	FADE IN:

1    EXT. DEEP SPACE NINE (OPTICAL)

	Establishing.  A large freighter is docked at a pylon.

2    INT. QUARK'S

	Light business as ODO walks in.  His eyes range over the 
	sparse crowd as he crosses to the bar.  At the far end of 
	the bar, a figure wearing nondescript clothes sits, drinking 
	alone (CRODEN).  He wears a locket on a chain around his 
	neck.  Odo moves halfway toward him to his usual spot at the 
	bar, deliberately makes eye contact with the alien who looks 
	away.  Odo already has him marked for suspicion.  QUARK moves 
	over.

					QUARK
				(sarcastic)
			The usual, Odo?

					ODO
			Nothing.

					QUARK
				(nods)
			The usual.

	Odo ignores the barb, his attention still generally focussed 
	in Croden's direction.

					QUARK
				(continuing)
			If all my customers were like you, 
			my family would be begging on the 
			Promenade.

					ODO
			Oh, I seriously doubt that.  Not as 
			long as there's a Miradorn raider 
			for you to do business with.
