Sisko, Kira, Dax, O'Brien and the BASHIR CHANGELING watches it on the wall monitor. DUKAT (continues, on monitor) And now that we are joined together, equal partners in all endeavors, the only people with anything to fear... will be our enemies. Sisko reacts to Dukat's threat. DUKAT (continues, on the monitor) My oldest son's birthday is in five days. To him and to Cardassians everywhere, I make the following pledge. By the time his birthday dawns, there will not be a single Klingon alive in Cardassian territory... or a single Maquis colony left inside our borders. 26 OMITTED 27 CLOSE ON KIRA as she reacts to Dukat's naked imperialistic ambition. She knew Cardassia the last time it was strong, and she's not looking forward to those days coming back again. DUKAT (continues, on the monitor) Cardassia will be made whole. All that we have lost will be ours again. And anyone who stands in our way will be destroyed.
