1. How's it going, Jake?
Copy !req
2. Fine. I've deleted
Copy !req
3. half the Cardassian files
from the computer.
Copy !req
4. I can't believe how many
subroutines it took
Copy !req
5. just to run this ore processor.
Copy !req
6. Well, it used to be
a pretty large operation.
Copy !req
7. When the Cardassians
were in charge
Copy !req
8. I understand they processed
20,000 tons a day.
Copy !req
9. That's a lot of ore.
Copy !req
10. It must've been hell in here.
Copy !req
11. I heard stories
Copy !req
12. the temperature
reached 55 degrees Celsius.
Copy !req
13. How could the Bajoran
workers survive that?
Copy !req
14. Oh, a lot of them didn't.
Copy !req
15. When you've deleted
all those files
Copy !req
16. I'll show you how to download
the new operating system.
Copy !req
17. You really think
we can convert this place
Copy !req
18. into a deuterium refinery?
Copy !req
19. Absolutely.
Copy !req
20. It'll take us three...
Copy !req
21. maybe four weeks at most.
Copy !req
22. I hope you're planning on eating
Copy !req
23. during the next
three or four weeks.
Copy !req
24. Commander, I guess I lost track
of the time.
Copy !req
25. We're almost finished, Dad.
Copy !req
26. Chief, I'm having a problem
deleting one of these files.
Copy !req
27. Have you tried reformatting
the data cluster?
Copy !req
28. Yeah, but the file's still here.
Copy !req
29. Here, let me see.
Copy !req
30. Well, that's odd.
Copy !req
31. What's that, Chief?
Copy !req
32. Well, the file has no name,
no indication what it is.
Copy !req
33. I better set it aside for now.
Copy !req
34. I can transfer it
to the central database in Ops
Copy !req
35. and analyze it in the morning.
Copy !req
36. Wait a minute.
Copy !req
37. Unauthorized computer entry
Copy !req
38. detected
in Ore Processing Unit 5.
Copy !req
39. Enter access code.
Copy !req
40. Incorrect code.
Copy !req
41. You have five seconds
to enter correct access code.
Copy !req
42. Or what?
Copy !req
43. I don't know,
but I better stop it.
Copy !req
44. Warning.
Copy !req
45. Worker revolt in progress
in Ore Processing Unit 5.
Copy !req
46. Security countermeasures
initiated.
Copy !req
47. What the hell?
Copy !req
48. Bajoran workers,
your attention, please.
Copy !req
49. Your attempt to seize
control of this facility
Copy !req
50. is going to fail.
Copy !req
51. You are valuable workers,
and we wish you no harm.
Copy !req
52. However, if you do not
return control of this unit
Copy !req
53. to your Cardassian supervisors
Copy !req
54. we will be forced
to take action.
Copy !req
55. You have eight minutes
to make your decision.
Copy !req
56. The computer's engaged
the magnetic seal.
Copy !req
57. I can't override it.
Copy !req
58. Ops to Sisko.
Copy !req
59. Go ahead.
Copy !req
60. Commander, what is
going on down there?
Copy !req
61. We just got a recorded message
from Gul Dukat
Copy !req
62. regarding some worker revolt
in the ore processing facility?
Copy !req
63. We saw the same message.
Copy !req
64. It seems we've tripped
Copy !req
65. some kind of automated security
program the Cardassians left.
Copy !req
66. We're locked in.
Copy !req
67. Oh, we'll beam you out of there.
Copy !req
68. Enter access code.
Copy !req
69. What?
Copy !req
70. If this security program
thinks there's been
Copy !req
71. some kind of worker's revolt,
then it must think
Copy !req
72. this station is still
under Cardassian rule.
Copy !req
73. So it's probably waiting for us
to enter an emergency code.
Copy !req
74. One that the Cardassians
never bothered to give us
Copy !req
75. when they left.
Copy !req
76. Odo to Ops.
Copy !req
77. Kira here.
Copy !req
78. My Cardassian access codes
are still valid.
Copy !req
79. I'm attempting to override
the security program
Copy !req
80. but it's going
to take some time.
Copy !req
81. I'm not sure my clearance level
is high enough.
Copy !req
82. Well, keep at it.
Copy !req
83. We'll try to do the same thing
from up here.
Copy !req
84. Acknowledged.
Copy !req
85. Odo, do you mind telling me
what this is all about?
Copy !req
86. That message from Dukat
is making my customers nervous.
Copy !req
87. And when they're nervous,
they're not...
Copy !req
88. Not now, Quark.
Copy !req
89. I'm busy.
Copy !req
90. Well, is there anything
I can do to help?
Copy !req
91. Not unless you have
Copy !req
92. a level 9 Cardassian
security clearance.
Copy !req
93. Let's see.
Copy !req
94. I think I have everything
from levels 1 through 7.
Copy !req
95. I only have levels 1 through 6.
Copy !req
96. Well.
If you'd like a level 7
Copy !req
97. I'm sure we can make
some kind of arrangement.
Copy !req
98. Leave me alone, Quark.
Copy !req
99. Oh, no.
Copy !req
100. There's something
very wrong going on
Copy !req
101. and this is the safest place
in the whole station.
Copy !req
102. I think I'll stay right here.
Copy !req
103. Any luck?
Copy !req
104. Nothing.
Copy !req
105. It's probably magnetically
sealed, like the door.
Copy !req
106. We'd need a phaser
to blast it open.
Copy !req
107. Well, there's no way
Copy !req
108. I can disable
the program from here.
Copy !req
109. Bajoran workers
Copy !req
110. your time is running out,
but it's not too late.
Copy !req
111. You can still surrender
and save your lives.
Copy !req
112. Computer, this is the leader
of the Bajoran workers.
Copy !req
113. We surrender.
Copy !req
114. I'm glad to see
you've come to your senses.
Copy !req
115. Stay where you are.
Copy !req
116. When Cardassian Security arrives
Copy !req
117. they will place you into custody
Copy !req
118. but you will not be harmed.
Copy !req
119. You have my word.
Copy !req
120. For whatever that's worth.
Copy !req
121. Now what?
Copy !req
122. Well, it sounds like
Copy !req
123. the program is going to wait
for Cardassian security
Copy !req
124. to enter the all-clear protocol.
Copy !req
125. That'll give us
a few minutes anyway.
Copy !req
126. What's in here?
Copy !req
127. Nothing at the moment.
Copy !req
128. Processed uridium used
to pour down that pipe
Copy !req
129. to a secondary refining facility
in Level 33 and be purified.
Copy !req
130. It's not locked.
Copy !req
131. Since that pipe was filled
with molten uridium
Copy !req
132. there wasn't any need
for security measures.
Copy !req
133. Well, it's too narrow
for anyone to escape through.
Copy !req
134. I can get in there.
Copy !req
135. Chief, if he can crawl
up this pipe into the machine
Copy !req
136. can he get to the ore shoot
and open that hatch from inside?
Copy !req
137. Bajoran workers,
you have not surrendered
Copy !req
138. to Cardassian security.
Copy !req
139. If you do not do so
in the next three minutes
Copy !req
140. I will be forced
to release neurocine gas
Copy !req
141. into the ore processing
facility.
Copy !req
142. I can do it.
Copy !req
143. Bajoran workers
Copy !req
144. you have two minutes left
to give yourselves up
Copy !req
145. to your Cardassian overseers
and save your lives.
Copy !req
146. Can you hear me, Jake?
Copy !req
147. Loud and clear,
but I can't see a thing.
Copy !req
148. There should be a large circular
opening to your right.
Copy !req
149. Okay, let me see
if I can find it.
Copy !req
150. Even if you were
to escape this station...
Copy !req
151. Ow!
Copy !req
152. Jake-o, you all right?
Copy !req
153. Yeah, I just banged
my head on something.
Copy !req
154. back to Bajor?
Copy !req
155. Wait a second.
Copy !req
156. There's a junction here.
Copy !req
157. It feels like it goes
off in two directions.
Copy !req
158. Which way do I go?
Copy !req
159. Follow this sound, Jake.
Copy !req
160. Do it again, Dad.
Copy !req
161. Got it.
Copy !req
162. I'm in the chute.
Copy !req
163. There should be
a small access port
Copy !req
164. on one of the walls.
Copy !req
165. Found it.
Copy !req
166. Open the hatch
and feel around inside
Copy !req
167. for a handle.
Copy !req
168. It should be shaped
like a stirrup.
Copy !req
169. You know, I never knew
Copy !req
170. how much this man's voice
annoyed me.
Copy !req
171. I can reach it,
but I can't get ahold of it.
Copy !req
172. You have to pull
the handle down, Jake.
Copy !req
173. It's the release for the hatch.
Copy !req
174. I'm trying!
I can't...
Copy !req
175. Don't, don't tense up.
Copy !req
176. Relax.
Copy !req
177. Now just take a deep breath
and try again.
Copy !req
178. I'm sorry,
but your time has run out.
Copy !req
179. I was hoping
you would be reasonable.
Copy !req
180. Rest assured that your deaths
will serve as an example
Copy !req
181. to prevent similar
incidents in the future.
Copy !req
182. I got it!
Copy !req
183. Dax!
Copy !req
184. Maybe if we bypass
the primary command pathway
Copy !req
185. and cross-connect
the backup with the ODN.
Copy !req
186. Warning. Workers have escaped
from Ore Processing Unit 5.
Copy !req
187. Initiating station-wide
counterinsurgency program.
Copy !req
188. Now what?
Copy !req
189. Attention, Bajoran workers.
Copy !req
190. I will not allow
this rebellion to succeed.
Copy !req
191. If you do not
surrender immediately
Copy !req
192. I will be forced to kill
every Bajoran on this station.
Copy !req
193. Wait a second.
I found something.
Copy !req
194. What is it?
Copy !req
195. I don't know.
Some kind of room.
Copy !req
196. It sure is dirty.
Copy !req
197. Doesn't smell too good either.
Copy !req
198. Looks like some kind
of loading bay.
Copy !req
199. You're right.
Copy !req
200. This is where the uridium ore
was separated from the rock.
Copy !req
201. Then it would be
dumped down that chute
Copy !req
202. to the processing facility.
Copy !req
203. Locked.
Copy !req
204. Chief, is there
another way out of here?
Copy !req
205. Just back down that chute.
Copy !req
206. You know where that leads to.
Copy !req
207. Sisko to Ops.
Copy !req
208. Sisko to Security.
Copy !req
209. Try yours.
Copy !req
210. O'Brien to Ops.
Copy !req
211. Jake Sisko to anyone
who can hear me.
Copy !req
212. Something must be interfering
with the signal.
Copy !req
213. What do we do now?
Copy !req
214. It's no good.
Copy !req
215. We're completely cut off
from the rest of the station.
Copy !req
216. There must be some kind
Copy !req
217. of general dampening field
in place.
Copy !req
218. It must be disrupting
communications.
Copy !req
219. All right.
Copy !req
220. It's time
for a less subtle approach.
Copy !req
221. Doctor.
Copy !req
222. Ah, the Cardassians
don't miss a trick, do they?
Copy !req
223. The ironic thing is
Copy !req
224. that field is probably there
to protect Ops
Copy !req
225. from the hordes
of rebelling Bajorans.
Copy !req
226. Well, we've got to find a way
Copy !req
227. of disabling
the security program
Copy !req
228. or a lot of people
are going to get killed.
Copy !req
229. If we can regain
control of the main computer
Copy !req
230. we may be able to wipe
the security program
Copy !req
231. from its memory.
Copy !req
232. Now, if I can reroute
the APT relay
Copy !req
233. through the secondary buffer
Copy !req
234. I might get an independent
terminal working.
Copy !req
235. You know, I've been here
nearly three years
Copy !req
236. and I was just finally
starting to think
Copy !req
237. of this place as home.
Copy !req
238. Your "home" was built
by Cardassians, Doctor.
Copy !req
239. Don't ever forget that.
Copy !req
240. Well, there's not much chance
of that, is there?
Copy !req
241. What do you mean, we're trapped?
Copy !req
242. I mean, we're trapped.
Copy !req
243. I wouldn't be surprised
Copy !req
244. if the entire station
is locked down.
Copy !req
245. But you're a shape-shifter.
Copy !req
246. Excuse me, a changeling.
Copy !req
247. So change into something
and get us out of here.
Copy !req
248. This force field isn't
just protecting the door.
Copy !req
249. It goes through the bulkheads,
the ceiling, the deck.
Copy !req
250. There's nowhere for me to go.
Copy !req
251. You're telling me
I'm stuck here...
Copy !req
252. with you?
Copy !req
253. No...
Copy !req
254. I'm stuck here with you.
Copy !req
255. Believe me, a far worse fate.
Copy !req
256. And stay away from my computer!
Copy !req
257. Again!
Copy !req
258. Oh, okay. Hold on.
Copy !req
259. Anything?
Copy !req
260. Not even a dent.
Copy !req
261. There has to be something
else we can do.
Copy !req
262. What about all this ore?
Copy !req
263. As I understand it,
uridium is very unstable.
Copy !req
264. That's true.
Copy !req
265. But in its raw form
Copy !req
266. you need a strong electrical
charge to detonate it.
Copy !req
267. Can we use that?
Copy !req
268. Well, if I had some tools,
I might be able to get in there
Copy !req
269. and yank out
some electrical cable.
Copy !req
270. Tools.
Copy !req
271. How's it coming?
Copy !req
272. Almost done.
Copy !req
273. Jadzia!
Copy !req
274. Get me a medkit.
Copy !req
275. Easy, Jadzia.
Copy !req
276. I have to take a look.
Copy !req
277. I was reaching toward
the ODN conduit
Copy !req
278. and a small force field went off
and it caught my hands.
Copy !req
279. Well, they're
second degree burns
Copy !req
280. but I don't think
there's any neural damage.
Copy !req
281. This should relieve the pain.
Copy !req
282. Warning. Security
in the Operations Center
Copy !req
283. has been compromised.
Copy !req
284. Initiating counterinsurgency
program level two.
Copy !req
285. Attention, Bajoran workers.
Copy !req
286. Your failure to surrender
Copy !req
287. is forcing me
to take stronger measures.
Copy !req
288. In five minutes, we will
begin pumping neurocine gas
Copy !req
289. into the Habitat Ring.
Copy !req
290. Think of your families
Copy !req
291. as you consider
your course of action.
Copy !req
292. All Cardassian personnel should
evacuate the area immediately.
Copy !req
293. Habitat Ring.
Copy !req
294. There have to be
hundreds of people
Copy !req
295. trapped in their quarters
out there.
Copy !req
296. I believe that's the point,
Major.
Copy !req
297. Computer,
access code: Garak 1359.
Copy !req
298. Ironic, isn't it?
Copy !req
299. The only place
Copy !req
300. in the galaxy that still
recognizes my access code
Copy !req
301. is a Bajoran space station.
Copy !req
302. If you can get past
the force fields
Copy !req
303. you've got to get out
to the Habitat Ring
Copy !req
304. and start evacuating
those people before...
Copy !req
305. I'd like nothing better
than to help my loyal customers
Copy !req
306. but it's not that simple.
Copy !req
307. My access code enables me
to move about the station
Copy !req
308. but, unfortunately,
as you've just seen
Copy !req
309. the force fields reappear
Copy !req
310. the moment I pass
through a doorway.
Copy !req
311. Have you tried using your code
Copy !req
312. to shut down
the security program?
Copy !req
313. Several times
Copy !req
314. but for some reason
I can't begin to fathom
Copy !req
315. Gul Dukat chose not to trust me
Copy !req
316. with his top-level security
codes during the occupation.
Copy !req
317. Garak, do you know a way
we can stop this neurocine gas?
Copy !req
318. The only way to do that
Copy !req
319. is to destroy
the life support system.
Copy !req
320. What are you
trying to do, Garak?
Copy !req
321. Get us all killed?
Copy !req
322. No, wait a minute.
He's right.
Copy !req
323. The neurocine gas is released
Copy !req
324. through
the life support systems.
Copy !req
325. Destroy it and we save everybody
in the Habitat Ring.
Copy !req
326. For 12 hours
Copy !req
327. and then everyone on the station
Copy !req
328. will suffocate when
we run out of oxygen.
Copy !req
329. Well, that gives us 12 hours
Copy !req
330. to regain control
of this station.
Copy !req
331. Believe me, Major
Copy !req
332. it's the only way
to save those people.
Copy !req
333. I believe life support is
controlled from over there.
Copy !req
334. Get down.
Copy !req
335. Warning. Counterinsurgency
program level two
Copy !req
336. has been interrupted.
Copy !req
337. Initiating counterinsurgency
program level three.
Copy !req
338. My fellow Cardassians
Copy !req
339. I regret to inform you
that Bajoran workers
Copy !req
340. have gained control
of this station.
Copy !req
341. In all likelihood, I am dead
or otherwise incapacitated.
Copy !req
342. But rest assured
Copy !req
343. this station will not be allowed
to remain in Bajoran hands.
Copy !req
344. However, it is
my duty to inform you
Copy !req
345. that if you do not regain
control within two hours
Copy !req
346. the station will be destroyed.
Copy !req
347. Self-destruct sequence
initiated.
Copy !req
348. Come on.
Copy !req
349. Come on!
Copy !req
350. Give me that before
you hurt yourself.
Copy !req
351. I've checked
the entire security complex.
Copy !req
352. There's no way out.
Copy !req
353. I should've listened
to my father.
Copy !req
354. He always warned me
this was going to happen.
Copy !req
355. What? That you'd spend
your final hours in jail?
Copy !req
356. I could've told you that.
Copy !req
357. No.
Copy !req
358. He warned me
never to leave home.
Copy !req
359. He said there were plenty
of business opportunities
Copy !req
360. right outside my door.
Copy !req
361. But, no, I had to follow
the 75th Rule of Acquisition:
Copy !req
362. "Home is where the heart is, but
the stars are made of latinum."
Copy !req
363. A lifetime of scheming
and plotting
Copy !req
364. wheeling and dealing
Copy !req
365. and what has it got me?
Copy !req
366. One measly little bar.
Copy !req
367. My Uncle Frin owns 30.
Copy !req
368. And my Cousin Gaila...
Copy !req
369. I know... he owns a moon.
Copy !req
370. I told you that?
Copy !req
371. Many times.
Copy !req
372. It's a small moon,
but it's enough to live on.
Copy !req
373. Oh, come on, Quark.
Copy !req
374. You've done
all right for yourself.
Copy !req
375. Oh, what do you know?
Copy !req
376. Quark, I've met
a lot of Ferengis in my time
Copy !req
377. and the truth is
Copy !req
378. though some of them
may have been more wealthy
Copy !req
379. I've never met one more devious.
Copy !req
380. Really?
Copy !req
381. Would I lie?
Copy !req
382. I guess not.
Copy !req
383. Thank you, Odo.
Copy !req
384. That means a lot to me.
Copy !req
385. Now...
Copy !req
386. can I have the phaser back?
Copy !req
387. No.
Copy !req
388. How do your hands feel?
Copy !req
389. A little better.
Copy !req
390. Good. I wish
I could have done more
Copy !req
391. but I won't be able
to repair the damaged tissue
Copy !req
392. until we can get you
to the Infirmary.
Copy !req
393. Any luck?
Copy !req
394. Plenty, Major.
Copy !req
395. Unfortunately, all of it bad.
Copy !req
396. My personal code can activate
any terminal on this station.
Copy !req
397. However, that's
the extent of my access.
Copy !req
398. All I can do
is just look around.
Copy !req
399. I can tell you
exactly what's going on
Copy !req
400. but I can't
do anything about it.
Copy !req
401. As far as I can see,
the only person
Copy !req
402. who can disable the security
program is Gul Dukat.
Copy !req
403. Maybe there's a way
to fool the computer
Copy !req
404. into thinking
that you are Gul Dukat.
Copy !req
405. You could try rewriting
your code to match his.
Copy !req
406. Even if I could,
it wouldn't do any good.
Copy !req
407. If I were to input his code
Copy !req
408. the computer would scan
my DNA pattern
Copy !req
409. to determine
if I really were Dukat.
Copy !req
410. But what if we disable
the sensors in Ops
Copy !req
411. so that the computer
couldn't scan you?
Copy !req
412. What a creative idea.
Copy !req
413. It certainly is worth a try.
Copy !req
414. The question is,
can we disconnect the sensors
Copy !req
415. without anyone else
getting hurt?
Copy !req
416. We're just going
to have to take that chance.
Copy !req
417. We could switch
Copy !req
418. the sensor input
from the primary scanners
Copy !req
419. to the backup scanners.
Copy !req
420. The computer shouldn't
see that as a threat
Copy !req
421. but it'll blind the system
for a few seconds
Copy !req
422. while we make the changeover.
Copy !req
423. If it works, a few seconds
are all I'll need.
Copy !req
424. Major, I'm going to need a hand.
Copy !req
425. Well, tell me, Doctor,
what is it exactly
Copy !req
426. about this situation
that's making you smile?
Copy !req
427. You, Garak.
Copy !req
428. Hmm?
Copy !req
429. Just wondering
how many other tailors
Copy !req
430. can rewrite Cardassian
security protocols.
Copy !req
431. I wouldn't even venture a guess.
Copy !req
432. Which reminds me.
Copy !req
433. Those pants you wanted altered
are ready to be picked up.
Copy !req
434. Oh, this is a problem.
Copy !req
435. What's wrong?
Copy !req
436. I always suspected that Dukat
was a little paranoid.
Copy !req
437. He's left a rather large number
of interrogative subroutines
Copy !req
438. imbedded in his access code.
Copy !req
439. Meaning what?
Copy !req
440. Meaning the computer is
constantly challenging me
Copy !req
441. to prove that I am
who I say I am.
Copy !req
442. Lieutenant
Copy !req
443. how much longer before you can
disable those sensors?
Copy !req
444. Oh, at least
another ten minutes.
Copy !req
445. I'm not sure
we have that much time.
Copy !req
446. In fact, I'm sure we don't.
Copy !req
447. Warning. Unauthorized use
of command code.
Copy !req
448. Initiating counterinsurgency
program level four.
Copy !req
449. On three.
Copy !req
450. One, two
Copy !req
451. three.
Copy !req
452. You did it.
Copy !req
453. Okay, we have the power cable.
Copy !req
454. Now, we need to pack
the uridium around the door.
Copy !req
455. My phaser's on the Ops table!
Copy !req
456. Can anyone get to it?
Copy !req
457. The answer, Major, is no.
Copy !req
458. Well, we can't stay here
and do nothing.
Copy !req
459. I respectfully disagree, Major.
Copy !req
460. Nothing is about all we can do.
Copy !req
461. Let me guess.
Copy !req
462. Someone tried to duplicate
my access code, hmm?
Copy !req
463. Dukat!
Copy !req
464. What the hell
are you doing here?
Copy !req
465. A short time ago, I had
a very strange experience.
Copy !req
466. There I was, patrolling
the Demilitarized Zone
Copy !req
467. when I received
a distress signal... from me
Copy !req
468. or at least a recording of me.
Copy !req
469. It seems the Bajoran workers
were rioting on Terok Nor.
Copy !req
470. I must admit,
it piqued my curiosity.
Copy !req
471. I see.
Copy !req
472. The autodestruct program
has begun.
Copy !req
473. Well, well, well...
Copy !req
474. you are in trouble.
Copy !req
475. Where's Commander Sisko?
Copy !req
476. I trust he wasn't vaporized
Copy !req
477. while asking for one of those
raktajinos he's so fond of.
Copy !req
478. No, last we heard
Copy !req
479. he was trapped
in the ore processing unit.
Copy !req
480. Hmm.
Copy !req
481. I wish him well.
Copy !req
482. Well, can you help us or not?
Copy !req
483. Oh, most certainly.
Copy !req
484. All I have to do
is enter my command code
Copy !req
485. and shut down the program.
Copy !req
486. Well, then do it!
Copy !req
487. All in good time, Major Kira.
Copy !req
488. All in good time.
Copy !req
489. But, first, there are
a few things we should discuss.
Copy !req
490. Red leaf tea, please.
Copy !req
491. Doctor.
Copy !req
492. What do you want, Dukat?
Copy !req
493. You'll find I don't react well
to that tone of voice, Major.
Copy !req
494. Garak, groveling in a corner.
Copy !req
495. That alone makes
my trip worthwhile.
Copy !req
496. Garak!
Copy !req
497. Easy, Doctor.
Copy !req
498. It would appear
Copy !req
499. that the computer is
only targeting non-Cardassians.
Copy !req
500. If you had been on the station
when I designed this program
Copy !req
501. I would have made an exception
in your case.
Copy !req
502. Well, you've always
been shortsighted.
Copy !req
503. It's held you back
over the years.
Copy !req
504. As I recall, your father
had the same flaw.
Copy !req
505. My father's only flaw
was trusting you.
Copy !req
506. Funny, at his trial
Copy !req
507. your father said
that his biggest flaw was
Copy !req
508. that his ambition
outweighed his patriotism.
Copy !req
509. Maybe you two could
settle this at another time!
Copy !req
510. You're right, Major.
Copy !req
511. But believe me, Garak, that time
is coming.
Copy !req
512. Major!
Copy !req
513. Why don't you join me
in the Commander's office
Copy !req
514. where we can talk in private?
Copy !req
515. Oh! I forgot.
The replicator.
Copy !req
516. Well, it's the least I can do.
Copy !req
517. You can all rise now.
Copy !req
518. You're safe.
Copy !req
519. For the moment.
Copy !req
520. Major.
Copy !req
521. I know time is of the essence,
Major...
Copy !req
522. so I'll be brief.
Copy !req
523. I think it is time
Copy !req
524. to reestablish a permanent
Cardassian presence
Copy !req
525. aboard this station.
Copy !req
526. Nothing too elaborate,
mind you.
Copy !req
527. A garrison would suffice.
Copy !req
528. I can deploy troops
from my ship immediately.
Copy !req
529. And in return, I'll solve
your current dilemma.
Copy !req
530. Well, you know I'm never going
to agree to that.
Copy !req
531. I'm not sure you have
much of a choice here.
Copy !req
532. Dukat, you and I both know
Copy !req
533. neither Bajor nor the Federation
will ever honor an agreement
Copy !req
534. negotiated under a death threat.
Copy !req
535. I don't expect them
to be happy about it.
Copy !req
536. But once my troops are in place
Copy !req
537. I think you'll find it very
difficult to get them to leave.
Copy !req
538. Well, let me put
this another way.
Copy !req
539. I will destroy this station
Copy !req
540. before I ever give it back
to the Cardassians.
Copy !req
541. Yes... I'm sure you would.
Copy !req
542. But... would you allow 2,000
people aboard this station
Copy !req
543. to die simply because
you don't like... us?
Copy !req
544. Hmm.
Copy !req
545. Well...
Copy !req
546. there's no need
to decide just yet.
Copy !req
547. We still have
a little time left.
Copy !req
548. 30 minutes, in fact.
Copy !req
549. Why don't I return to my ship
Copy !req
550. so that you'll have time
to think about it?
Copy !req
551. Hmm?
Copy !req
552. I'll be back...
Copy !req
553. in, say, 25 minutes.
Copy !req
554. Dukat. One to transport.
Copy !req
555. Energize.
Copy !req
556. Energize.
Copy !req
557. Dukat, if you are seeing
this recording
Copy !req
558. it means you tried
to abandon your post
Copy !req
559. while the station's self-
destruct sequence was engaged.
Copy !req
560. That will not be permitted.
Copy !req
561. This is outrageous!
Copy !req
562. You have lost control of Terok
Nor, disgracing yourself
Copy !req
563. and Cardassia.
Copy !req
564. Your attempt
Copy !req
565. to escape is no doubt
a final act of cowardice.
Copy !req
566. All fail-safes
have been eliminated.
Copy !req
567. Your personal access codes
have been rescinded.
Copy !req
568. The destruct sequence
can no longer be halted.
Copy !req
569. All you can do now
is contemplate
Copy !req
570. the depth of your disgrace
Copy !req
571. and try to die
like a Cardassian.
Copy !req
572. Computer, abort
the self-destruct sequence.
Copy !req
573. This is a priority one override,
clearance level 9.
Copy !req
574. Dukat 5116 green.
Copy !req
575. Request denied.
Copy !req
576. All authorization codes
are void.
Copy !req
577. Time to self-destruct:
25 minutes.
Copy !req
578. Even your own computer program
turns against you.
Copy !req
579. I always knew
your shortsightedness
Copy !req
580. would be your downfall.
Copy !req
581. I don't see you coming up
with any ideas, tailor.
Copy !req
582. Look, if you two are
finished with the insults
Copy !req
583. we could use some help here.
Copy !req
584. Now, what can you tell us about
the self-destruct sequence?
Copy !req
585. It's very simple.
Copy !req
586. When the countdown is completed
Copy !req
587. the computer will order
the main fusion reactor
Copy !req
588. to disengage
the reaction stabilizers
Copy !req
589. causing it to overload,
destroying the station.
Copy !req
590. What about the reactor?
Copy !req
591. Is there any way
to shut it down?
Copy !req
592. It may be possible
to manually disengage
Copy !req
593. the laser fusion initiator,
but in order to do that
Copy !req
594. we have to be
in the reactor room.
Copy !req
595. Not necessarily.
Copy !req
596. We can disengage the initiator
Copy !req
597. from one of the control
junctions on level 34.
Copy !req
598. But now the computer's
wiped out the access codes
Copy !req
599. not even a Cardassian
can get out of this room.
Copy !req
600. Well, then maybe
we should concentrate
Copy !req
601. on trying to eliminate the force
field protecting the door.
Copy !req
602. We don't have time
to eliminate
Copy !req
603. every force field
between here and level 34.
Copy !req
604. What we need to do
is find a way to deactivate
Copy !req
605. all the force fields
on the station at the same time.
Copy !req
606. Okay, that should do it.
Copy !req
607. If we use much more,
we run the risk
Copy !req
608. of bringing the whole room
down around our ears.
Copy !req
609. All right,
we'd better take cover.
Copy !req
610. Would you...
like to do the honors, sir?
Copy !req
611. Keep your heads down.
Copy !req
612. It worked!
Copy !req
613. I set up this program,
and I assure you, Major
Copy !req
614. I will find a way to defeat it.
Copy !req
615. There is no dilemma
that cannot be solved
Copy !req
616. by a disciplined
Copy !req
617. Cardassian mind.
Copy !req
618. It's not going to work,
you know.
Copy !req
619. What are you
babbling on about now?
Copy !req
620. I'm talking about Major Kira.
Copy !req
621. What about her?
Copy !req
622. She's much too busy
trying to save this station
Copy !req
623. to be impressed
with your incessant posturing.
Copy !req
624. Garak!
Copy !req
625. And even if she weren't
Copy !req
626. she has much better taste
than to be attracted to you.
Copy !req
627. You, a married man.
Copy !req
628. I should have executed you
years ago.
Copy !req
629. Oh, you tried, remember?
Copy !req
630. Garak.
Copy !req
631. This isn't helping.
Copy !req
632. Wait a minute.
Copy !req
633. What about
the power supply grid?
Copy !req
634. If we could overload
the grid, we might be able
Copy !req
635. to cause a power surge
and short out
Copy !req
636. all the force fields
on the station.
Copy !req
637. It might even be enough
Copy !req
638. to eliminate
the dampening field
Copy !req
639. that's been keeping us
from using our communicators.
Copy !req
640. Tell me something, Major
Copy !req
641. the Cardassian
neutralization emitters
Copy !req
642. that were under here...
Copy !req
643. I assume you deactivated them
Copy !req
644. when you took control
of this station?
Copy !req
645. That's right.
Copy !req
646. We prefer our containment fields
to be nonlethal.
Copy !req
647. But are the emitters
still in place?
Copy !req
648. As far as I know.
Copy !req
649. Excellent!
Copy !req
650. That means that they
have not been affected
Copy !req
651. by the counterinsurgency
program.
Copy !req
652. That means, we still
have control of them.
Copy !req
653. Then, if we can get
the emitters
Copy !req
654. back on line, we can use them
to overload the power grid.
Copy !req
655. Exactly.
Copy !req
656. Do you think it'll be enough
to eliminate the force fields?
Copy !req
657. Unfortunately, we'll lose
Copy !req
658. the turbolifts
and the transporters
Copy !req
659. but they aren't much use
to us right now anyway.
Copy !req
660. Let's give it a try.
Copy !req
661. Anything?
Copy !req
662. I only got a couple
a hundred meters
Copy !req
663. and I was stopped
by a force field.
Copy !req
664. How about you?
Copy !req
665. We didn't even get that far.
Copy !req
666. There's got to be
some way up to Ops.
Copy !req
667. The turbolift shaft!
Copy !req
668. We can climb it
all the way to Ops.
Copy !req
669. Let's see if we can get
these doors open.
Copy !req
670. Dukat, we're running
out of time.
Copy !req
671. I am almost done.
Copy !req
672. I've got the emitters wired
into the control panel.
Copy !req
673. Now, all I have to do
is reattach them...
Copy !req
674. to the power grid, like so.
Copy !req
675. All right, I'm ready.
Copy !req
676. Brace yourselves.
Copy !req
677. Kira to Sisko.
Copy !req
678. Go ahead, Major.
Copy !req
679. Oh, Commander,
am I glad to hear you.
Copy !req
680. What's your location?
Copy !req
681. Level 29, Section D.
Copy !req
682. What's your status in Ops?
Copy !req
683. We've got about ten minutes
before the main reactor core
Copy !req
684. overloads
and destroys the station.
Copy !req
685. The only way to stop it
is to disengage
Copy !req
686. the laser fusion initiator
Copy !req
687. at one of the control
junctions on level 34
Copy !req
688. but the turbolifts
and transporters are off-line.
Copy !req
689. They'll never get there in time.
Copy !req
690. But we might.
Copy !req
691. Major, Mr. O'Brien and I
will handle the reactor.
Copy !req
692. You begin evacuating
the station.
Copy !req
693. Get as many people as you can
Copy !req
694. to the Defiant
and the runabouts.
Copy !req
695. Understood. Good luck.
Copy !req
696. Jake, I want you to head
for Runabout Pad C.
Copy !req
697. It's too far.
I'll never make it.
Copy !req
698. Listen to me, Jake!
Copy !req
699. I'm going with you.
Copy !req
700. All right.
Copy !req
701. Let's go.
Copy !req
702. Warning. Main fusion reactors
will overload in seven minutes.
Copy !req
703. Tell me something
I don't already know.
Copy !req
704. Kira to Odo.
Copy !req
705. Go ahead, Major.
Copy !req
706. We're beginning
evacuation procedures.
Copy !req
707. The force fields
have been deactivated
Copy !req
708. and all the doors on the station
should be operable.
Copy !req
709. All except one.
Copy !req
710. It seems the force field
around my office
Copy !req
711. is still in operation.
Copy !req
712. I'll send a work team
down immediately.
Copy !req
713. Warning. Main fusion reactors
will overload in six minutes.
Copy !req
714. Are you telling me, we're
the only ones still locked in?
Copy !req
715. This force field must be
Copy !req
716. on a separate system
from the others
Copy !req
717. But why go to so much trouble
Copy !req
718. to keep people
out of the security office?
Copy !req
719. It's not to keep people out.
Copy !req
720. It's to keep me in.
Copy !req
721. I suppose,
during the occupation
Copy !req
722. the Cardassians considered
Copy !req
723. their Security Chief
a security risk.
Copy !req
724. And I know why.
Copy !req
725. Oh, do you?
Copy !req
726. It's because they knew you
were an honorable man...
Copy !req
727. the kind of person who
would do the right thing
Copy !req
728. regardless of
the circumstances.
Copy !req
729. And now, your integrity...
Copy !req
730. is going to get us
both killed.
Copy !req
731. I hope you're happy.
Copy !req
732. Warning. Main fusion reactors
will overload in five minutes.
Copy !req
733. Chief, did you ever finish
Copy !req
734. those upgrades
on the deflector shields?
Copy !req
735. Yeah. Why?
Copy !req
736. We may not have time
Copy !req
737. to disengage
the fusion initiator.
Copy !req
738. What if we directed
the explosion
Copy !req
739. into the shields?
Copy !req
740. That's not a bad idea.
Copy !req
741. The shields are the only thing
on the station
Copy !req
742. that can absorb
that much energy.
Copy !req
743. That power surge we felt
must have blown out
Copy !req
744. one of the plasma conduits.
Copy !req
745. The corridor's completely
blocked for the next 50 meters.
Copy !req
746. Can't we get around it?
Copy !req
747. We don't have time.
Copy !req
748. There might be a way.
Copy !req
749. There's a maintenance conduit
adjacent to this corridor.
Copy !req
750. If it's not blocked
Copy !req
751. we might be able
to get around the debris
Copy !req
752. and get to the reactor
control junction.
Copy !req
753. Give me a hand.
Copy !req
754. I can feel heat
through the door.
Copy !req
755. What's wrong?
Copy !req
756. See for yourself.
Copy !req
757. Warning. Main fusion reactors
will overload in three minutes.
Copy !req
758. I want you to wait here.
Copy !req
759. Ah, but...
Copy !req
760. I mean it this time.
Copy !req
761. I'll go first.
Copy !req
762. Follow five meters behind me.
Copy !req
763. If one of us runs
into trouble in here...
Copy !req
764. I know, I know.
Copy !req
765. The other one keeps on going.
Copy !req
766. O'Brien!
Copy !req
767. Warning. Main fusion reactors
will overload in 90 seconds.
Copy !req
768. Sisko to O'Brien.
Copy !req
769. Chief, can you hear me?
Copy !req
770. Chief, answer me!
Copy !req
771. Warning. Main fusion reactors
will overload in 60 seconds.
Copy !req
772. Warning. Main fusion reactors
will overload in 30 seconds.
Copy !req
773. Jake... I thought
your father told you
Copy !req
774. to stay out of there.
Copy !req
775. If you don't tell him, I won't.
Copy !req
776. Warning. Main fusion
reactor overload.
Copy !req
777. O'Brien to Sisko.
Copy !req
778. Chief, you're all right?
Copy !req
779. Yeah, looks like we all are.
Copy !req
780. Ah. It's about time.
Copy !req
781. All right, Quark,
you can leave now.
Copy !req
782. "A self-important con artist
Copy !req
783. who's nowhere near as clever
as he thinks he is."
Copy !req
784. That's your official
security evaluation of me.
Copy !req
785. Quark, I told you
to stay away from the computer.
Copy !req
786. Two hours ago, you told me
Copy !req
787. I was the most devious
Ferengi you ever met.
