			You didn't seem to recognize the 
			"Alliance"...

					KIRA
			No.

					KIRA II

			Perhaps you'd recognize the name 
			"Kirk"...

					KIRA
			I'm sorry, I don't.

					KIRA II
			Interesting.  On my side, Kirk is 
			one the most famous names in our 
			history.
				(off her reaction)
			Almost a century ago, a Terran 
			starship Captain named James Kirk 
			accidentally exchanged places with 
			his counterpart from your side due 
			to a transporter accident.  Our 
			Terrans were barbarians then, but 
			their Empire was strong.  While your 
			Kirk was on this side, he met a Vulcan 
			named Spock and somehow had a profound 
			influence on him.  Afterwards, Spock 
			rose to commander in chief of the 
			Empire by preaching reforms, 
			disarmament, peace.  It was a 
			remarkable turnabout for his people.  
			Unfortunately for them, when Spock 
			had completed all these reforms, his 
			empire was no longer in any position 
			to defend itself against us.

					KIRA
			Us?

					KIRA II
			The Alliance.  The historic coming 
			together of the Klingons and 
			Cardassians.

					KIRA
			And Bajor is part of this Alliance?
