"Homefront"/"Paradise Lost" Line-by-Line

Security Officer: You don't really expect me to let down that forcefield and go in there with you?

 

ODO: He's not the one you should be worried about. I am.

 

^ continued.

Odo: Come here.

Odo disarms the Chief, slams him into a wall, then somehow neck pinches the Blood Screening officer into unconsciousness. He then starts working on a control panel.

Sisko: Nicely done, Constable.

 

ODO: It wasn't that difficult. After all I did help you revise the security measures for this building.

 

Sisko: Lucky for me. Have you contacted Major Kira?

 

ODO: The Defiant is on its way to Earth.

 

SISKO: They found what we were looking for.

 

ODO: It was just as you suspected. They even found the officer responsible. Lieutenant Arriaga. They've put him on the Defiant.

(The forcefield comes down)

 

SISKO: You have to get to the President. Tell him everything we know. And warn him that Leyton's going to make his move sometime today.

 

ODO: What about you?

 

SISKO: I have some business to take care of.

 

[Leyton's office]

BENTEEN (on comm): I understand the situation, Admiral. I'll do my best.

 

LEYTON: Good luck, Captain Benteen. Leyton out.
(Sisko enters, armed.)
LEYTON: Are you planning on using that?

 

SISKO: Against a fellow officer? I hope not. But I will have to ask for your resignation.

(Sisko takes Leyton's comm-badge)

 

LEYTON: You'll forgive me if I don't leap at the opportunity.

 

SISKO: I have enough evidence to convict you of treason.

 

LEYTON: Do you?

 

Sisko: We have Lieutenant Arriaga in custody. He is prepared to admit that under your orders he attached a subspace modulator to the relay satellite on the far side of the wormhole. That is why it was opening and closing at random.

 

LEYTON: Why would anyone want to do that?

 

Sisko: To make it look like a cloaked Dominion Fleet had entered Federation Space. So that when the Earths power relays were sabotaged, it would look like an invasion was imminent.
