Garak is a simple tailor. He resolves an impossible situation in the least tailorly way possible yet somehow maintains plausible deniability.
I remember one episode when he is not on drugs, and starts telling truths to everybody. That one explains him.
Well no actually. In that episode he tells Bashir at least three different contradictory stories. Though right before Garrak thinks he's about to die he tells Bashir that he was really ashamed because he fucked over his best friend and we're lead to believe this is the actual final truth. Then you later find out the friend's name he gave Bashir was actually just Garrak's own first name and that every story Garrak told was a likely a complete fabrication. In the end we know nothing more definitive about him or why he's at the station.
We know a lot more about him. Just not about his past.
Everything he said was true, especially the lies.
His takedown of Ezri articulates exactly how I felt about the character shift in general
Lol not in drugs that took me a second to comprehend but your a totally right.
the least tailorly way possible
I don't know, I think he usually finds a way to thread the needle.
Tbh, Garak is just: Kingsman, but make it star trek.
