DEEP SPACE: "Cardassians" - REV. 08/25/93 - ACT FIVE        60.

56   CONTINUED:

					PA'DAR
				(not interested)
			Yes, well... we'll see.

	Sisko eyes him, not liking it, but having to accept it... 
	Pa'Dar glances up to see --

57   ON O'BRIEN AND RUGAL

	as they approach the airlock.  Rugal seems uncomfortable and 
	wary, almost sullen, as if no decision would have been a 
	good one.

					O'BRIEN
			Remember what I said.  If you ever 
			want to come back and visit them -- 
			let me know, and I'll arrange it...

	Rugal is morose and noncommunicative...

					PA'DAR
				(carefully)
			Hello, Rugal -- are you ready to go?

	Rugal looks at him -- no response, no affection here, just 
	one tough kid who's very closed off and is not going to open 
	up all that easily... Rugal simply turns and walks through 
	the airlock...

					PA'DAR
				(to Sisko and O'Brien)
			I suppose it will take time...

	Pa'Dar smiles sadly and follows his son, EXITING into the 
	airlock... Sisko and O'Brien watch after him... then turn to 
	look at each other...

58   INT. REPLIMAT

	The same setting as we opened with.  Garak has his Rokassa 
	juice.  Bashir has his Tarkalean tea.

					BASHIR
			But there's still one more question 
			I haven't been able to figure out, 
			Garak... Why did you want to expose 
			Dukat?  What's the truth about you 
			and him?
