	Quark: "It's not about profit anymore, it's about respect." Rom: "It is?" Quark: "See the way they look at me now. I’m not just some mean old Ferengi trying to take their money, I am 'Quark, slayer of Klingons'. I’ve struck a blow for Ferengi everywhere." Rom: "But what about Kozak’s family? What if they come looking for revenge?" Quark: "If that happens, I’ll stand up, look them straight in the eye... and offer them a bribe."
	Gowron: (in disbelief) "A brave Ferengi, who would have thought it possible?"
	(Quark and D'Ghor prepare to duel, but as soon as D'Ghor takes his first swing, Quark throws down his batleth) Quark: "Go ahead. Kill me. That's why I'm here, isn't it, to be killed? Well, here I am, so go ahead and do it. (continuing, to Council) You all want me to pick up that sword and try to fight him, don't you? But I don't have a chance and you know it. You only want me to put up a fight so your precious honor will be satisfied. Well, I'm not going to make it easy for you. Having me fight D'Ghor is nothing more than an execution. So if that's what you want, that's what you're going to get: an execution. No honor, no glory. (to D'Ghor) And when you tell your children and your grandchildren the glorious story of how you rose to power and took Grilka's house from her, I hope you remember to tell them how you heroically killed an unarmed Ferengi half your size." D'Ghor: "Whatever you say, Ferengi."
	Grilka: "Thank you, Quark. You may have saved my family." Quark: "Well, it is the House of Quark, after all." Grilka: "I am very grateful for all you have done, Quark. That's why I'm going to let you take your hand off my thigh instead of shattering every bone in your body."
	Grilka: "You have given me back my House and my family name. How can I repay you?" Quark: "I would like a divorce, please. No offense." Grilka: "None taken."
	Quark: "I am Quark, son of Keldar, and I have come to answer the challenge of D'Ghor, son of... whatever."
	Quark: "Rule of Acquisition Number 286: 'When Morn leaves, it's over.'" Rom: "There's no such rule like that!" Quark: "There should be!"
	Grilka: "So you lied to station security, to your customers, and to D'Ghor. You must be quite a liar." Quark: "It's a gift."
	Grilka: "Do you mean D'Ghor has been scheming and plotting like a Fe–" Quark: (proudly) "Like a Ferengi!"
	Gowron: "The House of Kozak is gone... for the time being, it will be known as..." Quark: "Quark." Gowron: "Quirk..." Quark: "Quark!" Gowron: "The House of Quark."
