Major Kira Nerys
- [Kira and Dax come across a huge spider-like creature]
- Lieutenant Jadzia Dax: Agh! Whoa... What's that, is that a spider or a dog?
- Major Kira Nerys: Palukoo. The Bajoran moons are full of 'em.
- Lieutenant Jadzia Dax: Oh, I suppose you used to make them your pets and, uh, sing songs about them around the campfire?
- Major Kira Nerys: No - we used to eat 'em.
- Major Kira Nerys: [referring to Li Nalas] Somehow you figured now that he was here... things would be better. You know, he'd... he'd find a way to make things better. Because he was a man who could do that - a great man. I wish I knew where we could find others like him.
- Commander Sisko: Major, there are heroes all over Bajor. I'm sitting with one.
- [Kira and Dax are chased by several Bajoran fighters]
- Major Kira Nerys: There is one problem.
- Lieutenant Jadzia Dax: "One"?
- Major Kira Nerys: The guys flying those ships...
- Lieutenant Jadzia Dax: Yeah?
- Major Kira Nerys: ...used to be the guys flying these ships.
- [Kira and Dax are disguising themselves as Bajoran vedeks]
- Lieutenant Jadzia Dax: So what do you think?
- Major Kira Nerys: Think?
- Lieutenant Jadzia Dax: The nose.
- Major Kira Nerys: Oh! It-it's flattering.
- Lieutenant Jadzia Dax: I'm thinking of keeping it.
- [Dax refuses to leave Kira behind, who has been injured]
- Major Kira Nerys: You're being a fool, Dax.
- Lieutenant Jadzia Dax: Don't talk to your elders that way.
- Lieutenant Jadzia Dax: How did you ever win a war in these things?
- Major Kira Nerys: We were the insects, Lieutenant. The Cardassians were just as allergic as Trills.
- [Kira and Dax are flying an ancient Bajoran raider]
- Lieutenant Jadzia Dax: Navigational sensors aren't functioning.
- Major Kira Nerys: No problem.
- Lieutenant Jadzia Dax: [incredulous] No problem? Big problem. Without navigational sensors...
- Major Kira Nerys: We'll have to fly by the seat of our pants.
- Lieutenant Jadzia Dax: [sarcastically] Great. Seat-of-the-pants technology.
- Major Kira Nerys: You Starfleet types are too dependend on gadgets and gizmos. You lose your natural instincts for survival.
- Lieutenant Jadzia Dax: My natural instincts for survival told me not to climb aboard this thing. I'd say they were functioning pretty well.
- Minister Jaro: Major Kira has long been an outspoken opponent of the provisional government, of reason, of progress, and now finally of me. I am honoured to be included, Major, but I have no intention of allowing you to disrupt the orderly transition of power with these wild charges.
- Major Kira: [showing a padd to first Jaro and then the rest of the chamber] This is a manifest padd from a Kressari vessel. It bears the thumbscan of a Cardassian gul who transferred weapons to that ship. Those weapons were taken by the Kressari to the Circle. This coup will deliver Bajor back into the hands of its greatest enemies. Are you willing to live under Cardassian rule again?
- Minister Jaro: I assure you there is nothing to these accusations.
- Vedek Winn: [Realising where the wind is blowing] Then you should have no objection to an inspection of this manifest, Minister.
- Minister Jaro: Of course not. We'll adjourn for the time being.
- [He starts to leave. Almost no-one else does.]
- Minister Jaro: And let me say that I completely support this investigation and fully intend to co-operate.
