49:[1,#b],191:[1,#b] DEEP SPACE: "Equilibrium" - REV. 08/15/94 - ACT ONE 10. 4 CONTINUED: DAX I'm serious, Kira. Leave. Kira can't just give up, she's too concerned about her friend. She stands there, trying to think of what tack to take. Dax looks up at her, stands. DAX Fine, then I'll go. Dax tries to move past her, but Kira catches her arm. KIRA Wait -- DAX (even) Get your hands off me... before I do something I'll regret. Kira looks into Dax's eyes... but doesn't see anyone she recognizes. Dax's threat is real, and Kira feels she has no choice but to let her go. Dax holds her gaze for a beat, then smiles, as if she's enjoying Kira's discomfort. DAX That's the first smart thing you've done since you walked over here. She turns and walks off into the Promenade... we hold on Kira's face for a beat and -- CUT TO: 5 INT. PROMENADE (VPB) where Dax is making her way across the central corridor. SUPERNUMERARIES go about their daily business, passing this way and that. 5A NEW ANGLE where we see that everyone on the Promenade has suddenly disappeared. The place is empty, deserted. A LIGHTING CHANGE gives the Promenade a mysterious look. Dax's attention is caught by a strange FIGURE standing on the upper level, looking down at her. The Figure is wearing dark, flowing robes and a strange, slightly feminine featured, eyeless MASK.
