[the Klingons are performing a ritual where they have to cut open their hands]
Captain Sisko : We're next.
Admiral Ross : You're kidding.
Captain Sisko : I wish I were.

Gowron : The son of Mogh...
Lt. Commander Worf : Chancellor.
Gowron : [to Martok] They say you've made him part of your house.
Martok : That's true.
Gowron : [after a long look at Worf] Then what is past is past. If Martok considers you his brother, that's all I need to know. Come, I've brought a barrel of the finest bloodwine, and it must be drunk tonight!
[Klingons leave]
Captain Sisko : [to Admiral Ross] I guess we're not invited.

[first lines]
O'Brien : Basically, we stumbled onto it by accident. At Chin'toka, our entire fleet was disabled when the Breen used their energy dampening weapon. 311 ships, Federation, Klingon and Romulan, all lost power.
Sisko : But one didn't. A Bird of Prey called the Ki'tang.
Ross : Why? What was different about the Ki'tang?
O'Brien : We're not really sure. The only thing we can figure is that just prior to the engagement, their chief engineer adjusted the tritium intermix to compensate for a containment problem in the warp core.
Martok : I've ordered every vessel in the Klingon fleet to adjust its reactor in the same way.
Velal : Our vessels are of a different design. Can this technique be adapted to protect them as well?
Sisko : Unfortunately, no. Your ships are still vulnerable and so are ours.
O'Brien : I've sent everything we know about the Breen weapon to the Romulan Ministry of Science and to Starfleet Engineering, but realistically, it's going to take a while before they can figure out a way to protect our ships.
Sisko : Thank you, Mister O'Brien.
