Quotes:

[first lines]
[Capt. Gideon dreaming...]
General Miller: And it is our firm belief that Capt. Gideon is the right man for this job. His reputation--
Drazi Ambassador: We are aware of your captain's reputation. He has taken part in more battles during peacetime than most officers face in a major war. His latest involved one of our captains, who was justifiably upset after losing everything he owned in a card game. Losing *to you*.
Capt. Matthew Gideon: He bet everything he had on a bluff. Not my fault.
