5    INT. DEFIANT - BRIDGE (OPTICAL, VPB)

	Sisko is now standing near Dax's console.

					O'BRIEN
			The system's coming into visual range.

					SISKO
			On screen.

	On the VIEWSCREEN we see the Trialan sun hanging in space.

					DAX
			The gravimetric distortions are 
			intensifying...
				(puzzled)
			-- but they don't seem to be coming 
			from the star itself.

					O'BRIEN
			Where else could they be coming from?  
			There aren't any planets in this 
			system.

	Suddenly the ship JOLTS... and on the VIEWSCREEN a startling 
	sight unfolds -- a PLANET SHIMMERS into existence near the 
	Trialan sun, appearing out of nowhere.

					DAX
			There are now...

	Off their stunned reactions we...

									FADE OUT.
