Affliction (2005)

John Schuck: Antaak

Quotes 

• Dr. Phlox : When I asked you to bring me a subject for dissection, I assumed he'd already be dead.

  General K'Vagh : He won't be alive much longer.

  Dr. Phlox : [Antaak approaches the patient with a hypospray, but Phlox stops him]  What do you think you're doing?

  Antaak : Euthanizing him.

  Dr. Phlox : Out of the question! I thought you were committed to saving lives.

  Antaak : It is more honorable to give one's life to medical research than to die for no purpose!

  Dr. Phlox : That choice is not ours to make!

  General K'Vagh : [K'Vagh draws his disrupter and shoots the patient]  Proceed.

• Dr. Phlox : Why didn't you simply ask for our help? Starfleet and Denobula would have provided you with all the specialists you'd need.

  Antaak : You don't understand the Klingon way, Doctor. To ask for assistance would make us look weak in the eyes of our enemies. It could even incite rebellion.

• Dr. Phlox : We should contact the IME. They may have seen this mutation before. I'm certain they'll be willing to share their database with us. I know of a few... indirect channels. No one would have to know.

  Antaak : There's no reason to contact them. We've acquired their entire database.

  [he hands Phlox a data rod] 

  Dr. Phlox : You stole it?

  Antaak : Medical research isn't a priority for the High Council. I am forced to obtain information however I can.

  Dr. Phlox : That doesn't sound very honorable.

  Antaak : Given the choice between honor and saving lives, I choose the latter.

• Antaak : You must forgive the General's conduct. The warrior caste has little use for social protocols.

• Antaak : Boshar! Feeding time is over. Go back!
