			You don't think Starfleet took command 
			of this space station without the 
			ability to defend it, do you?

					JASAD
			Defend it?  Your space station could 
			not defend itself against one 
			Cardassian warship...

	A beat as she steps forward to the viewscreen...

					KIRA
			You're probably right, Jasad. And if 
			you were dealing with a Starfleet 
			officer, they'd probably admit we 
			have a hopeless cause here... but 
			I'm just a Bajoran who's been fighting 
			a hopeless cause against Cardassians 
			all her life... So if you want a 
			war, I'll give you one.

	Jasad shakes his head, cuts off transmission and the screen 
	returns to the Cardassian ships... O'Brien studies her with 
	a trace of admiration...

					O'BRIEN
			Major, remind me never to get into a 
			game of Roladan Wild Draw with you...

	Off her reaction...

252  INT. CARDASSIAN BRIDGE (OPTICAL)

	Jasad studies the space station on a viewscreen...

	his officer ENTERS...

					CARDASSIAN OFFICER #3
			They were using a Thoron field to 
			block our sensors but we were able 
			to penetrate it...

					JASAD
			What are their defenses... ?
