"In The Pale Moonlight" Line-by-Line

[Athena28]

GARAK: That's it. Freeze program. That's all the new material. The rest of the program plays exactly as you saw it before. What do you think?

 

[Enterprise1981]

SISKO: It's better. They seem more real.

 

[Athena28]

GARAK: Yes, and all I had to do was add a little petty bickering and mutual loathing.

 

[Enterprise1981]

TOLAR: So, you are happy?

 

[Athena28]

SISKO: It's satisfactory.

 

[Enterprise1981]

GARAK: You may record the program onto the data rod now. (The scenario vanishes.)

 

[Athena28]

SISKO: I've received a message. Senator Vreenak is on the way.

 

[Enterprise1981]

GARAK: Excellent.

 

[BlueStuff]

TOLAR: Done. Who gets it?

 

[Enterprise1981]

GARAK: Just put it in the case. (The wooden case has a Cardassian emblem on it.)

 

[Admiral Shran]

TOLAR: Well. It has been a pleasure doing business with you, gentlemen. Call me again if you ever need....

 

[Enterprise1981]

SISKO: You're not going anywhere.

 

[Admiral Shran]

TOLAR: What? What do you mean?

 

[Enterprise1981]

SISKO: I mean you're not leaving until your work is accepted by our client.

 

[Admiral Shran]

TOLAR: That isn't fair. You can't keep me here against my will! I haven't done anything wrong. We had an agreement.

(Sisko pushes Tolar up against the bulkhead.)

 

[Enterprise1981]

SISKO: I'm making a new agreement. If that program passes inspection, you walk free, but if there's even the slightest flaw, the I will send you back to that Klingon prison and tell Gowron to take his time while he executes you.

 

[Admiral Shran]

TOLAR: All right. It will pass. You'll see. It will pass.

 

[Leandar]

Garak: I sincerely hope so. Now why don't you go back to your quarters? I'll be along shortly to say... hello.

(Off Tolar's terrified expression....)

 

[Alienesse]

[Sisko's quarters]

SISKO: Maybe I was under more pressure than I realized. Maybe it really was starting to get to me. But I was off the hook. Starfleet Command had given the plan their blessing and I thought that would make things easier. But I was the one who had to make it happen. I was the one who had to look Senator Vreenak in his eye and convince him that a lie was the truth.

 

[Enterprise1981]

[Corridor]

GARAK: So while you're entertaining the Senator in the wardroom, I'll take the opportunity to make a quick search of his ship's database.
