"The House of Quark" Line-by-Line

TUMEK: That pahtk's name is not spoken in this house. He is no brother to Kozak. His family has been a sworn enemy of this house for seven generations.
 
TUMEK: What he told you were lies. He wanted you to say that Kozak had died in honorable combat so that no special dispensation would be granted.
 
TUMEK: If Kozak had died in an accident and left no male heir, the Council might have decided that this was an unusual situation and granted special dispensation. That might have allowed Grilka to become head of the family even though she's a woman. But if Kozak died in an honorable fight, and was simply defeated by a better opponent, then no dispensation would have been granted, and without a male heir the House will fall.
 
GRILKA: That hasn't happened yet, Tumek, and there is still time to prevent it from ever happening.
(She offers a robe to Quark.)
GRILKA: Put this on.
 
GRILKA: The decision is made. There is no other choice.
(Quark struggles into the robe and Grilka takes his hand.)
GRILKA: Go'Eveh lu cha wabeh. Mo ka re'Chos.
 
:eek::lol: Boy, she sure knows how to motivate him! :lol:

QUARK: Go'Eveh lu cha wabeh to va re'Luk.
