"The Search" Line-by-Line!

[Alienesse]

BORATH: Not at all. You seem skeptical.

 

[BlueStuff]

SISKO: Can you blame me?

 

[Alienesse]

BORATH: No. I realize you have no reason to trust the Dominion, but you must understand that we were only trying to defend ourselves.

 

[Athena28]

SISKO: From what?

 

[Alienesse]

BORATH: We felt threatened by your incursions into the Gamma Quadrant.

 

[BlueStuff]

SISKO: And now?

 

[Alienesse]

BORATH: Commander, you risked your life to bring us a message of peace and friendship. We chose to accept your offer. Would you rather we refused?

 

[BlueStuff]

SISKO: No.

 

[Alienesse]

BORATH: Good. Because believe me, Commander, an alliance between the Dominion and the Federation will be beneficial to both our people.

GARAK: Doctor, welcome back.

 

[Alienesse]

BASHIR: Why thank you, Garak. It's good to be back.

 

[BlueStuff]

GARAK: Yes.

 

[Alienesse]

BASHIR: Business keeping you busy?

 

[BlueStuff]

GARAK: The tailoring business, or the spy business? I'm joking, of course.

 

[Alienesse]

BASHIR: Of course.

 

[BlueStuff]

GARAK: I've missed you. I've been genuinely concerned for your safety. Lunch hasn't been the same without you.

 

[Leandar]

Julian: That's very kind of you to say so, Garak. Hopefully things'll start getting back to normal around here.

 

[BlueStuff]

GARAK: Oh, I doubt that's going to happen, Doctor. I doubt that very much.

 

[Leandar]

Julian: And why is that?

 

[Athena28]

GARAK: There's an old saying on Cardassia. Enemies make dangerous friends. And I fear the Dominion will make a very dangerous friend indeed.
