Comparison shot (exact framing a hair off):
Inspirational credit to AdmiralPatrick@dubvee.org for their Dark Matter “Especially” crossover wherin I found the existing template a bit fuzzy. Of course, seeing as there’s no actual official HD footage to work off of (thanks, Paramount), the newer shots taken are at least more detailed.
Here is a 2x2 grid template that I had made from a fan remaster:
Though the expression and body language in your third panel is arguably more fitting for the format
Looking good.
Funny thing is, panel 3 is actually earlier in the scene right as Garak sits down. The bewildered look the result of seeing him up and about so soon after removing the device.
Yeah, my third panel is taken from when Bashir was actually saying that line. But despite that technically being more accurate to the source material, I think that is not all that necessary when creating a meme. I think your third panel is better at depicting a sort of “caught off-guard” expression that fits with the tone of the meme, whereas my third panel is more of a knowing “we’re both in on the joke” expression.
It definitely works, just threw me off when I went scouting for the shots last night. A clever usage by who-the-hell-ever that made the original.
