TAIN: You’re not my son.
GARAK: Father. Father, you’re dying. For once in your life, speak the truth.
TAIN: I should have killed your mother before you were born. You have always been a weakness I can’t afford.
GARAK: So you’ve told me, many times. Listen, Enabran. All I ask is that for this moment, let me be your son.
[ID: Six gifs from the show Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. They show Elim Garak and Enabran Tain. In the first, third, fourth, and sixth gif, Tain is shown from the shoulders up and is laying down on a cot. Tain looks very ill as he speaks with Garak. In the second and fifth gif, Garak is shown from the shoulders up next to Tain’s cot. Garak speaks to Tain with a melancholic expression. The dialogue is as follows: Tain: Elim… Remember that day, in the country? You must have been almost five. // Garak: How can I forget it? It was the only day. // Tain: I can still see you on the back of that riding hound. // Tain: You must have fallen off a dozen times… But you never gave up. // Garak: I remember limping home. You held my hand. // Tain: I was very proud of you… that day. End ID.]
