable, contact your friends
in the Bajoran militia.
Copy !req
231. Tell them we need to see
the activity logs
Copy !req
232. of all the ground-based
transporters in the area.
Copy !req
233. That'll be all.
Copy !req
234. Benjamin, those residual
electrostatic charges...
Copy !req
235. they could also have been left
by a disrupter or a phaser
Copy !req
236. set to kill.
Copy !req
237. I know.
Copy !req
238. to the children.
Copy !req
239. They are the future
of Cardassia, and they...
Copy !req
240. Enter!
Copy !req
241. Ah. There's someone here
who wants to see you.
Copy !req
242. You took your time about it,
Entek.
Copy !req
243. I don't appreciate being
kept waiting in my own house.
Copy !req
244. As I explained, Legate
Copy !req
245. the initial debriefings
can be difficult.
Copy !req
246. We couldn't allow
any interruptions.
Copy !req
247. Ah!
Copy !req
248. It really is you.
Copy !req
249. Remember
Copy !req
250. her memory hasn't returned yet.
Copy !req
251. I understand.
Copy !req
252. Iliana, I...
Copy !req
253. I wish I could tell you
how much this means to me.
Copy !req
254. Am I supposed to know you?
Copy !req
255. Iliana, this is
Legate Tekeny Ghemor.
Copy !req
256. He's your father.
Copy !req
257. My father?
Copy !req
258. My father died on Bajor
fighting Cardassians.
Copy !req
259. That's not true.
Copy !req
260. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
261. I know you don't remember me
Copy !req
262. but I've been waiting
for this for so long.
Copy !req
263. Please, leave us.
Copy !req
264. Are you sure that's wise?
Copy !req
265. She's my daughter.
Copy !req
266. She's not going to hurt me.
Copy !req
267. As you wish.
Copy !req
268. I've missed you, Iliana.
Copy !req
269. Don't call me that.
Copy !req
270. It's not my name.
Copy !req
271. And I am not your daughter.
Copy !req
272. I should let you rest.
Copy !req
273. You will remember, in time.
Copy !req
274. Until then, please,
consider yourself
Copy !req
275. a guest in this house.
Copy !req
276. Oh, good evening, Doctor.
Copy !req
277. If you're finished here
Copy !req
278. I was wondering if you'd like
to join me for a late snack.
Copy !req
279. Um, actually, all I want
right now is a little sleep.
Copy !req
280. Maybe tomorrow.
Copy !req
281. I'm afraid this can't
wait until tomorrow.
Copy !req
282. I have very important
news about Major Kira.
Copy !req
283. In the left corner,
above the window.
Copy !req
284. What?
Copy !req
285. The Obsidian Order
surveillance devices.
Copy !req
286. That is what you're looking for,
isn't it?
Copy !req
287. Don't worry.
They're not on.
Copy !req
288. I'm a member
of the Central Command.
Copy !req
289. They're only activated
at my request.
Copy !req
290. I thought you might
want some breakfast.
Copy !req
291. I assumed you'd be used
to Bajoran food by now
Copy !req
292. so I took the liberty
of replicating some hasperat.
Copy !req
293. I'm not hungry.
Copy !req
294. You recognize that?
Copy !req
295. It's the bone carving
you made for me
Copy !req
296. when I was promoted to Legate.
Copy !req
297. Your daughter was talented.
Copy !req
298. Yes.
Copy !req
299. She is.
Copy !req
300. I always thought you
should have been an artist...
Copy !req
301. you have such a wonderful
eye for detail...
Copy !req
302. but you were determined
to join the Order.
Copy !req
303. You thought it was your duty
to Cardassia.
Copy !req
304. Personally, I think Cardassia
could use a few more artists.
Copy !req
305. Are you sure you won't try
some hasperat?
Copy !req
306. It's only good when it's warm.
Copy !req
307. No.
Copy !req
308. Thank you.
Copy !req
309. You're as stubborn
as your mother.
Copy !req
310. She could never do anything
the easy way.
Copy !req
311. You don't remember
her, either, do you?
Copy !req
312. My mother was an icon painter
from Dahkur Province.
Copy !req
313. She died of malnutrition
at the Singha refugee camp
Copy !req
314. when I was three.
Copy !req
315. Your mother was an Inquisitor
at the Central University.
Copy !req
316. This is my fault.
Copy !req
317. I never should have let
you go on that mission.
Copy !req
318. I could have prevented it.
Copy !req
319. A well-placed word here,
a favor from a friend there.
Copy !req
320. You never would have known.
Copy !req
321. But... you were
so determined to go
Copy !req
322. so proud
that you'd been chosen
Copy !req
323. that I didn't have
the heart to stop you.
Copy !req
324. Your mother never forgave me.
Copy !req
325. You're good.
Copy !req
326. Really good.
Copy !req
327. The house, the food,
the stories...
Copy !req
328. it's all very convincing.
Copy !req
329. But I don't believe
a word of it.
Copy !req
330. Iliana, I just want you
to know... I'm sorry.
Copy !req
331. Commander, I've already
Copy !req
332. told the good doctor
everything I know.
Copy !req
333. I'd like to hear it
again firsthand.
Copy !req
334. This is pointless.
Copy !req
335. Believe me, there's
nothing you can do.
Copy !req
336. If my friend is correct
Copy !req
337. and Major Kira is being
held by the Obsidian Order
Copy !req
338. retrieving her
would be impossible.
Copy !req
339. Impossible for us maybe,
but not for you.
Copy !req
340. I'm afraid you overestimate
my abilities.
Copy !req
341. I hope not,
because I intend to put
Copy !req
342. your abilities to the test.
Copy !req
343. The three of us
are going to Cardassia.
Copy !req
344. The three of us?
Copy !req
345. You can't be serious.
Copy !req
346. Commander, if I were allowed
on Cardassia
Copy !req
347. do you really think
I'd be living here?
Copy !req
348. Which brings up
an interesting point.
Copy !req
349. There are certain ministers
in the Bajoran government
Copy !req
350. who are concerned
about your presence
Copy !req
351. on this station.
Copy !req
352. In fact,
they want you removed.
Copy !req
353. Right now, I see no alternative
but to honor their request.
Copy !req
354. Unless, of course,
I can show them
Copy !req
355. how you might be valuable to us.
Copy !req
356. Rescuing Kira would
go a long way
Copy !req
357. toward improving your standing
with the Bajoran government.
Copy !req
358. Why should I care what the
Bajoran government thinks of me?
Copy !req
359. I don't know, but it seems to me
Copy !req
360. if someone were in trouble with
the Cardassian Central Command
Copy !req
361. a Bajoran space station
under Federation control
Copy !req
362. might just be the safest place
in the galaxy.
Copy !req
363. Commander, this is extortion.
Copy !req
364. Mmm.
Copy !req
365. Yes, it is.
Copy !req
366. We'll be traveling
under false transit documents
Copy !req
367. prepared by Starfleet
Intelligence.
Copy !req
368. Mr. O'Brien has reconfigured
Copy !req
369. the shield harmonics
of the Defiant
Copy !req
370. so that, on long-range
sensors, we'll appear to be
Copy !req
371. a Kobheerian freighter.
Copy !req
372. We leave in three hours.
Copy !req
373. I'll go along
on your fool's errand
Copy !req
374. but I want one thing
to be perfectly clear:
Copy !req
375. I have no intention
Copy !req
376. of sacrificing my life
to save yours.
Copy !req
377. If it looks like we're
in danger of being captured
Copy !req
378. if there's any sign
of trouble at all
Copy !req
379. you're on your own.
Copy !req
380. Mr. Garak, I believe
Copy !req
381. that's the first
completely honest thing
Copy !req
382. you've ever said to me.
Copy !req
383. How perceptive of you,
Commander.
Copy !req
384. She doesn't remember anything?
Copy !req
385. Not yet.
Copy !req
386. That's unfortunate.
Copy !req
387. It would have made
things easier.
Copy !req
388. I'm afraid I'm going
Copy !req
389. to have to ask you
some questions.
Copy !req
390. So soon?
Copy !req
391. I thought she'd be given time
to regain her memory.
Copy !req
392. She was given time.
Copy !req
393. The desegranine injections
should have worked by now.
Copy !req
394. Memories usually
begin to resurface
Copy !req
395. after only a few hours.
Copy !req
396. It's been two days.
Copy !req
397. And what if the injections
never work?
Copy !req
398. Your daughter has
some information that we need.
Copy !req
399. I'm sure, in time, she'll see
the wisdom of cooperating.
Copy !req
400. So...
Copy !req
401. if you'll excuse us.
Copy !req
402. I'll be in the next room
if you need me.
Copy !req
403. Legate, your concerns
are baseless.
Copy !req
404. She's one of our own people.
Copy !req
405. We have no reason to harm her.
Copy !req
406. And I'll be nearby
to remind you of that...
Copy !req
407. in case you forget.
Copy !req
408. As you wish, Legate.
Copy !req
409. What were your duties as First
Officer of Deep Space 9?
Copy !req
410. I told you, the Federation
runs the station.
Copy !req
411. I wasn't even allowed into Ops.
Copy !req
412. How many Starfleet personnel
are stationed on Deep Space 9?
Copy !req
413. Hmm, 30... 40,000.
Copy !req
414. Don't tell them I told you.
Copy !req
415. That's enough!
Copy !req
416. Iliana...
Copy !req
417. Oh.
Copy !req
418. Don't you understand
what's going on here?
Copy !req
419. I'm trying to give you a chance.
Copy !req
420. Even if you don't
remember who I am
Copy !req
421. you are still
one of my operatives.
Copy !req
422. Now, I don't want to hurt you,
but if you don't cooperate...
Copy !req
423. Maybe there is a way
to convince you
Copy !req
424. to take what I say seriously.
Copy !req
425. This is Entek.
Copy !req
426. Send me exhibit S1983I
immediately.
Copy !req
427. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
428. Nothing you can show me
will make any difference.
Copy !req
429. Did you know
that the Obsidian Order
Copy !req
430. saves everything that comes
into its possession?
Copy !req
431. You never know
what might prove useful.
Copy !req
432. We have libraries
of data transcripts
Copy !req
433. vaults of ancient artifacts,
even...
Copy !req
434. Ah! Here it is.
Copy !req
435. Even cryogenic chambers
containing biological subjects
Copy !req
436. like this one here.
Copy !req
437. That's impossible.
Copy !req
438. I assure you, when it comes
to the Obsidian Order
Copy !req
439. nothing is impossible.
Copy !req
440. It's a fake.
Copy !req
441. A clone, a hologram.
Copy !req
442. For all I know, this whole
place is a holosuite.
Copy !req
443. Do you remember when you were
on long-range reconnaissance
Copy !req
444. in the Bestri Woods?
Copy !req
445. You thought you saw
a Cardassian soldier
Copy !req
446. and opened fire on him.
Copy !req
447. You hit your target,
only to find out...
Copy !req
448. I killed a hara cat.
Copy !req
449. Ah. A mother hara cat
who was nursing her young.
Copy !req
450. How do you know that?
Copy !req
451. I never told anyone that story.
Copy !req
452. I know about it,
because we placed that story
Copy !req
453. in your memories, Iliana
Copy !req
454. just like we gave you
every other memory you have.
Copy !req
455. What we couldn't extract
from the real Kira
Copy !req
456. we got from other prisoners
or just... invented ourselves.
Copy !req
457. Ask yourself two things, Iliana.
Copy !req
458. First, is there anything
that I've said we've done
Copy !req
459. that's beyond the capabilities
of the Obsidian Order?
Copy !req
460. I assume you know there isn't.
Copy !req
461. Second...
Copy !req
462. if you're not my operative
Copy !req
463. if you're not
who I say you are
Copy !req
464. why would I be
playing this game?
Copy !req
465. Believe me...
Copy !req
466. if I wanted to extract
the information from you
Copy !req
467. I'd have it already.
Copy !req
468. I don't want to do that.
Copy !req
469. I care about you.
Copy !req
470. And you were one
of my best students.
Copy !req
471. Watch the recording,
think about what I've said
Copy !req
472. because the Order
won't wait much longer.
Copy !req
473. I see you haven't forgotten
Copy !req
474. all of your Obsidian Order
training.
Copy !req
475. Actually, I learned that
in the resistance.
Copy !req
476. Next time, you might want to
leave a contact wire running
Copy !req
477. between the wall
and the access plate.
Copy !req
478. You tripped the silent alarm
when you separated them.
Copy !req
479. I'll keep that in mind.
Copy !req
480. I suppose if I walk out of here,
you'll try to stop me.
Copy !req
481. I don't have to.
Copy !req
482. You wouldn't get
half a kilometer
Copy !req
483. without being detected
by the Obsidian Order.
Copy !req
484. Maybe I'm willing
to take that chance.
Copy !req
485. Iliana...
Copy !req
486. Stop calling me that.
Copy !req
487. I am not your daughter,
and I never was.
Copy !req
488. I'm leaving.
Copy !req
489. You'll never get off Cardassia.
Copy !req
490. In the end, you'll only make
things worse for yourself.
Copy !req
491. I can only do so much
to help you.
Copy !req
492. If you want to help me,
get me off this planet.
Copy !req
493. I will never cooperate
with the Order.
Copy !req
494. Eventually, they're going
to realize that.
Copy !req
495. They will interrogate me,
and I won't survive.
Copy !req
496. I promise you
that will never happen.
Copy !req
497. I'll never allow the Order
to harm you.
Copy !req
498. No matter what you decide,
I won't let them hurt you.
Copy !req
499. I only ask one thing.
Copy !req
500. Before you make your decision,
I beg you
Copy !req
501. watch the recording
Entek gave you.
Copy !req
502. It's the only way you'll
ever really know the truth.
Copy !req
503. Begin playback.
Copy !req
504. Hello, Iliana.
Copy !req
505. Welcome home.
Copy !req
506. I've been asked to make these
recordings for myself, for you
Copy !req
507. to help my memory recover
when I get back.
Copy !req
508. I go in for surgery tomorrow.
Copy !req
509. I'm going to miss Cardassia
Copy !req
510. but I know
what I'm doing is right.
Copy !req
511. The terrorism on Bajor
has to be stopped.
Copy !req
512. Father doesn't want me to go.
Copy !req
513. Mother... just looks unhappy
all the time.
Copy !req
514. I hope someday they understand.
Copy !req
515. I want them to be proud of me.
Copy !req
516. How are the modifications
Copy !req
517. to the shield harmonics
holding up?
Copy !req
518. So far, so good.
Copy !req
519. Nobody here but us Kobheerians.
Copy !req
520. We're well into Cardassian space
Copy !req
521. so keep a close eye
on that shield modulator.
Copy !req
522. If it breaks down, we could be
in for some unwelcome company.
Copy !req
523. Commander, I just caught Garak
Copy !req
524. snooping around
the access corridor
Copy !req
525. outside the main phaser banks.
Copy !req
526. I was merely taking a stroll
to stretch my legs.
Copy !req
527. The quarters on this "vessel"
are rather claustrophobic.
Copy !req
528. Confine him to his cabin
for the rest of the trip
Copy !req
529. and post a guard at the door.
Copy !req
530. Commander, I must protest.
Copy !req
531. You can protest all you like...
Copy !req
532. Benjamin, I'm detecting
two Galor-class warships
Copy !req
533. headed this way.
Copy !req
534. What about the shield harmonics?
Copy !req
535. Still holding.
Copy !req
536. As far as their scanners
are concerned
Copy !req
537. we should still look like
a Kobheerian freighter.
Copy !req
538. It's probably just
a routine security check.
Copy !req
539. They're hailing us.
Copy !req
540. Drop out of warp.
Copy !req
541. I don't want
to get too close to them.
Copy !req
542. Is the communications
holo-filter ready?
Copy !req
543. I can make your com image
Copy !req
544. look like 3,000-ton
screech rhino
Copy !req
545. if you want me to.
Copy !req
546. A Kobheerian captain
will do nicely, Lieutenant.
Copy !req
547. Engage the overlay.
Copy !req
548. Put them on screen.
Copy !req
549. This is Gul Benil
of the Eighth Order.
Copy !req
550. Identify yourself.
Copy !req
551. This is the Kobheerian
Freighter Rak-Minunis.
Copy !req
552. I'm Captain Viterian.
How can I help you?
Copy !req
553. What is your destination?
Copy !req
554. Cardassia Prime.
Copy !req
555. We're carrying a shipment
of Kobheerian toranium
Copy !req
556. intended for military use.
Copy !req
557. Prepare to be boarded.
Copy !req
558. They're headed toward us.
Copy !req
559. If they get any closer
Copy !req
560. they might be able
to identify us.
Copy !req
561. Gul Benil, our toranium
is urgently needed on Cardassia.
Copy !req
562. I would hate for you
to have to explain
Copy !req
563. why it was delayed.
Copy !req
564. The toranium can wait.
Copy !req
565. Maquis activity is on the rise
in this sector.
Copy !req
566. By order of the Central Command
Copy !req
567. all incoming ships are
to be stopped and searched.
Copy !req
568. Drop the holo-filter.
Copy !req
569. Do it.
Copy !req
570. I can get us out of this
if you let me talk to them.
Copy !req
571. Please stand by.
Copy !req
572. Are we within
their weapons range yet?
Copy !req
573. No.
Copy !req
574. Do as he says
Copy !req
575. but be prepared
to get out of here fast
Copy !req
576. if it doesn't work.
Copy !req
577. Gul Benil.
Copy !req
578. You're not Kobheerians.
Copy !req
579. Very observant of you.
Copy !req
580. Now turn your ships around.
Copy !req
581. Excuse me?
Copy !req
582. This is an Alpha Red
Priority Mission
Copy !req
583. clearance verification:
9218-black.
Copy !req
584. By authority
of the Central Command
Copy !req
585. you are ordered
to turn your ships around
Copy !req
586. erase all records of this
encounter from your logs
Copy !req
587. and talk of it to no one.
Copy !req
588. Is that clear?
Copy !req
589. Clearance code verified.
Copy !req
590. My apologies.
Copy !req
591. I had no idea.
Copy !req
592. You were doing your duty.
Copy !req
593. End transmission.
Copy !req
594. Mr. Garak, I'm impressed.
Copy !req
595. Ah, it was just
something I overheard
Copy !req
596. while I was hemming
someone's trousers.
Copy !req
597. I suggest that we
get away from here
Copy !req
598. as quickly as possible,
in case Gul Benil
Copy !req
599. should decide to show
some initiative.
Copy !req
600. All right, one more time,
Iliana.
Copy !req
601. What are the names
of the Starfleet ships
Copy !req
602. deployed
along the Demilitarized Zone?
Copy !req
603. I don't know.
Copy !req
604. That's not acceptable.
Copy !req
605. As a Bajoran liaison officer,
it's your duty
Copy !req
606. to help coordinate
Federation activity
Copy !req
607. near Bajoran space.
Copy !req
608. Now...
Copy !req
609. what are the names of the ships
Copy !req
610. deployed along
the Demilitarized Zone?
Copy !req
611. Their names, Iliana,
give me their names!
Copy !req
612. I think you've asked enough
questions for today.
Copy !req
613. Legate, you can't come in here!
Copy !req
614. You presume to tell
a member of the Central Command
Copy !req
615. where he may or may not go
in his own home?
Copy !req
616. This is Obsidian Order business.
Copy !req
617. Our autonomy...
Copy !req
618. Is a privilege granted
by the Central Command
Copy !req
619. and is revocable at any time.
Copy !req
620. Don't you agree?
Copy !req
621. Of course, Legate.
Copy !req
622. Iliana, I'm afraid
the next time we talk
Copy !req
623. it will have to be
at the Order's facilities.
Copy !req
624. Good day.
Copy !req
625. Iliana, are you all right?
Copy !req
626. Iliana...
Copy !req
627. No...
Copy !req
628. No!
Copy !req
629. Iliana...
Copy !req
630. No...
Copy !req
631. It's all right.
Copy !req
632. Everything will be all right.
Copy !req
633. I'm a selfish old man.
Copy !req
634. I can't keep you here anymore,
no matter how much I want to.
Copy !req
635. Entek will never rest
until he's broken you.
Copy !req
636. If he takes you
to Order Headquarters...
Copy !req
637. We must get you away
from Cardassia.
Copy !req
638. You'd do that for me?
Copy !req
639. Why?
Copy !req
640. You're my daughter, Iliana.
Copy !req
641. There's nothing
I wouldn't do for you.
Copy !req
642. Even...
Copy !req
643. even if it means
losing you again.
Copy !req
644. Iliana...
Copy !req
645. here.
Copy !req
646. For you.
Copy !req
647. It's beautiful.
Copy !req
648. It was your mother's.
Copy !req
649. I want you to have it...
to remember her by.
Copy !req
650. I can't take this.
Copy !req
651. There's no use arguing.
Copy !req
652. I can be
as stubborn as you.
Copy !req
653. It runs in the family.
Copy !req
654. Legate.
Copy !req
655. Iliana, this is Ari.
He's a friend.
Copy !req
656. He's going to help
get you off Cardassia.
Copy !req
657. Without the Order's knowledge?
Copy !req
658. How is that possible?
Copy !req
659. I have friends
who can arrange things.
Copy !req
660. Friends who think
the same way I do.
Copy !req
661. The Obsidian Order
and the Central Command
Copy !req
662. have been given too much power
over our lives.
Copy !req
663. We're going to change that.
Copy !req
664. You're a dissident?
Copy !req
665. Your father is a great man.
Copy !req
666. He has everything
any Cardassian could want
Copy !req
667. yet he's willing to risk
his life for what he believes.
Copy !req
668. People like Ari are the heroes.
Copy !req
669. My position protects me.
Copy !req
670. The real risk is theirs.
Copy !req
671. Legate, I have to get
your daughter
Copy !req
672. to our next contact.
Copy !req
673. Good-bye
Copy !req
674. Iliana.
Copy !req
675. I love you.
Copy !req
676. Legate...
Copy !req
677. Sir, we have to go
Copy !req
678. - now.
- Wait.
Copy !req
679. This is wrong.
Copy !req
680. Please, Ari's right.
Copy !req
681. No, don't you see?
Copy !req
682. The fact that you're a dissident
Copy !req
683. that you're willing
to help me...
Copy !req
684. No, that can't be a coincidence.
Copy !req
685. Iliana, you have to trust me.
Copy !req
686. We're trying to help you.
Copy !req
687. No, no, it's Entek
I don't trust.
Copy !req
688. Why did he go
to so much trouble?
Copy !req
689. Changing me into a Cardassian,
sending me to you...
Copy !req
690. It's not me he's after.
Copy !req
691. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
692. What if the Order suspects your
involvement with the dissidents?
Copy !req
693. Impossible.
Copy !req
694. I'm too well-protected.
Copy !req
695. They couldn't have evidence
of my activities.
Copy !req
696. But they could still
suspect you.
Copy !req
697. And without any evidence
Copy !req
698. they wouldn't dare
interrogate you.
Copy !req
699. Would they?
Copy !req
700. Central Command
would never allow it.
Copy !req
701. Which is why they had
to make you betray yourself
Copy !req
702. which is why they kidnapped me
Copy !req
703. because I resemble
your daughter.
Copy !req
704. And they knew you would
Copy !req
705. never stand by
and watch me be tortured.
Copy !req
706. They wanted you to do this.
Copy !req
707. They wanted you
Copy !req
708. to try and rescue me.
Copy !req
709. Very astute, Major.
Copy !req
710. You couldn't have done any
better if you were one of us.
Copy !req
711. This is Ghemor.
Copy !req
712. Three to beam out.
Now.
Copy !req
713. It won't work.
Copy !req
714. We've got a transporter
suppression field
Copy !req
715. - over this whole area.
- No!
Copy !req
716. You don't know how long
I've waited for this day.
Copy !req
717. Imagine... in one bold stroke
Copy !req
718. the Obsidian Order will unmask
a traitor in the Central Command
Copy !req
719. and shatter the entire
dissident movement
Copy !req
720. and we have you
to thank for it.
Copy !req
721. The movement will survive
without me.
Copy !req
722. You underestimate
your importance, Legate.
Copy !req
723. With your help, we'll be able
Copy !req
724. to purge the government
of all disloyalty.
Copy !req
725. The enemies of Cardassia
will be destroyed.
Copy !req
726. The enemies of the Order,
you mean.
Copy !req
727. The Obsidian Order is Cardassia.
Copy !req
728. What are you doing?
Copy !req
729. I think you know.
Copy !req
730. Major.
Copy !req
731. Your testimony would make
for a more dramatic trial
Copy !req
732. but I'd be willing
to dispense with it
Copy !req
733. if you give us any trouble.
Copy !req
734. The Major is the least
of your problems, Entek.
Copy !req
735. I suggest you lower
your weapons.
Copy !req
736. Do as he says.
Copy !req
737. Now, Entek!
Copy !req
738. I'll take that.
Copy !req
739. Thank you.
Copy !req
740. Get over with him!
Copy !req
741. Garak,
what are you doing here?
Copy !req
742. I got homesick.
Copy !req
743. I think we better be going.
Copy !req
744. Don't worry.
Copy !req
745. He's on our side...
I think.
Copy !req
746. Come on.
Copy !req
747. Major, I don't think
Copy !req
748. I've ever seen you
looking so ravishing.
Copy !req
749. Are you all right?
Copy !req
750. I'm fine.
How did you...
Copy !req
751. Suffice it to say, I still
have friends on Cardassia.
Copy !req
752. You will, no doubt, derive
years of enjoyment
Copy !req
753. trying to determine
exactly who they are.
Copy !req
754. Legate, we have a ship waiting.
Copy !req
755. From the sound of things
Copy !req
756. I think you better
come with us.
Copy !req
757. Yes, I think that might be wise.
Copy !req
758. Garak, I don't understand.
Copy !req
759. Why are you helping
these people?
Copy !req
760. Ghemor is a traitor,
an enemy of the Order.
Copy !req
761. Treason, like beauty,
is in the eye of the beholder.
Copy !req
762. You're making a serious mistake.
Copy !req
763. Up until now,
the Order was satisfied
Copy !req
764. to let you live
in exile, but now...
Copy !req
765. Come on!
Copy !req
766. Odo, Garak, let's go!
Copy !req
767. I'd almost forgotten
what a pleasure it was
Copy !req
768. to be with my fellow
Cardassians.
Copy !req
769. And though I'd like to stay
and listen to you bluster
Copy !req
770. I simply don't have the time.
Copy !req
771. A pity.
Copy !req
772. I rather liked him.
Copy !req
773. So, it was all a lie.
Copy !req
774. According to Dr. Bashir
Copy !req
775. my genetic structure
is entirely Bajoran.
Copy !req
776. The alterations were surgical.
Copy !req
777. What about the man
Copy !req
778. who said he was
with you at Elemspur?
Copy !req
779. Gone... completely disappeared.
Copy !req
780. We suspect he was
a Cardassian agent.
Copy !req
781. He's probably the one
Copy !req
782. who changed
the Detention Center records
Copy !req
783. in the first place.
Copy !req
784. I thought you'd be happy.
Copy !req
785. I am. It's...
Copy !req
786. I still don't understand.
Copy !req
787. If Iliana really was
transformed into a Bajoran
Copy !req
788. then why did Entek
have me kidnapped?
Copy !req
789. Why not bring Iliana
back instead?
Copy !req
790. Because the desegranine
would have worked on Iliana.
Copy !req
791. Her memories would have returned
Copy !req
792. and she would have
cooperated with Entek.
Copy !req
793. But they knew that you'd resist
and that I'd be forced
Copy !req
794. to try to get you
off of Cardassia.
Copy !req
795. Do you think Iliana's
still alive?
Copy !req
796. I have to.
Copy !req
797. I'm her father.
Copy !req
798. For all I know,
she's still on Bajor
Copy !req
799. and someday, I'll find her.
Copy !req
800. Are you sure you don't want
to stay on the station?
Copy !req
801. There's no place for me here.
Copy !req
802. The Mathenite government
Copy !req
803. has offered me
political sanctuary.
Copy !req
804. I'll be safe there.
Copy !req
805. One more thing before I leave.
Copy !req
806. Can I give you
some fatherly advice?
Copy !req
807. For old times' sake.
Copy !req
808. Of course.
Copy !req
809. That Garak fellow who helped
you, who helped us
Copy !req
810. don't trust him, Nerys, ever.
Copy !req
811. He's a dangerous man
Copy !req
812. and he'd betray you and all
of your friends in an instant
Copy !req
813. if he thought
it would help him.
Copy !req
814. I'll keep my eye on him.
Copy !req
815. I suppose it's time to go.
Copy !req
816. Here.
Copy !req
817. It doesn't belong to me.
Copy !req
818. I can't keep it.
Copy !req
819. No.
Copy !req
820. I want you to have it.
Copy !req
821. You may not be my daughter,
but, until I find Iliana
Copy !req
822. you're the closest thing
I have to family.
Copy !req
823. I want you to know something.
Copy !req
824. In spite of...
Copy !req
825. whatever I might have said
Copy !req
826. I realize now...
Copy !req
827. you're an honorable man.
Copy !req
828. And I think your daughter
must have loved you very much.
