10   INCLUDING BASHIR

	as, surprised to see others present, he nonetheless ENTERS.

					KIRA
				(smile)
			Doctor.

					DAX
				(to Kira)
			Foreign affairs building?

					BASHIR
				(to Kira)
			I wanted to wish you my best.

					DAX
				(to Kira)
			Well that's certainly dull.

					BASHIR
				(does she mean him?)
			I beg your pardon?

					KIRA
				(to Dax, resigned)
			"Dull" is the polite word for it.

					ODO
				(to Bashir)
			Doctor, if you were Kira, wouldn't 
			you at least be complaining to 
			Commander Sisko?

					BASHIR
				(lost)
			Uh... Look, I just came to wish you 
			good luck.

					KIRA
				(to Bashir; gently)
			Thank you, Doctor.

					BASHIR
				(to Odo)
			"Complaining" about what?

					ODO
				(to Bashir)
			Nevermind, Doctor; if she doesn't 
			care, why should we?

					BASHIR
				(to Kira)
			Have they given you any explanation 
			yet?
