Dialogue
We are receiving a transmission from Earth. New Orleans, to be precise. It appears to be Captain Sisko. Patching through.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
Commander, It’s good to see you. I’ve just received intel regarding the recent events in Cardassia. It made for troublesome reading to say the least.
Objective ID
141,998,626
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
The Cardassians and the Romulans have forged an alliance. Deep Space Nine has fallen to the hands of the Dominion. And for the third strike, my own officers are missing in action.
Objective ID
141,998,626
Phase

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
All of this… all of it, simply because I couldn’t spot a deception that was right under my nose. I should have known that Jack… that Admiral Wardlow was a Changeling.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
The real Jack Wardlow is still missing, presumed dead. This happened on my watch, Commander. I’m sure you understand when I say that I must make things right.

Of course, captain. What can we do to help?

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
That’s just what I wanted to hear. If you’re available, I’d appreciate it if you could come to Earth and pick me up. It’s time to take back control of the situation.
Objective ID

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
I’ll be waiting for you at my father’s restaurant, Sisko’s Creole Kitchen. You’ll find it in the French Quarter of New Orleans. Coordinates incoming.

Phase

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
Now listen to me, son. Listen very carefully. You still have a long career ahead of you in Starfleet. One that I can make very uncomfortable. Almost unbearable, if that’s how you want to play this out.
Objective ID

Benjamin Sisko

I’m warning you here and now that you are messing with the wrong man under the wrong circumstances.

Phase

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
I suggest that you check this false sense of superiority and apologize before I speak with your Admiral and have you scrubbing out holodecks for the rest of your career. Do you understand me?
Objective ID

Character
Davis
Dialogue
I… uhm… yes, sir. I apologize for this transgression. I… I don’t know what came over me.

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
These are stressful times. It’s only natural for your tensions to get the best of you. But you must not, under any circumstances, direct them towards your colleagues. Especially your superiors.

Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
You are a Starfleet officer! It’s time to start acting like one.

Character
Davis
Dialogue
Yes, sir. I’ve cleared the Independent’s ship for docking. Approach when ready.

Incoming transmission from Starbase 80. They must be checking for clearance.

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
They may have stripped me of my command, but I’m still a Starfleet officer. That should be more than enough clearance. On-screen.

Davis
Dialogue
Independent vessel, identify yourself. Our records show that your vessel does not retain sufficient clearance to dock.

Dialogue
This is Captain Benjamin Sisko. The Independent here is acting as my armed escort in these dangerous times. I’ve come to speak with–…

Phase

Character
Davis
Dialogue
“Captain” you say? Sir, I am well aware of who you are. You’re Benjamin Sisko. The almighty “Emissary”. Beacon of hope to the Bajorans. Commander of Deep Space Nine.

Phase

Character
Davis
Dialogue
Except, you’re none of those things anymore. I assume that you’re here to speak to the Admiral. As his adjutant, I am obliged to inform you that he is too occupied to speak with the likes of you.

Now you listen here–…

Captain Sisko, given your current position, I would advise that your next words are chosen carefully.

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
Thank you for the escort, Commander. Under different circumstances, I’d recommend the jambalaya, but I’m afraid that time isn’t on our side.

What is our first task?
Objective ID
1,866,637,609
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
Unfortunately, there is some bureaucratic red tape that must be dealt with before we can proceed. I need to speak with Starfleet and have my position reinstated in light of the Changeling’s actions.
Objective ID
1,866,637,609
Phase

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
Our first port of call is Federation Starbase 80, located nearby in the Xerxes system.
Objective ID
1,866,637,609
Phase

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
With Wardlow missing in action, one Admiral Tennings will be inheriting his duties. We need to meet with Tennings and have my rank and command reinstated.
Objective ID

Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
Now listen to me, son… Lieutenant Davis, is it? I understand if you feel angry or disappointed in me for what happened out there. You have every right to feel that way.
Objective ID
394,617,352
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
But I need you to understand that there is not one enlisted officer in Starfleet who is infallible. We are all capable of failure. It is how we respond to and learn from these failures that makes us who we are.
Objective ID
394,617,352
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
There will be a moment in time, not too far from now, where you will find yourself in a similar situation to mine. A time when your decisions and actions draw the ire of your friends and colleagues.
Objective ID
394,617,352
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
I have identified a means to rectify the consequences of my mistakes. But I cannot do this alone. I need to rely on the strength of my colleagues and my crew. Just as you will some day.
Objective ID
394,617,352
Phase

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
Now, I am asking you again – kindly grant us clearance and let the Commander here dock in peace.

… Very well. I’ve cleared the Independent’s ship for docking. Approach when ready.

Captain, do you wish to rest before we make our journey back to New Orleans?
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
We’re not going to New Orleans. I refuse to remain idle while my station is occupied by hostile forces and my people are missing.

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
We’re going to find the Defiant. We’re going to find my crew. And we’re going to rip Deep Space Nine from the Dominion’s hands by any means necessary.

Tennings
Dialogue
Well if it isn’t Ben Sisko. Welcome to my outpost! I see that you’ve already had to deal with the guard dog.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
Indeed. But don’t worry, I think I got through to him in the end. Quite a temper though.
Objective ID
737,983,512
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Tennings
Dialogue
Pay no attention to young Davis. He’s just a little… stressed at the moment. He lost his brother during the ambush in Cardassia. A damn fine lad he was, too.
Objective ID
737,983,512
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
It’s all starting to make a little more sense now. He must blame me for allowing the ambush to happen.
Objective ID

Tennings
Dialogue
Well… let’s not dwell on such things. What can I do for you?
Objective ID

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
Admiral Tennings, I’ve come to formally request reinstatement of my full rank and command of Deep Space Nine.
Objective ID
737,983,512
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Tennings
Dialogue
Oh, come on, Ben. You know I can’t do that. Not after what happened with Wardlow. Do you know how many strings I had to pull to convince them that you weren’t a Changeling too?
Objective ID
737,983,512
Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Tennings
Dialogue
And besides, how can I reinstate command of Deep Space Nine to you when the Dominion control it now?
Objective ID
737,983,512
Phase

Character
Benjamin Sisko
Dialogue
That’s the whole point, Admiral – I plan on taking that control back once and for all.
Objective ID

Phase
dialogue_start
Character
Tennings
Dialogue
No. I’m sorry Ben, but no. We’ve allowed you to operate via your own methods for long enough. Return home and let Starfleet handle this. We’ll be back in touch once this has all cleared up.

But you don’t understand–…

That’s an order, Mr. Sisko. You will leave this starbase at once and prepare for reassignment.
