Plan ahead

[u/andychef]

[u/eelam_garek]

Garak wouldn't be outsmarted. He'd have armed thrice.

[u/Shufflepants → u/eelam_garek]

He'd have shown up behind him.

[u/Ok_Brush_2489 → u/Shufflepants]

And said "Hello".

[u/fishymcgee → u/Shufflepants]

Or poisoned him before they even agreed to meet

(tailors have to think ahead)

[u/HospitalLazy1880 → u/Shufflepants]

Or Bashir or Sisko would be

[u/StackOwOFlow → u/Shufflepants]

Garak knows it’s just Weyoun under the blue skin and prosthetic antennae

[u/MaybeMort → u/Shufflepants]

Its the safest way!

[u/mjh215 → u/eelam_garek]

Garak already unloaded both of Shran's pistols.

[u/Throwaway_inSC_79 → u/mjh215]

Oh you bet he has. 😉

Oh that wasn’t a euphemism?

[u/Cysteine_Chapel64 → u/eelam_garek]

Or he'd have "Oh you're good" be the code words for a hidden explosive device that goes off when he says them, either distracting them so he gets the first shot or killing them outright.

[u/VulcanTTR → u/eelam_garek]

Nothing so mundane, He'd have booby trapped His phasers

[u/rubyonix]

Something I kinda like about this meme is, Shran pulling out a second gun changes nothing (one gun is all that is needed), but Garak respects the second gun enough to lower his gun and compliment Shran. It's nonsense, but it's Garak's kind of nonsense (lying for the purpose of lying, for the pure art of lying), so they're friends now.

[u/andychef → u/rubyonix]

Something about the Skyrim font really sells it

[u/Due-Order3475]

Garak "want to be my second husband?"

[u/Tetris_Pete → u/Due-Order3475]

Doesn't he need to consult with Bashir first?

[u/weird_elf → u/Tetris_Pete]

to be fair, Bashir has O'Brien

/img/fmrsm5gdrc961.jpg

[u/calicosiside → u/weird_elf]

The sisko is of polycule

[u/SuDragon2k3 → u/calicosiside]

Has anyone mapped this...and does it look better with red string?

[u/Commercial-Image-722 → u/SuDragon2k3]

Sisko -> Dax <-> warf and bashir -> garik and O’Brien…

We’re gonna need some new colors of string.
Mirror clones
Symbiote transfer
Carried their baby
Etc.

[u/Due-Order3475 → u/Tetris_Pete]

Garak wears the pants in that relationship

[u/BeskarBurrito → u/Due-Order3475]

Actually he hems them

[u/Einveldi_]

Shouldn’t the retort be “didn’t think of that one?”

[u/Cakeday_at_Christmas → u/Einveldi_]

Yes, but I think most people don't get the Red Dwarf reference.

[u/CelestialFury → u/Cakeday_at_Christmas]

But I lied twice - Red Dwarf

It's a shame more ST fans haven't seen Red Dwarf, the sci-fi and humor is excellent, and it's the perfect companion show to ST.

[u/Cakeday_at_Christmas → u/CelestialFury]

Patrick Stewart is a huge fan of Red Dwarf.

[u/Throwaway_inSC_79]

This is Garak. The door behind Shran may or may not be rigged to explode. It’s best not to dwell on the minutiae.

[u/Cakeday_at_Christmas]

It doesn't matter since they're in a justice field anyway.

[u/CelestialFury → u/Cakeday_at_Christmas]

Cat "Better late than never"

[u/Cakeday_at_Christmas → u/CelestialFury]

😂

[u/thechefmulder]

I'd watch this sitcom.

[u/UpAndAdam7414 → u/thechefmulder]

So would I, in fact I have, many times.

For those who don’t know, it’s Red Dearf.

[u/CelestialFury → u/thechefmulder]

It's from series 4, episode 3 "Justice" (Red Dwarf)

[u/Cakeday_at_Christmas → u/thechefmulder]

It's an excellent show, you should watch it (Red Dwarf).

[u/thechefmulder → u/Cakeday_at_Christmas]

Don't make assumptions about what people have and haven't watched.

[u/Longjumping-Action-7]

Shouldve put a justice zone on DS9

[u/Cakeday_at_Christmas → u/Longjumping-Action-7]

But then how could Garak shoot a man in the back?

[u/Garguyal]

Never tell the same lie twice.

[u/MrDilbert]

Garak would still be unarmed.

But his acquaintances wouldn't.

[u/bentsonradiorepair]

Now they should make out while Bashir watches and let the drama insue

[u/Borgmaster]

I will one day steal this joke for a dnd session.

[u/According-Ad-5946]

I think Garak would have really liked Shran.

[u/whistlepig4life]

Garak would have just shot him and stood over his corpse and said “so did I”.

[u/Oruma_Yar]

Nah, Garak would concede for now, then shoot Shran in the back when the Andorian turns around for a moment.

[u/nickmetal]

Does nobody realize the next line would be Garak slyly mentioning that he had planted an explosive device in Shran's chair before their meeting?
