	Some emergency source lights are dotting on one by one but

			Is it just the lights or the heat 
			too... I didn't bring any warm

					BASHIR
			I'm sure it's just temporary...

			I've been reading the reports of

			They gave me the impression that he 
			was a competent engineer...

			of the frontier, it's one adventure 
			after another... why don't I escort 
			you back to your quarters while we 
			all wait this out...
