{69}{98}Worf to Major Kira. {99}{161}This is Kira. {162}{248}Major, you have an incoming|transmission from a... {249}{291}Razka Karn. {292}{341}He claims to be an old friend. {375}{418}Put him through. {533}{579}Razka... it's been awhile. {580}{613}How's business? {614}{675}Oh, let's just say,|I miss the old days on Bajor. {676}{765}Smuggling might not have been|the safest line of work {766}{832}but it was a lot more exciting|than selling scrap metal. {833}{877}What's on your mind, Razka? {878}{958}I picked up a lead|on the Ravinok. {1012}{1048}Like the last time? {1049}{1099}Last time, it was just a rumor. {1100}{1173}This time I've got evidence--|a fragment of metal. {1174}{1238}Looks like it's part|of the forward sensor array. {1239}{1315}Can you bring it|to Deep Space 9 for analysis? {1316}{1385}Sorry, I'm afraid I can't leave|the Badlands right now. {1385}{1422}Important business. {1423}{1464}You understand. {1465}{1505}Tholians are after you again. {1506}{1601}Let's just say it would be|better if you came to me. {1657}{1719}It's been six years. {1720}{1777}Even if you have found|a piece of the Ravinok {1778}{1817}it doesn't mean|there are any survivors. {1818}{1913}There's only one way|for you to find out. {1913}{1964}I'll be waiting. {4852}{4966}And item number 17,|Trelos Vren was arrested {4967}{5023}on the Promenade outside|of the Klingon restaurant. {5024}{5094}He's being held on four|counts of petty theft. {5095}{5165}Trelos Vren... where have I|heard that name before? {5166}{5198}We arrested him once {5199}{5252}for attempting to break|into the Assay Office. {5252}{5295}And now he's taken up|pick-pocketing? {5296}{5345}Mmm... without much success. {5374}{5476}Still, I suppose you|should admire him {5476}{5537}for his persistence. {5580}{5631}That was a joke. {5632}{5703}I'm sorry, Odo. {5778}{5823}I may have a lead|on the Ravinok. {5824}{5881}I know what you're going to say. {5882}{5924}It's been six years since|the Ravinok disappeared. {5925}{5970}Odds are,|everyone on board is dead. {5972}{6001}That all may be true {6002}{6062}but that is not|what I was going to say. {6063}{6128}I was going to say "good luck." {6129}{6184}Good luck? {6185}{6252}You had a friend aboard|the Ravinok, correct? {6252}{6318}Lorit Akrem. {6319}{6375}Which means it doesn't matter {6376}{6420}if I think|there are any survivors {6420}{6465}of even if you think|there are any survivors. {6466}{6520}You're going to go|looking for that ship {6520}{6588}and all I can say|is "good luck." {6589}{6639}And I hope you find them. {6824}{6856}Come in. {6883}{6920}Captain. {6921}{6950}You here to see me off? {6951}{7020}I'm afraid not. {7021}{7074}I'd like for you|to postpone your trip {7076}{7100}for at least a day or two. {7101}{7124}What's wrong? {7125}{7162}Somehow the Cardassian|government {7163}{7232}got wind of your plan|to search for the Ravinok. {7232}{7312}They've asked permission|to send someone with you. {7313}{7349}And you said yes? {7350}{7404}I said I'd talk to you about it. {7455}{7523}The Ravinok was|a Cardassian ship. {7524}{7587}Carrying Bajoran prisoners. {7684}{7749}No, I'm not stopping|anyone else from looking. {7750}{7808}I just don't see why|they have to come with me. {7845}{7879}The request came directly {7880}{7946}from the leader|of the new civilian government. {7973}{8008}Nerys... {8011}{8078}I know this isn't|what you had in mind {8079}{8192}but Bajor and Cardassia|must learn to work together {8193}{8318}and that means cooperating|on missions like these. {8405}{8445}All right. {8446}{8504}Just tell them|I'm not going to wait forever. {8505}{8549}If their representative|isn't here {8550}{8594}within 52 hours,|I'm going alone. {8742}{8796}I'll be sure|they get the message. {8996}{9057}So, did you and Kasidy|have a nice time last night? {9058}{9132}Huh. I just wish she|wasn't leaving tomorrow. {9133}{9191}Sounds like the two of you|are getting serious. {9192}{9221}I don't know about that. {9222}{9271}I don't think Kasidy is|looking to get serious. {9272}{9295}Ben! {9296}{9319}Kasidy! {9320}{9371}We were just talking about you. {9372}{9407}I don't mean to interrupt. {9408}{9435}I wanted you to know {9436}{9495}that I won't be leaving|tomorrow after all. {9496}{9583}Ah, that's good news.|I mean, that's great. {9584}{9614}How long are you|going to be here? {9615}{9638}Well, that depends {9639}{9679}on whether I get|this new job or not. {9680}{9720}I've, uh, applied for a position {9721}{9770}with the Bajoran|Ministry of Commerce {9771}{9811}to captain|one of their freighters. {9812}{9855}You're going to work|for the Bajorans? {9856}{9927}If we can hammer|out an agreement. {9928}{9975}It's a terrific opportunity. {9976}{10033}I get to use my own ship,|pick my own crew {10034}{10069}and the best part is {10070}{10119}I never have|to leave this sector. {10120}{10174}Where are you going to live? {10175}{10220}On my ship, I suppose. {10220}{10253}Well, why don't you stay here? {10254}{10323}I'm sure that Benjamin|could arrange for some quarters. {10324}{10408}That's, uh...|not a bad idea. {10478}{10516}Yeah. {10544}{10600}Well, l... have|a meeting on Bajor {10600}{10637}and the shuttle leaves {10638}{10672}in a few minutes. {10673}{10725}I'll see you tonight? {10869}{10912}That answers that. {10913}{10966}She's serious. {11190}{11221}Captain... {11223}{11300}the Cardassian Transport Rabol|is approaching the station. {11301}{11345}They are requesting|permission to beam {11346}{11389}their representative|directly to Ops. {11391}{11432}Someone's in a big hurry. {11432}{11474}Permission granted. {11475}{11506}Aye, sir. {11628}{11655}Ah! {11656}{11687}Major Kira. {11754}{11825}I'm ready to leave|whenever you are. {12127}{12180}We'll be crossing|into the Badlands {12182}{12218}in approximately six hours. {12219}{12265}Very good, Major. {12266}{12320}Dukat, let's get|one thing straight. {12320}{12344}This is my mission. {12344}{12376}The only reason you're here {12376}{12438}is because I agreed|to let you come along. {12439}{12489}When I give an order,|I expect you to follow it {12490}{12524}no questions asked. {12525}{12575}Believe me, Major,|I want nothing more {12576}{12632}than for this mission|to be concluded {12633}{12695}as quickly and as efficiently|as possible {12696}{12779}and I leave the details|in your capable hands. {12780}{12836}Good. Then we shouldn't|have any problems. {12899}{12933}There's one thing|I don't understand. {12934}{12976}Why did the Cardassian|government send you? {13009}{13085}The Ravinok was under|my general command. {13086}{13119}Those were my troops {13120}{13183}and it is my duty|to try to find them. {13184}{13278}The question is,|what are you doing here, Major? {13316}{13367}I knew someone|aboard the Ravinok. {13368}{13418}One of the prisoners, I assume? {13451}{13481}Lorit Akrem. {13482}{13529}I see. {13530}{13598}So you're on this mission|for personal reasons. {13599}{13649}Is there something wrong|with that? {13650}{13692}No, not at all. {13693}{13768}I've found that when one|has a difficult job to do {13769}{13879}personal reasons can be|quite an incentive. {13880}{13944}So who was he? {13945}{14019}A family member, a compatriot... {14020}{14056}a lover? {14143}{14215}Lorit recruited me into|the Shakaar resistance cell. {14216}{14272}Ah... {14272}{14332}the infamous Shakaar resistance. {14332}{14429}We never could eliminate|that little group of yours. {14430}{14520}And it was not from lack|of trying, I can assure you. {14521}{14606}I... hope you don't take this|the wrong way, Major {14607}{14649}but I've always admired you. {14694}{14756}You are the embodiment|of the new Bajor-- {14757}{14859}a Bajoran born out of the ashes|of the occupation. {14860}{14945}A Bajoran tempered|with Cardassian steel. {14946}{15006}Oh, Captain Sisko's right. {15007}{15062}You are in love with|the sound of your own voice. {15063}{15165}I know you find this|hard to accept, but... {15165}{15216}I believe that, in some ways {15217}{15288}the occupation|actually helped Bajor. {15289}{15333}Which part? {15334}{15408}The massacres|or the strip mining? {15409}{15436}I have no desire {15437}{15501}to debate the merits|of the occupation with you. {15502}{15587}I'm even willing to admit that|perhaps we were a little harsh {15588}{15661}in our methods, but the fact is,|the Bajoran people {15662}{15747}are stronger now than they|have been in centuries. {15748}{15841}When we arrived, you were|a weak, contemplative race {15841}{15896}choking on your isolation {15897}{15957}and now you have|a new confidence {15958}{16014}a whole new sense of purpose {16015}{16081}not to mention a key role {16082}{16149}in the future|of this entire Quadrant. {16150}{16246}All of which Bajor accomplished|in spite of the Cardassians {16247}{16281}not because of them. {16282}{16347}Think what you must {16348}{16401}but I believe the time will come {16402}{16483}when Cardassia|and Bajor will grow {16484}{16544}to be not only allies {16545}{16626}but also close friends. {16627}{16710}Bajor and Cardassia, maybe. {16711}{16760}You and me... {16761}{16797}I doubt it. {16797}{16865}All I ask is that|you have an open mind. {16866}{16918}All right, Dukat, that's enough. {16921}{16947}Now, if you don't mind {16948}{16996}I would like to spend|the next six hours {16997}{17045}in silent meditation. {17045}{17105}Is that a request or an order? {17105}{17152}Whatever it takes. {17153}{17255}Well, in that case,|as much as it pains me... {17462}{17493}Hmm. {17494}{17553}We both might survive|this trip after all. {17703}{17766}They didn't even wait|for the interview to be over. {17767}{17849}After 20 minutes, Minister Azin|said she'd heard enough {17850}{17903}and if I wanted the job,|it was mine. {17904}{17946}So what did you tell them? {17947}{17999}What do you think I told them? {17999}{18025}I said yes. {18026}{18061}Congratulations. {18089}{18139}That's it? {18140}{18175}Oh. {18226}{18284}That's...|that's not what I meant. {18285}{18363}I want to know|how you feel about it. {18364}{18447}Well... I think it's great. {18447}{18491}We'll see a lot more|of each other. {18493}{18580}You know, I was thinking|about what Dax said. {18581}{18675}Maybe I should get|quarters on the station. {18675}{18725}That's a big step. {18726}{18767}What does that mean? {18851}{18902}Well, I just meant... {18903}{18944}it's a big step. {18997}{19080}A bad big step|or a good big step? {19127}{19168}A good one. {19169}{19247}Could you muster up|a little more enthusiasm? {19247}{19313}I am enthusiastic. {19314}{19353}I'm proud of you. {19354}{19379}This job... {19380}{19430}Forget about the job. {19431}{19497}I'm talking about us. {19499}{19584}I tell you I'm thinking|about living on the station {19585}{19668}and all you can say is,|"it's a big step"? {19669}{19772}Oh, I don't think you took it|the way I meant it. {19773}{19863}I don't think you know|what you meant, but I do. {19863}{19939}You're afraid of commitment. {19940}{20001}Who said anything|about commitment? {20003}{20033}Obviously not you. {20034}{20100}You... you know what? {20101}{20135}Forget the whole thing. {20136}{20196}I'm not going to take the job. {20197}{20256}If you don't want me|to stay here {20257}{20285}that's fine with me. {20379}{20412}Whew! {20891}{20927}How'd you get ahold of this,|Razka? {20927}{20995}I bought it off|a Ferengi scrap-metal merchant. {20996}{21123}Hmm... it appears to be|composed of uridium alloy. {21124}{21159}It's definitely Cardassian. {21159}{21201}Can you tell if it's|from the Ravinok? {21401}{21456}Why didn't you tell me|you were bringing him along? {21457}{21509}Because when we talked,|I didn't know I would be. {21510}{21533}Too bad. {21534}{21571}The Maquis would've|paid handsomely {21572}{21600}to get their hands on him. {21601}{21630}And my government {21631}{21713}would be very happy|to get its hands on you. {21738}{21795}Razka Karn, if I'm not mistaken. {21795}{21887}Smuggler, thief,|black marketeer. {21888}{21963}There are at least|12 outstanding warrants {21964}{22052}for your arrest|on Cardassia right now {22053}{22115}but I suggest|we ignore all that {22116}{22186}and try to cooperate|with one another. {22187}{22247}The voice of the new Cardassia-- {22248}{22312}so compassionate,|so understanding. {22313}{22371}Almost makes you forget|that five years ago {22372}{22410}he was working|Bajorans to death {22411}{22436}in forced labor camps {22437}{22494}and shooting anybody|who tried to stop him. {22495}{22555}Almost makes you forget. {22556}{22623}It's from the Ravinok... {22623}{22667}no doubt about it. {22667}{22726}Did the Ferengi tell you|where he found it? {22727}{22754}No, but I was curious {22755}{22796}so I bribed one|of his crew members. {22797}{22871}Turns out his last trip|was to the Dozaria system. {22872}{22916}Dozaria... {22917}{23019}I believe there is one|Class-M planet in that system. {23019}{23061}Barely Class-M. {23062}{23115}He found that in orbit. {23171}{23214}Dozaria it is, then. {23258}{23294}Thanks, Razka. {23295}{23327}I owe you one. {23328}{23387}Just let me know|what you find out. {23388}{23445}Lorit was my friend, too. {23623}{23668}I just don't understand|how the Ravinok {23670}{23716}could have gotten|so far off course. {23717}{23768}Dozaria's light years away {23769}{23803}from where they|should have been. {23804}{23850}The Central Command|always believed {23851}{23887}that the ship was destroyed {23888}{23968}in some sort of escape attempt|by the Bajoran prisoners. {23969}{23993}Maybe. {23994}{24023}Or they could|have had a problem {24023}{24050}with their navigational array {24051}{24111}or run into some kind|of subspace anomaly. {24111}{24156}Hopefully, we'll find the truth. {24225}{24261}We're entering orbit. {24341}{24431}Hmm... I'm reading|severe ionic interference {24432}{24478}in the planet's atmosphere. {24479}{24535}Sensors will be limited,|to say the least. {24535}{24613}I'm picking up|a faint magneton signature. {24614}{24687}It could be residual radiation|from a damaged warp nacelle. {24690}{24710}Shall we beam down? {24711}{24737}I wouldn't advise it. {24738}{24789}All this ionic interference {24790}{24856}will scatter our molecules|halfway around the planet. {24857}{24930}We're going to have to do this|the old-fashioned way. {24931}{24976}It's going to be|a difficult landing. {24977}{25042}I'll take the controls|if you like. {25044}{25090}That'll be the day. {25093}{25128}Going in. {25346}{25401}Invigorating, isn't it? {25402}{25443}A bit sunny, perhaps {25444}{25498}but this heat feels wonderful. {25499}{25525}Only a Cardassian {25526}{25585}would call|this hellhole invigorating. {25586}{25617}Oh, I forgot. {25618}{25705}Compared to us, you Bajorans|are a bit fragile... {25706}{25760}physiologically|speaking, of course. {25761}{25800}Don't worry about me. {26016}{26054}The Ravinok. {26444}{26494}"It's a big step." {26495}{26554}That's all you said? {26556}{26591}That's all. {26592}{26618}You're sure? {26619}{26651}Positive. {26652}{26687}What do you think, Julian? {26688}{26763}It's ambiguous; definitely|open to interpretation. {26764}{26793}But it could have been worse. {26794}{26840}He could have said,|"It's a very big step." {26840}{26906}You didn't say that, did you? {26907}{26961}I don't think so. {26962}{26997}Well, that's good, anyway. {26998}{27039}So what does he do now? {27040}{27063}It's simple. {27064}{27095}He goes to Kasidy {27096}{27149}admits that everything|was his fault {27150}{27186}and pledges his undying love. {27187}{27261}That sounds|a little extreme to me. {27262}{27310}What if he just tells her|he made a mistake? {27312}{27355}That there had been|a misunderstanding {27356}{27391}and that he really|would like her {27392}{27418}to live on the station? {27419}{27451}Could work. {27452}{27495}Assuming that's what you want. {27496}{27595}Captain, I would|think long and hard {27596}{27638}before answering. {27639}{27698}I don't recall asking|your opinion, Quark. {27699}{27726}Well, maybe you should. {27727}{27773}I mean, who knows more|about women than me? {27774}{27806}Everyone. {27807}{27885}You hu-mans... {27887}{27929}all you want to do|is please your women. {27930}{27964}You want them to be your friends {27964}{28001}but we Ferengi know better. {28002}{28050}Women are the enemy {28051}{28103}and we treat them accordingly. {28145}{28244}The key is to never let them|get the upper hand. {28245}{28314}If she says she|doesn't see you enough {28315}{28371}threaten to see her even less. {28372}{28411}If she wants more gifts {28412}{28472}take back the ones|you've already given her. {28473}{28538}It's all about control. {28539}{28574}What if your woman leaves you? {28576}{28644}That's what holosuites are for. {28645}{28749}It's a wonder the Ferengi|reproduce at all. {28751}{28810}So, you never answered|the question. {28812}{28883}Do you want her to stay or not? {28955}{29013}I appreciate all the advice. {29014}{29074}I'll let you know|how it turns out. {29152}{29235}So, just between you and me,|what do you think {29236}{29293}about Kasidy moving|onto the station? {29294}{29364}It's a big step. {29365}{29400}A very big step. {29560}{29617}Oh, she didn't just crash. {29618}{29659}These are phaser hits. {29660}{29727}Looks like she put up|quite a fight. {29728}{29769}And paid for it. {30167}{30224}12 graves. {30225}{30308}There were 18 crew members|and 32 prisoners aboard. {30308}{30373}So where's everybody else? {30416}{30467}First things first. {30522}{30558}What are you doing? {30559}{30671}We need to identify|these bodies. {30672}{30707}I'll help. {30708}{30723}No! {30860}{30922}Our funeral rites|are very strict. {30923}{30967}It would dishonor the dead {30968}{31040}for a non-Cardassian|to view the remains. {31040}{31106}There could be Bajorans|buried here, too. {31107}{31147}No doubt. {31149}{31217}But, if my memory's correct {31218}{31322}Bajorans are much more concerned|with the souls of the dead {31323}{31379}than they are|with the physical remains. {31380}{31445}How did Kai Meressa put it? {31446}{31596}"What remains after death|is but a shell... a sign {31597}{31644}"that the pagh has begun {31645}{31713}its final journey|to the Prophets." {31714}{31830}Please, Major, don't make this|any more difficult for me {31831}{31868}than it already is. {31977}{32029}I have a list|of the missing Bajorans. {32030}{32066}I should be able|to identify them {32068}{32123}from the family imprint|on the earrings. {32124}{32196}I'll work on the Ravinok. {32197}{32238}I should be able|to get something {32239}{32274}from the ship's computers. {32276}{32320}You'll need the command codes. {32321}{32370}Standard Cardassian|military codes {32372}{32408}from six years ago, right? {32409}{32433}Yes. {32434}{32471}Yeah, I got them {32472}{32568}from Bajoran lntelligence|before we left. {32569}{32646}Very good, Major. {32647}{32686}Very good. {33987}{34042}Dukat... {34043}{34090}I was able to reactivate the... {34253}{34288}Dukat. {34452}{34493}What was her name? {34558}{34647}I recognize a Bajoran pledge|bracelet when I see one. {34707}{34779}Her name was Tora... Naprem. {34873}{34924}You see, Major... {34925}{34959}you're not the only one... {34960}{35043}who had a friend|aboard that ship. {35044}{35099}A friend... is that all she was? {35198}{35253}I see. {35254}{35280}Don't worry, Dukat. {35281}{35334}You're not|the only Cardassian officer {35335}{35375}who kept a Bajoran mistress. {35408}{35462}It wasn't like that. {35510}{35556}Naprem and l... {35588}{35643}Ioved each other. {35644}{35711}The head of the occupation... {35712}{35752}in love with a Bajoran? {35827}{35867}Ironic, isn't it? {35868}{35911}Did your wife know? {35950}{35984}No... {35985}{36056}and she's never going|to find out. {36057}{36107}Now, if you don't mind, Major {36108}{36180}I'd rather not talk|about this right now. {36251}{36300}Here are the earrings|you wanted. {36537}{36569}No... {36608}{36642}If Lorit's dead... {36643}{36715}he's not buried here. {36766}{36818}According|to the ship's computers {36819}{36907}the Ravinok was attacked|by two unidentified warships. {36908}{36956}The attackers chased|the Ravinok here {36957}{37010}and must have forced her|to crash land. {37011}{37035}Then the survivors {37036}{37096}could have been captured|and taken away. {37096}{37171}Or they could still be here,|somewhere on this planet. {37172}{37215}Maybe we should go up|in the runabout {37216}{37251}and scan for them from orbit. {37252}{37307}Too much ionic interference. {37308}{37368}The sensors would never be able|to pick up their life signs. {37369}{37412}There may be another way. {37413}{37517}In these conditions,|tricorder readings {37518}{37604}will only be about 12 meters,|but that should be enough. {37605}{37629}Enough for what? {37671}{37742}During the occupation,|Bajoran resistance fighters {37744}{37815}carried subdermal implants|of tritonium isotopes. {37816}{37886}The idea was|that if they were captured {37887}{37921}they could activate the implant {37922}{37988}which would leave|a trail of isotopes {37989}{38026}so they could be|tracked and rescued. {38084}{38139}I think I have something. {38185}{38208}That way. {38209}{38243}Let's go. {38485}{38542}I don't know|why we have to stop. {38543}{38582}For one thing... {38583}{38670}I can't see two meters|in front of us {38671}{38718}and, anyway, we could|both use the rest. {38719}{38788}So stop pacing and sit down. {38954}{38977}What is it?! {38978}{39006}Oh! Oh! I don't know. {39007}{39078}I sat on something.|I sat on something! {39079}{39117}Let me see. {39118}{39162}Oh! {39163}{39197}Oh, get it out. {39198}{39242}Well, keep still {39243}{39278}and let me see what I can do. {39279}{39314}Get it out! {39315}{39367}Oh, this is going to hurt. {39368}{39423}It already hurts. {39426}{39470}Just take it out. {39471}{39532}If you say so. {39533}{39577}Ow! {39578}{39627}Oh... oh... {39628}{39658}Ouch. {39888}{39985}Run this dermal regenerator|over the wound. {40045}{40088}Ooh. {40179}{40215}This isn't funny! {40217}{40270}It is from this angle. {40432}{40514}You know what's even funnier? {40515}{40550}This doesn't work. {40624}{40658}You... {40659}{40687}have to... {40688}{40737}activate it. {40739}{40794}Oh. {40837}{40888}Oh, oh, yes. {40889}{40939}Oh, much better. {41039}{41067}Oh. {41099}{41138}You probably should|eat one of these. {41139}{41182}Ah... {41183}{41304}I haven't had field rations|in a very long time. {41305}{41401}I'm sure they haven't|improved a bit. {41459}{41532}Actually, they've gotten|a little worse. {41611}{41658}Tell me something. {41659}{41693}What? {41694}{41740}Who's Tora Ziyal? {41834}{41926}When I reactivated|the Ravinok's computer, l... {41927}{41962}downloaded the manifest. {41963}{42010}There were two civilians|on board {42011}{42063}in addition to the prisoners|and crew. {42064}{42116}One... was your friend... {42117}{42192}Tora Naprem... {42193}{42234}and the other... {42235}{42351}was Tora Ziyal...|a 13-year-old girl. {42429}{42478}I suppose you wouldn't... {42479}{42591}believe me if I told you|she was Naprem's sister? {42592}{42635}Mm-mm. {42636}{42696}Ziyal is a Cardassian name. {42697}{42754}The way I see it... {42755}{42803}there's only one explanation. {42877}{42905}Ziyal {42906}{42948}was Naprem's daughter,|and you... {42951}{42985}I was her father. {43066}{43112}Well... {43113}{43236}now I know why you're in such|a hurry to find the survivors. {43239}{43283}You're hoping that... {43284}{43307}Oh. {43308}{43410}...she's still alive|and you can rescue her. {43509}{43550}Not quite. {43595}{43666}You see, if my daughter|is still alive {43667}{43770}I'll have no choice|but to kill her. {44025}{44073}You know I'm not going|to let you do it. {44075}{44098}I mean it, Dukat. {44099}{44146}You are not going|to kill that girl. {44147}{44199}Major, why don't you worry|about the other survivors {44200}{44251}and let me worry about Ziyal. {44252}{44278}After all, she is my daughter. {44279}{44316}That's right--|she's your daughter. {44318}{44347}And there is nothing|more important {44348}{44375}to a Cardassian than family. {44376}{44425}At least, that's what your|people are always saying. {44426}{44473}I have a wife|and seven children. {44475}{44498}They are my family. {44499}{44524}They're the ones I must protect. {44525}{44555}Well, you should have|thought of that {44556}{44586}before you got|involved with Naprem. {44587}{44639}You're right.|I should have. {44640}{44680}But I made a mistake-- {44681}{44717}a mistake I intend to correct. {44719}{44782}You don't have to take her|back to Cardassia with you. {44783}{44818}Let me take her to Bajor. {44819}{44871}No one has to know|that you're her father. {44915}{44976}What kind of life|would that be for her? {44977}{45027}Your people have|never exactly welcomed {45028}{45087}half-Cardassian children|into your society. {45088}{45138}That's why I sent her|and her mother away {45139}{45162}in the first place. {45163}{45214}I knew the occupation|was coming to an end {45215}{45256}and that there'd be|no place for them {45257}{45296}on Bajor or Cardassia. {45297}{45343}So you sent them|to a prison camp. {45344}{45406}They were not on their way|to a prison camp! {45407}{45479}The Ravinok was supposed to|rendezvous with a freighter {45480}{45554}which would take Naprem|and Ziyal to Lissepia {45555}{45591}where they could live out|their lives {45592}{45638}in some sort of peace. {45639}{45679}I don't understand. {45680}{45726}If you cared enough|to help Ziyal then {45727}{45765}how can you think|about killing her now? {45766}{45797}Why not just send her|away again? {45798}{45906}Because my position isn't nearly|as stable as it once was. {45907}{45974}By aligning myself|with the new civilian government {45975}{46010}I've made many enemies, enemies {46011}{46067}that wouldn't hesitate|to use Ziyal against me. {46068}{46105}Listen to you! {46106}{46158}It's not your wife|and your seven children {46159}{46195}you're protecting, it's you. {46195}{46245}By protecting myself,|I am protecting them. {46246}{46283}And the only one|who suffers is Ziyal. {46286}{46399}You would kill your own|daughter to save your career. {46400}{46460}I don't understand you. {46461}{46504}You said you loved Naprem. {46505}{46577}I saw you crying at her grave. {46578}{46610}I... {46611}{46665}did love her. {46714}{46833}And when I bury Ziyal,|I'll weep over her grave {46834}{46890}just as I wept over her mother's {46891}{46985}but that will not stop me|from doing what I have to do. {46986}{47044}Do you understand? {47046}{47102}And when the time comes {47103}{47182}I suggest you stay|out of my way. {47411}{47459}Good morning, Jake-o. {47460}{47492}Morning, Dad. {47493}{47528}So... {47529}{47569}what's new? {47570}{47632}Nog and I|ran into Kasidy last night {47633}{47693}over at the, uh,|Vulcan restaurant. {47694}{47756}I guess she's not going to take|that job after all. {47757}{47801}She told you? {47802}{47856}Did she say why? {47857}{47896}She said you didn't|want her to take it. {47959}{48002}Look, Jake... {48004}{48065}sometimes things|between men and women {48066}{48097}can get a little... {48098}{48140}complicated. {48141}{48181}Yeah, maybe, but I|don't think this is {48182}{48216}one of those times. {48217}{48255}It's pretty simple, Dad. {48256}{48279}You're scared. {48280}{48318}What do I have to be afraid of? {48319}{48357}A lot. {48358}{48420}Kasidy's willing to make|a major change in her life {48421}{48451}just to be close to you. {48452}{48530}If things don't work out,|you're going to feel responsible {48532}{48569}and that's scary. {48570}{48641}You figured out|all this by yourself? {48642}{48694}Actually, I talked|with Nog about it. {48743}{48817}You talked to Nog about|my relationship with Kasidy? {48818}{48890}And we think|you have nothing to worry about. {48893}{48985}If Kasidy wants to change jobs,|that's her decision, not yours. {48986}{49051}Same thing if she wants to live|on the station. {49052}{49142}If things don't work out,|they don't work out. {49230}{49285}Have you told|any of this to Kasidy? {49286}{49354}Nog and I thought about it,|but, uh... {49355}{49417}we thought it would be better|if you told her yourself. {49459}{49492}I see. {49540}{49606}So, uh, what's new with you? {49781}{49811}Take a look. {49962}{50009}Breen? {50010}{50057}What are they doing here? {50058}{50090}My tricorder's picking up {50090}{50161}a large concentration|of dilithium in the area. {50162}{50211}They must be using {50212}{50271}the survivors of the|Ravinok to mine the ore. {50272}{50319}It makes perfect sense. {50320}{50402}The Breen homeworld|is a frozen wasteland. {50402}{50469}This place is about 50|degrees too hot for them. {50470}{50557}You approve|of what they're doing?
