DEEP SPACE: "Q-Less" REV. 11/12/92 - ACT THREE           32.

33   CONTINUED:

					Q
			Or what?  You'll thrash me?
				(mischievous grin)
			Shall we settle this mano a mano?

	And suddenly...

34   INT. QUARK'S - MAIN FLOOR (OPTICAL)

	The patrons of the bar are back, surprised to find themselves 
	standing in a square, forming a human boxing ring, around...

35   Q AND SISKO

	who are now dressed as boxers, circa 1900.  Q, sporting a 
	handlebar mustache, assumes an old-fashioned boxing pose.

					Q
			Marquis of Queensberry Rules?

					SISKO
			What?

	Q bounces around like Gentleman Jim Corbett.

					Q
			Fisticuffs, pugilism, the manly 
			art of self-defense.  Isn't it 
			wonderfully barbaric?  Go on.  
			Take a poke at me.  That is what 
			you want to do, isn't it?

					SISKO
			Don't tempt me.

36   CLOSE ON QUARK AND VASH

	who are among the onlookers.

					QUARK
				(to Vash)
			I'll wager five bars of latinum on 
			Sisko.

					VASH
				(poker face)
			You're on.
