Statistical Probabilities è un Episodio di Deep Space Nine.
Trama
Data Stellare Sconosciuta: Ora che il passato di Bashir è stato rivelato, gli viene richiesto di lavorare con un gruppo di persone che, come lui, hanno subito interventi genetici.
Bashir si trova quindi con alcune persone che, differentemente da lui, sono rimaste nell'istituto dove ha subito l'intervento, ognuna delle quali presenta una caratteristica predominante: Jack (aggressivo), Lauren (sensuale), Patrick (frivolo), e Sarina (timida).
Si spera che Bashir possa aiutare queste persone ad inserirsi normalmente nella società.
Sezioni
Note
- Ron Moore ha soprannominato il gruppo di persone modificate geneticamente Jack Pack.
47
- Bashir mostra a Sisko un PADD intitolato «Analysis Mode - 47».
- Sul PADD con la scheda di Bashir che ha in mano Lauren c'è il numero 4774.
YATI
- Probabilmente i mutanti sono la cosa più simile agli dei, tuttavia nessuno di loro conosce la Teoria del Caos: come mai ci mettono giorni a scoprire che ogni piccolo imprevisto inficia la più grande e precisa delle loro previsioni? E come mai a nessun altro su Deep Space Nine o al Comando della Flotta viene in mente questa obiezione?
Versione italiana
- Nei sottotitoli di Canal Jimmy Sarina viene chiamata Serena.
Citazioni
Weyoun: Odo...
Odo: Yes, I know, I honor you with my presence!
Sisko: Surrender is not an option. I'm happy to hear your group's advice on how to win this war... I don't need advice on how to lose it.
Bashir: We're not gods.
Jack: Maybe not, but we're the next best thing.
Sisko: I don't care if odds are against us. If we're going to lose, then we're going to go down fighting, so that when our descendants someday rise up against the Dominion, they'll know what they're made of.
Scene tagliate
- Ecco com'era stata pensata la scena in cui Bashir chiede a Sarina di essere liberato dalle corde. La prima e le ultime due battute di Bashir, con piccole variazioni, sono quelle dette nell'episodio.
BASHIR Untie me. Please. (no response) Sarina. She says nothing. Frustrated, Bashir struggles to free himself. After a few beats, he's surprised to hear a small, tremulous voice -- SARINA I'm sorry. Bashir reacts to the first words he's ever heard her speak, realizing that she must be conflicted if she's driven to utter them. She has to pull herself up from the deep well she's lived in for so many years -- she doesn't know how to say what she feels, she doesn't even know what she feels. SARINA I can't untie you. BASHIR (gently) Yes, you can. If you think it's the right thing to do. SARINA (at a loss) I don't know... BASHIR I think you do. I think that's why you spoke to me just now. You could've stayed quiet, but you didn't. And the only reason I can think of is that you don't want to have the deaths of so many people on your hands. SARINA Jack would be mad. Bashir realizes something about her that he's been sensing all along -- seeing an opening, he eases his way toward it. BASHIR (gently) Yes, he would. And I know you don't want that to happen. Bashir sees something flicker across her features, and he knows what he's thinking is true -- BASHIR I've seen the way you look at him when you think no one is watching. I know how much you care about him. Sarina looks down, trying to shut out his words. Emotion is so alien to her that it's painful for her to feel so exposed. BASHIR Sarina, if you don't let me stop them, they're going to be arrested and charged with treason. Do you know what that means? You'll never see any of them again. (beat) You'll never see Jack again. She looks up, stricken by this thought. Bashir holds her gaze, says nothing more. He knows he has to let her sit with this for a moment and decide what she wants to do. Off Sarina's face as we wonder what she'll do...
Script
- Questa è l'estrapolazione dallo script dell'intero discorso di Damar: "Fellow citizens, these are great days for Cardassia. Together with our Dominion allies, we have given our enemies cause to fear us once more. The war with the Federation accomplished our goals. Cardassia is strong again, an empire We are safe behind secure borders, and no one will ever dare attack us again. From this position of strength, we are poised to take another bold step that will insure our future. [pausa d'effetto] Peace. [pausa lunga] It is time to bring an end to this war with the Federation. It is time for us to rebuild on the foundation of strength we have laid. [pausa] The sons of Cardassia shed their blood to defend their home. Their sacrifice must not be in vain. The peace we seek will honor their memory, and preserve the gains for which they gave their lives. [pausa] Today I challenge the Federation to answer my call for peace. I'm ready at any time to meet with its representatives to discuss how we can bring an end to hostilities. As your leader, I pledge that I will do everything in my power to protect Cardassia and allow us to move forward into a new era. [pausa] This I vow with my life's blood. For my sons... For all our sons."
- Quando era stato trasmesso per la prima volta questo l'episodio era circolato un brano dello script su Internet:
DAMAR (filtered) Together with our Dominion allies, we have given our enemies cause to fear us once more. O'BRIEN (dry) Can't argue with that. In the background, Lauren gets up and moves so she can see the screen. For some reason, she too is intrigued by Damar's speech. DAMAR (filtered, continuing) The war with the Federation accomplished our goals. Now Jack emerges from his room to get a closer look, as if drawn by the sound of Damar's voice. LAUREN Who is he? BASHIR Damar -- the new head of the Cardassian Government. DAMAR (filtered) We are safe behind secure borders, and no one will dare attack us again. PATRICK (with sympathy) Whoever he is, he's sad. LAUREN Ashamed is more like it. Bashir's never seen the group focus on anything before, and it intrigues him. DAMAR (filtered) The time has come for us to take another bold step that will ensure our future. (beat) Peace. Damar lets this hang in the air for a beat. Bashir and O'Brien exchange looks -- this is better than a declaration of redoubled hostilities, but they're not ready to take Damar at face value. LAUREN Looks like he hasn't slept in days. JACK Me thought I heard a voice cry "Sleep No More! Damar does murder sleep!" O'BRIEN Quiet. Bashir stops O'Brien before he says any more -- we see that the Doctor wants to hear what they have to say. DAMAR (filtered) It is time to bring an end to this war with the Federation. LAUREN (realizing) He killed someone. PATRICK (nodding) Someone close to him. Bashir and O'Brien don't know what to make of their comments. DAMAR (filtered) It is time for us to rebuild on the foundation of strength we have laid. JACK (Pointing at Damar) Pretender! He doesn't belong to the throne and he knows it! DAMAR (filtered) Today I challenge the Federation to answer my call for peace. LAUREN He's caught up in something he can't control... DAMAR (filtered) I'm ready at any time to meet with its representitives to discuss how we can bring an end to hostilities. JACK Someone's making him say all this. Someone he hates almost as much as he fears. DAMAR (filtered) I pledge that I will do everything in my power to protect Cardassia and allow us to move forward into a new era. (beat) This I vow with my life's blood. For my sons... For all our sons. And with that, the transmission ENDS and the screen returns to the Cardassian emblem. JACK Not bad, not bad at all. It's epic, really. The Pretender who kills the King and seizes the throne. LAUREN Not the King, he's still alive. JACK Right. That explains the guilt. PATRICK The Queen maybe? (even better) Or a Princess? JACK Yes... Yes! And now the Pretender finds himself in a league with... a Dark Knight he can't control. Bashir and O'Brien turn and look at each other, wondering how these three could have gleaned all this from Damar's speech. Off their puzzled features... EXT. SPACE - DEEP SPACE NINE (OPTICAL) Re-establishing. INT. OPS where an excited Bashir is telling Dax and Kira what happened. O'Brien looks from his console. BASHIR It was amazing. They pieced together the entire story of how Damar came to power just by watching his speech. DAX Are you sure you're not reading to much into it? BASHIR Don't you see? Weyoun is the Dark Knight, Gul Dukat is the deposed King, Damar is the Pretender to the throne, and Ziyal is the innocent princess he murdered. Now the Pretender is wracked with guilt over what he did, but he can't turn his back. KIRA It pretty much hangs together. BASHIR You were there, Chief. You saw what happened. O'BRIEN It was weird, I have to admit. BASHIR To them it was like some sort of Shakespearean tragedy. They were fascinated by the whole thing. They started bombarding me with questions about Cardassia and the war. I've never seen them so engaged. DAX (sly) And you're going to try to keep them 'engaged'? BASHIR I don't know if I can; I'm running out of material. KIRA What do you mean? BASHIR They've already gone through everything the library has on Cardassia and the Dominion. Sisko ENTERS his office -- something's on his mind and he can't figure out how he feels about it. SISKO Roll out the red carpet. O'BRIEN Visitors, sir? SISKO (crossing down) Starfleet has agreed to enter into peace negotiations with the Dominion. Damar and Weyoun will be arriving in the morning. (grimacing) I'm the lucky one who gets to sit across the table and try to keep from throttling them. BASHIR That's great. Sisko shoots him a look -- O'BRIEN I don't know. It's hard to believe the Dominion really wants peace. KIRA I wouldn't be surprised if they were just stalling for time. SISKO Maybe. I guess we'll find out. BASHIR Sir, is there any way I can get a transcript of the negotiations? SISKO You can do better than that. Bashir is skeptical. SISKO (continuing) The Dominion is insisting that the proceedings be holo-recorded so that everyone can see their desire for peace is sincere. BASHIR Perfect. And with that, Bashir turns and heads for the door. Sisko watches him go, wondering what that was all about. DAX Look on the bright side, Benjamin. If you hurt somebody, everyone will be able to see what made you snap. Off Sisko's face as he considers this...

BASHIR Did any of you know who Damar was before today? JACK No, but it's obvious who he is. The Pretender who killed the king and seized the throne. LAUREN Not the king, he's still alive. PATRICK The queen maybe? (even better) Or a princess. BASHIR Yes. Gul Dukat's daughter. Her name was Ziyal. JACK And now the Pretender finds himself in league with a... a Dark Knight he can't control. O'BRIEN (to Bashir) Weyoun? Bashir and O'Brien look at each other, wondering how the hell these three could have gleaned all this from Damar's speech. JACK Not a bad story. It's epic really. (to Bashir) What else can you tell us? Off this moment... 19 OMITTED 20 INT. OPS where an excited Bashir is telling Dax and Kira what happened. BASHIR It was amazing.

Weyoun is the Dark Knight, Gul Dukat is the deposed King, Damar is the Pretender to the throne, and Ziyal is the innocent Princess he murdered.

BASHIR (nods) They were fascinated by the whole thing, started bombarding me with questions about Cardassia and the war. I've never seen them so engaged. DAX And you want to keep them engaged? BASHIR I'm going to try, but I'm running out of material. KIRA What do you mean? BASHIR They've already gone through everything the computer has on Cardassia and the Dominion. Sisko ENTERS from his office -- something's on his mind and he can't figure out how he feels about it. SISKO Roll out the red carpet. DAX Visitors? SISKO (crossing down) Starfleet has agreed to listen to what Damar has to say. He and Weyoun will be arriving in the morning. (grimacing) I'm the lucky one who gets to sit across the table from them. BASHIR This is great. Sisko shoots him a look -- KIRA It's hard to believe the Dominion really wants peace. I wouldn't be surprised if they were just stalling for time in order to regroup. BASHIR Sir, is there any way I can get a transcript of the negotiations? SISKO You can do better than that. (skeptical) The Dominion insisted on recording the proceedings so everyone can see that their desire for peace is sincere. BASHIR Perfect. And with that, Bashir turns and heads for the door. Sisko watches him go, wondering what that was all about. DAX You shouldn't've agreed to that, Benjamin. (off his look) Now you're going to have to be on your best behavior. Off Sisko's face as he considers this...
