Garak on Empok Nor

[Shada Dukal]

I love that episode, so dark and creepy, invoking old fears and grudges, reopening the old wounds from the Border Wars, reminding that things don’t always come up roses.

Garak was awesome, so ominous and unpredictable, a real fighter, not a pansy that everyone would like to invite for dinner.

I particularly like the moment when he explains the difference between a coil spanner and a flux coupler.

"He asked me to get a coil spanner for him, I just turned my back for a second."
"That's a shame. And the worst part of it is, this isn't a coil spanner." (stabs Amaro) "It's a flux coupler."
