Quotes 

• Commander Shran : Tell Archer that's *two* he owes me!

• Commander Shran : Commander Tucker. You have a poor choice of friends.

• Vulcan Ambassador Soval : [Shran is torturing Sovla by lowering his emotional suppression]  Let me out of here!

  Commander Shran : I can't. I'm sorry. Not yet.

  Vulcan Ambassador Soval : [roaring]  I'll tear the antennae from your skull!

  Commander Shran : If this interrogation continues, your suppression system could be permanently damaged. Tell me what I want to know!

  Vulcan Ambassador Soval : Aren't you enjoying this, Commander? Have you imagined having me in this chair many times?

  Commander Shran : That's not far from the truth. But after our rather lengthy peace talks, I came to trust you.

  Vulcan Ambassador Soval : Then trust me now!

  Commander Shran : You would never betray your people!

  Vulcan Ambassador Soval : I'm trying to save them!

  Commander Shran : Where is your fleet?

  Vulcan Ambassador Soval : Do you know the story of Nirak?

  Commander Shran : What?

  Vulcan Ambassador Soval : He was a soldier who lived a long time ago. He was standing watch over the gates of the city of Gol and he saw a cloud on the horizon moving toward him. He thought it was a sandstorm, so he told no one. It was an army. They destroyed the city, but they let Nirak live. His name now means "fool" in our language, just as yours will in Andorian!

• Commander Shran : You people are so used to lying, you don't even tell the truth to each other!

• Commander Shran : I just spoke with the Imperial Guard. They're redeploying our forces.

  Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III : [referring to Soval]  Now you believe him. What changed your mind?

  Commander Shran : A lesser man would have told me what I wanted to hear, even if it wasn't true. There's been too much suspicion, too many lies, on both sides.
