                           ACT FIVE                             

	FADE IN:

61   EXT. ASTEROID (MATTE)

	The Runabout on the surface of the asteroid.  The asteroid 
	is gloomy and ill-lit from the heavy clouds of the Vortex.

62   INT. CAVE TUNNEL

	Croden ENTERS from the surface... moving with purpose, 
	quickly...

					CRODEN
				(calling back outside)
			This way...

	He moves ahead... a beat later, Odo ENTERS... ever wary, 
	looking around...

					ODO
			Slow down, Croden... stay where I 
			can see you... Croden...

	Croden finally stops...

					ODO
			What's your hurry?  What's in here?

					CRODEN
			I told you... the colony...

	But he is not so convincing now that he is anxious to move 
	ahead...

					ODO
				(suspicious)
			Anxious to see them again are you...

					CRODEN
			Of course...

	A long beat as Odo studies him... takes his arm... starts to 
	move him back toward the entrance...

					ODO
			Come on...

	Croden resists...
