When Garak was captured by the Jem'Hadar in "Rocks and Shoals," he told them a story and claimed to be someone from aboard the U.S.S. Centaur. What did he say?
Thanks, -MMoM

KEEVAN (pained) How many... others are there in your unit?
NOG Nog. Cadet Third Class. Serial Number CX dash nine three seven dash --
GARAK Shut up. (to Keevan) As I tried to explain to your men, my name is Kamar and I am a member of the Cardassian Intelligence Bureau -- what used to be known as the Obsidian Order. A week ago, while performing my duties in the glorious service of the Founders, I was captured by the USS Centaur. I was being held aboard one of their shuttles when we were forced to hide in this dark matter nebula by the unexpected appearance of a Dominion battleship. The shuttle was then hit by--
KEEVAN Excuse me, Mister Kamar -- if that's really your name -- but if you're one of our allies, why were you wearing this?
Keevan produces the Starfleet combadge that the Jem'Hadar took from Garak. Garak reacts with a resigned sigh -- he never really expected to get away with this.

Held aboard a shuttle? That's pretty silly. It's like locking someone up in a speedboat on Alcatraz.

Well, perhaps, if Alcatraz were mobile, armed with killrays, and powered by a matter/antimatter furnace. You aren't going to outrun a starship in a shuttle.
That being said, it is a pretty silly cover story, as was tacitly acknowledged by all concerned.

Oddly enough... I just started watching the episode right before "Rocks and Shoals" this morning, so I'm going to get to see the Centaur this evening

Killrays, Furnaces!?! LOL! Sol, are you sure you aren't Mr. Burns?
Oh and Aban, say "hi" to the Centaur for us!

You'd think that Garak, being a former spy, would have come up with a better story. Hmm.

Hey, cut him some slack. How many times did Bond pretend to be a business man and fail?

the centaur, not being a ship of the line, might have lacked brig facilities.. especially if it was a wreckbash as DS9 TM claims (*ducks*)

She wasn't. And she says "Hi", by the way. She still looks fine.

did you get her drunk and take her to a cheap hotel for some wreckbash play?

No... Andrew told me to say hi to her (back on page 1) since I mentioned I was about to watch a tape of the episode with her in it.
I've always liked that ship. I remember seeing that ep for the first time and going "SWEET!"
I'm a pretty easy date...
