"Tribunal" Line-by-Line

[Infirmary]

It is dark when Bashir enters.

BASHIR: Computer, lights.

No response so he tries a panel. Nothing happens.

 

MAQUIS MEMBER: Don't turn around, Doctor.

 

BASHIR: There's nothing here you could want.

 

MAQUIS MEMBER: You have a man in custody suspected of arranging the theft of photon warheads... Raymond Boone...

 

BASHIR: That's right.

 

MAQUIS MEMBER: I am here to tell you he is not one of us.

 

Bashir: One of us? You're from the Maquis.

 

BASHIR: One of us? You're from the Maquis.

 

MAQUIS MEMBER: That's correct.

 

BASHIR: Why should I believe you?

 

MAQUIS MEMBER: We knew nothing about the theft and he is not one of us. That's all I can tell you.

 

Bashir: How do I know that you're not just trying to protect him? Who else would want photon-

Bashir turns around to see that the Maquis member has left, just as the lights come back on.

Bashir: -warheads?

 

Cardassia Prime.

GUL EVEK: The Maquis are savage, Federation- born killers... they live to terrorize and murder innocent Cardassians...

 

[Courtroom]

The torpedoes are in the court as evidence.

GUL EVEK: You terrorise and murder innocent Cardassians, as evidenced by these weapons we confiscated from O'Brien's ship.

 

KOVAT: These Maquis are based in the Demilitarized zone?

 

GUL EVEK: They are all from Federation settlements in Cardassian-occupied territories... frankly, the situation is becoming untenable... how many innocent people have to die before that becomes clear?

 

KOVAT: How do you know these photon warheads recovered from the offender's vessel were intended for the Maquis?

 

GUL EVEK: According to reliable sources, the Maquis arranged the theft.

 

ODO: I object.

 

KOVAT: Madame Archon, please!
