I'm going to borrow a wonderful idea from the 'Movies' and 'Ent' forum and do a line by line reading of a great DS9 episode. I have chosen one of my favorite Dukat episodes, the excellent 'Return to Grace'. Great story and great dialogue (or should I say monologues) I'll kick off with: Kira Neryrs: "Is all this really necessary?"
Bashir: The Klingon invasion has all but destroyed the Cardassian health system. They're suffering outbreaks of all kinds of diseases and in epidemic proportions. Besides, you've only got twelve more inoculations to go. (Three cheers for line-by-line threads. I'll make commodore in no time!)
Kira: I don't want to go. I'm no diplomat. Going to some Cardassian outpost to share Bajoran intelligence about the Klingons isn't exactly the kind of thing I'm good at. I'm not even sure why I even agreed to go.
Kira: It was a personal request all right. Shakaar took me to his favorite restaurant in Jalanda City,poured me glass after glass of Spring Wine, then took me back to his home, and gave me a massage with Koliash spice oil.
Kira: (still in full blown strop mode): It wasn't fair. At that point, I would have said yes to anything.
Bashir: (grins like a schoolboy): Good. Means the vaccine's working. Everything will settle down in a moment.
Bashir: (to Kira) This one might make you a little queasy. (to Worf) If you have something to say to the major, you'd better make it fast.
Worf: (frowns at the doctor and takes a deep sigh): Major, the Federation has some concerns about your upcoming meeting with the Cardassians.
