    One of the best lines was missed here- [In referring to the Klingons who assaulted him] "I managed to get off several cutting remarks which no doubt did serious damage to their egos." Thanks to your ministrations I am almost fully healed but the damage I did will last a lifetime."

I was so happy to see a character like this too in a show, I've become so done with modern TV and acting, that his character was 110% a breath of fresh air. Most people loved Quark, I loved Garak.

    To me, Garak was and still is the most complex recurring character in history of Star Trek and, to be perfectly honest, quite probably the most mysterious character in history of Star Trek in general. While all the time he keeps revealing various things about himself in virtually every single episode he appeared in, we never got to learn even 1% of who and what he really was and is. His past on Cardassia was in total darkness to everyone, not even sure that Gul Dukat himself knew most of it, let alone we have no idea what exactly was he doing before he came to Deep Space 9. Nor we ever learned the real reasons why he escaped from Cardassia and defected to Federation in the first place. It was heavily implied many times that he defected because Gul Dukat had orchastrated a plot to eliminate and probably execute him, but this was never proven beyond reasonable doubt, other than the fact that he and Dukat indeed has a long standing personal feud which neither of them ever hid from enybody, and, knowing Garak, could have easily been not true. Not to mention that, despite his obvious defection, he never officially joined Federation in any capacity, except as boarder on Deep Space 9, so his true alliances were never revealed.

    When Garak is selling that "overheard" line on Sisko's bridge... Watch Odo with the silent arm cross behind him. Odo's body language is 100% "Garak is full of crap... I just can't prove it... yet...!"

Yeah they are annoyed at each other." Next shock. "He wants me for WHAT? And he's MARRIED?" Then she nods. "The spy tells the truth this time."

    "Are you sure that's the point, Doctor?" "Of course, what else could it be?" "That you should never tell the same lie twice." - For me this is the quintessential line that sums up his character. He is a Cardassian to the bone. A cynic, a realist, and someone who has absolutely no use for Federation optimism or morality. He sees everything from a Cardassian point of view and draws his own conclusions.

    The best part when Julian talks to Garak for the first time to really try to find out if Garak is who everybody suspects really is, he lies and misdirects but he still reveals the truth when he says he could be an outcast spy despite clearly denying it a moment later. Its such great writing and acting that it goes unnoticed at the beginning but becomes a very real part of his character towards the end.

    Me too. And this is what is weird to me -- I generally hate that kind of partisan utilitarian ethics. But it's just so perfectly done, I absolutely love that episode. And Garak is the one who made it perfect. He whips up genuine moral indignation about one of the most ruthless things ever done on the show AND proves that Sisko is just a hypocrite if he looks at it any other way.
