Quark: I want you to try something for me. Take a sip of this.
Garak: What is it?
Quark: A human drink. It’s called root beer.
Garak: Uh, I don’t know…
Quark: Come on, aren’t you just a little bit curious?
[Garak sighs, takes a sip and gags]
Quark: What do you think?
Garak: It’s vile!
Quark: I know. It’s so bubbly, and cloying, and happy.
Garak: Just like the Federation.
Quark: But you know what’s really frightening? If you drink enough of it, you begin to like it.
Garak: It’s insidious!
Quark: Just like the Federation.
