DEEP SPACE: "Visionary" - 01/03/95 - ACT TWO            17.

26   INT. PROMENADE - CONTINUOUS

	Sisko and Kira walking along.

					KIRA
			The Romulans want to debrief everyone 
			who was on the Defiant when it was 
			captured by the Founders.  They're 
			also still not happy with the sensor 
			information collected by the Defiant.  
			So they want unrestricted access to 
			the Defiant.  And they want complete 
			access to all our personal logs.

					SISKO
			Personal logs are out of the question.  
			But they can have limited access to 
			the Defiant, and I'll let them debrief 
			us as well.

	Kira looks obviously unhappy at this, and Sisko stops for a 
	moment.

					SISKO
				(continuing)
			I know they're pushing us, Major.  
			But consider their position.  No 
			Romulan ships have ever been into 
			the Gamma Quadrant, much less 
			encountered the Dominion.  So they're 
			completely dependent on us for 
			information.

					KIRA
			Then maybe they should send their 
			own ships through the wormhole and 
			find out for themselves...

					SISKO
			The Romulans generally prefer to sit 
			back and pull the strings from a 
			distance if they can.

	They continue walking.

					KIRA
			Well this is one puppet who doesn't 
			like her strings pulled.

					SISKO
			I know.  But like Ruwon said, they've 
			lived up to their end of the bargain.  
			And we have to do everything we can 
			to live up to ours.
