Oops, we're a little tangled up here.
QUARK: I should've listened to my cousin Gaila. He said to me, "Quark, I've got one word for you... weapons." No one ever went broke selling weapons. But did I take his advice... No. And why not? Because I'm a people person. I like interacting with my customers. Like you and I are doing right now. Talking to each other, getting to know one another...
GARAK (sarcastic): I can see the attraction... for you.
QUARK: But when you're dealing in weapons, buyers aren't interested in casual conversation. They just want their merchandise... no questions asked. It's so impersonal.
GARAK: Your charms would be wasted.

Quark: Exactly. So now Gaila owns his own moon, and I'm staring into the abyss. And the worst part is, my only hope for salvation is the Federation.
GARAK: I know precisely how you feel.
Quark: I want you to try something for me. Take a sip of this.
GARAK (staring skeptically): What is it?
QUARK: A human drink. It's called root beer.
QUARK: Come on, aren't you just a little bit curious?
Garak: It's vile.
QUARK: I know. It's so bubbly and cloying and happy.
GARAK: Just like the Federation.
QUARK: But you know what's really frightening? If you drink enough of it, you start to like it.
Garak: It's insidious.
QUARK: Just like the Federation.
QUARK: I hope so.
O'BRIEN: Not yet ... Hold on. I'm picking up something on long-range scanners. It's the Defiant.
