					GARAK 
			Of course I'm all right. That's 
			very good news about Kalandra.

	Ezri is starting to realize that she's stumbled onto 
	something here -- a key to what's been troubling 
	Garak.

					EZRI 
			Let's just hope it goes well. 
			The Cardassians will put up a 
			strong fight.

					GARAK 
			Indeed they will. But in the 
			end, they'll lose.

					EZRI
			How can you be so sure?

					GARAK 
			Because they won't be expecting 
			an attack.
				(bitter) 
			They have no idea I broke their 
			code.

	He dabs at the sheen of SWEAT on his forehead, 
	trying to cover his condition.

					GARAK
				(more to himself) 
			All those Cardassians are going 
			to die... because of me...

					EZRI 
			I suppose that's one way to look 
			at it.

	Garak starts to pace, trying to fight back the 
	claustrophobic panic he's feeling.

					GARAK
			What other way is there?

					EZRI 
			That by helping to end the war, 
			you're saving lives.

					GARAK 
			Who will I be saving -- Humans, 
			Klingons, Romulans?

					EZRI 
			And Cardassians.
