"Improbable Cause"/"The Die is Cast" Line-by-Line

ODO: You're going to attack the Dominion, aren't you. You're going to stage a first strike against them before they can come into the Alpha Quadrant.
 
ODO: Garak, this is the man who put you into exile. This is the man who just two days ago tried to have you killed.
 
And now the conclusion.

[Replimat]
