Smartest move I've seen in Trek

As I type, I'm watching What You Leave Behind, and I've just seen one of the smartest moves I've ever seen in Star Trek. Damar, Kira and Garak have just been captured. The Founder then orders their immediate execution, no facny "bring them to me" stuff, no elaborate executions. Just that. I thought it was clever.
Anyone?

I wouldn't call it that smart, considering that they lived.

Well yeah, but they meant well, by well I mean evil actually.

Though it obviously didn't work out, I agree with you Gandalf. Tis much better than the usual;
"Now that I have captured you, I will revel my diabolical plot to enslave the galaxy in alarming detail. Since you cannot possibly escape, I'll revel the only possible flaw that could be exploited if you had the time, though you obviously don't. Muhhahahahahah."

They must have been reading the Rules for an Evil Warlord.
