			Too bad...

			I really think me and her could've

	TIME CUT TO:

31A  INT. LEE'S CUBICLE - DAY #4

	where Dax is seated in Lee's chair; we pick her, Sisko and 
	Bashir up in mid-conversation.

					DAX
			-- so what you're saying is that 
			even if I could get you out of the 
			Sanctuary, you wouldn't leave.

					SISKO
			Those hostages have to be protected, 
			whatever the cost.

	Dax acknowledges, she understands the stakes.

					BASHIR
			You said that one of the men who 
			brought you here took your combadge...

					DAX
			That's right.  And it's set to emit 
			a subspace distress signal.

					SISKO
			Julian, I want you to help Dax find 
			the men who took her combadge... and 
			then I want you both to get away 
			from this place.

					DAX
			But if the Defiant locks on to my 
			distress signal... and we're not 
			together...

					SISKO
			As soon as the hostages are in police 
			custody, I'll try to get back to the 
			beam-in site.
