"Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges" Line-by-Line

[May 20]

SISKO: That was my instinct as well, but after talking to Ross I think we might have an opportunity here we can turn to our advantage. Officially, Starfleet Command has said that they are appalled at the very notion that an organisation like Section Thirty one might exist, and that they plan to get to the bottom of this entire business.

 

[Kertrats47]

BASHIR: And unofficially?

 

[sekundant]

SISKO: They have quietly pushed the investigation aside, which means either they don't take 31 seriously or someone at Starfleet Command is protecting them. Either way, we now have a chance to get someone inside and I think I want to take it.

 

[Kertrats47]

BASHIR: So you want me to play along, pretend that I've decided to work for Sloan after all?

 

[May 20]

SISKO: Exactly. When he contacts you to find out what you learned at the conference, make it seem like you've reluctantly come around to his way of thinking. Let him believe that he has seduced you into helping him.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

BASHIR: That shouldn't be too difficult. Sloan thinks I'm already so tempted that I can barely can see straight. Well, listen, I'd better packed. The Bellerophon leaves in three hours.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

SISKO: One more thing, Doctor. Remember this isn't a game. Section 31 is very dangerous. If Sloan suspects that you are really working for us...

 

[sekundant]

BASHIR: I understand.

 

[Athena28]

SISKO: Good hunting.

 

[May 20]

[Bellerophon mess hall]

CRETAK: A glass of Romulan ale, Doctor?

 

[sekundant]

BASHIR: Thank you, Senator.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

ROSS: The trading embargo has been officially lifted, if you were wondering.

 

[May 20]

BASHIR: It hadn't crossed my mind, actually.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

ROSS: To one of the many benefits of the Alliance.

[Ross drinks and coughs.]

 

[mattman8907]

BASHIR: Need a medical team, sir?

 

[May 20]

ROSS: No, thank you.

 

[sekundant]

CRETAK: Don't tell me this is your first glass of Romulan ale.

 

[mattman8907]

ROSS: Well, it was illegal.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

CRETAK: That never stopped most of your colleagues.

 

[May 20]

ROSS: I know. I was probably one of the few officers in the fleet who didn't indulge occasionally.
