					PALLRA
			If this has anything to do with my 
			husband's murder, I want to help in 
			any way I can.

	Odo pauses...

					ODO
			Oh, there was one other thing... I 
			understand your power was recently 
			terminated for lack of payment.

	She barely stiffens.

					PALLRA
			That's right.

					ODO
			But you were able to transfer funds 
			to the power company this morning.

					PALLRA
				(charming, not harsh)
			I don't appreciate your looking into 
			my private affairs.

					ODO
			It's just part of a routine 
			investigation.  If you could tell me 
			where you got the money.

					PALLRA
			A loan from a friend.

					ODO
			Of course.  Your friend's name?

					PALLRA
				(smiles)
			Odo, this really has nothing to do 
			with your investigation...

					ODO
				(smiles as best he 
				can)
			Good, then you won't mind giving me 
			the name.
