"What You Leave Behind" Line-by-Line

[Enterprise1981]

DUKAT: No, no, no. Benjamin Sisko will be dealt with by me and me alone.

 

[HarryM]

WINN: Assuming he survives the invasion of Cardassia.

 

[Orac]

Dukat: Oh, he'll survive. But I promise you, he'll wish he hadn't.

 

[HarryM]

[Holosuite - Vic's lounge]

(A two man card game is ongoing.)

VIC: You going to sit there all night, Quark?

 

[Orac]

Quark: Got any threes?

 

[HarryM]

VIC: Go fish.

(Quark draws a card and throws his hand in.)

VIC: Don't tell me you're quitting?

 

[Athena28]

QUARK: It's just not my game.

 

[BlueStuff]

VIC: Want to try pinochle again? How about rummy, or gin rummy? Five card stud? Canasta?

 

[HarryM]

QUARK: How about some tongo?

 

[BlueStuff]

VIC: Did they play tongo in Las Vegas in 1962?

 

[HarryM]

QUARK: How could they? It's a Ferengi game.

 

[mach7]

VIC: Which is why my holographic programme can't create it.

 

[BlueStuff]

QUARK: I know, I know, this place is period specific. For a hologram, you're not very accommodating.

 

[mach7]

VIC: Oh, is that why you dropped by? To insult me?

 

[BlueStuff]

QUARK: I dropped by because I had nothing else to do. My bar hasn't had half a dozen customers all day. Everyone's off fighting this stupid war.

 

[mach7]

VIC: It's not easy staying behind, is it? Knowing that your friends are out there risking their lives.

 

[BlueStuff]

QUARK: They think they have it rough? They should try leading my life for a day. The hospitality industry isn't for the faint-hearted.

 

[mach7]

VIC: A bartender's life is a lonely one.

 

[Orac]

Quark: That's true, but few people understand that. They think it's one big, happy party. They forget that the person giving the party never has any fun. He's too busy making sure everybody else is having fun. All I do all day long is give, give, give.

 

[HarryM]

VIC: Bartending is a very noble profession. You do it well, under some very difficult circumstances, I might add. You should be proud.

(The band arrives.)
