			Where's his body?

					BASHIR
			I have it in stasis.

					KAJADA
			I want to see it.

					BASHIR

					KAJADA
			Now.

	TIME CUT TO:

9    INT. STASIS ROOM - A BODY CABINET (OPTICAL)

	Vantika has been laid out on the shelf... Bashir hits a 
	button... the shelf slides out of the wall and a stasis 
	forcefield ZAPS off.

					BASHIR
			The preliminary examination indicated 
			that the subject died of a massive 
			respiratory failure, brought on by 
			the pulmonary trauma suffered in the 
			fire.

					KAJADA
			Are you sure it's the same body?

					BASHIR
				(a little surprised 
				at the question)
			Quite certain.  It's been sealed in 
			here ever since our arrival.

					BASHIR
