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

[BlueStuff]

SISKO: I'm fine. Admiral, what's going on?

 

[MacLeod]

LEYTON: From what we can tell, Earth's entire power relay system's been knocked off-line. Even Starfleet's emergency backups have been affected.

 

[BlueStuff]

SISKO: How could that happen?

 

[MacLeod]

LEYTON: We don't know for certain. But, if you ask me, there's only one possible explanation...

 

[BlueStuff]

ODO: Sabotage.

 

[MacLeod]

SISKO: The changelings.

 

[BlueStuff]

ODO: Take down the power relays, and you neutralise sensors, transporters, surface-based defence installations.

 

[MacLeod]

SISKO: In other words, Earth's defenseless.

 

[Enterprise1981]

[President's office]

JARESH-INYO: I am not interested in excuses. It is imperative that we get the power relay system functioning again.

Sisko and company beam in.

 

[MacLeod]

LEYTON: Mister President.

 

[Enterprise1981]

JARESH-INYO: How did you people get here?

 

[MacLeod]

SISKO: We contacted the Lakota and used their transporters. Sir, as acting head of Earth Security, I must advise you to declare a State of Emergency.

 

[Enterprise1981]

JARESH-INYO: You're serious? With the exception of the Borg incident, there hasn't been a State of Emergency declared on Earth in a century.

 

[MacLeod]

SISKO: I'm aware of that. But I have reason to believe a Dominion warfleet may be in the Alpha Quadrant headed for Earth.

 

[Enterprise1981]

JARESH-INYO: Do you have evidence to back this up?

 

[MacLeod]

SISKO: Just before we left Deep Space Nine, the wormhole was exhibiting some unusual behavior... opening and closing for no apparent reason.

 

[Leandar]

Odo: We didn't detect any ships coming through at the time. But the Dominion may have been using some kind of cloaking technology.

 

[MacLeod]

JARESH-INYO: I wasn't aware the Dominion had cloaking technology.

 

[Athena28]

ODO: The combined Cardassian and Romulan fleet that the Dominion destroyed in the Gamma Quadrant was equipped with cloaking devices. Who knows what my people might have taken from the wreckage?

 

[Orac]

Jaresh-Inyo: How long until the power relays are fixed?
