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

[Athena28]

[Replimat]
BASHIR: What was the assignment, anyway?

 

[May 20]

GARAK: I'm afraid I can't talk about that. Back to the subject at hand. What will your role be at this conference?

 

[sekundant]

BASHIR: Well, I'll be giving a talk on Dominion biogenic weapons, chairing a seminar on Ketracel white, and attending a meeting on a proposal to transfer twenty five Federation hospital ships over to Romulan control.

 

[May 20]

GARAK: How dull.

 

[mattman8907]

BASHIR: Sorry to disappoint you. Admiral Ross and his staff will be discussing the exciting military issues.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

GARAK: I see. I trust that Starfleet Intelligence will be sending someone along to make good use of this opportunity.

 

[May 20]

BASHIR: What do you mean?

 

[Athena28]

GARAK: Isn't it obvious? This is a golden opportunity to gather intelligence on Romulan intentions and military capabilities.

 

[May 20]

BASHIR: They're our allies, Garak. And with any luck, this could be the beginning of a entirely new friendship between our peoples.

 

[sekundant]

GARAK: The eternal optimist.

 

[May 20]

BASHIR: Guilty as charged.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

GARAK: How sad. I must tell you I'm disappointed hearing you mouthing the usual platitudes of peace and friendship regarding an implacable foe like the Romulans. But, I live in hope that one day you'll come to see this universe for what it truly is, rather than what you'd wish it to be.

 

[May 20]

BASHIR: Well, I shall endeavor to become more cynical with each passing day, look gift horses squarely in the mouth and find clouds in every silver lining.

 

[Athena28]

GARAK: If only you meant it.

 

[May 20]

[Bashir's bedroom]

(Bashir wakes suddenly)
BASHIR: Lights.
(Sloan is sitting on a chair at the end of the bed.)
BASHIR: Sloan.

 

[sekundant]

SLOAN: Hello, Doctor. It's good to see you. I hope you're well rested. Section 31 has an assignment for you.

(@Kertrats47 Is everything ok with you? We miss you here )

 

[Kertrats47]

BASHIR: You're taking quite a risk. I could have a security team here in thirty seconds.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

SLOAN: I suspect you'd be unable to communicate with anyone outside this room.

 

[mattman8907]

BASHIR: I could scream for help.

 

[Athena28]

SLOAN: Possible, but uncharacteristic. Screaming for help, that's too undignified for you. But don't let me stop you. I enjoy being wrong.
