					TIMOR
				(to himself)
			That explains things...

	He carefully pours the liquid back into the pool, and moves 
	over to a console, the bottom of which is connected to the 
	pool.  Intrigued, Bashir approaches him.

					BASHIR
			Can I ask what you're doing?

	As he continues working the console.

					TIMOR
			Yes.

	Bashir waits for a beat... sees that Timor is continuing to 
	work.

					BASHIR
			What are you doing?

					TIMOR
			Just making sure they're comfortable.  
			Checking the ion concentration, the 
			temperature, the viscosity... They 
			get very cranky if everything isn't 
			perfect.  You don't want them to get 
			cranky.

					BASHIR
				(unsure)
			No... of course not.

					TIMOR
			They're very demanding, you know.  
			Sometimes I don't know why I put up 
			with it.
				(beat)
			What's the weather like outside?

					BASHIR
			It's sunny... very pleasant.

					TIMOR
			Ah, sunshine... I miss sunshine.

					BASHIR
			Well... why don't you go up to the 
			surface?
