					FUTURE O'BRIEN
			What... ?  Computer, lights.


	The lights come ON, and Future O'Brien looks at his past 
	self with weariness -- he's had enough of this time jumping 
	business.

					FUTURE O'BRIEN
				(continuing)
			Not you again.  What is it now?

					PAST O'BRIEN
				(difficult)
			Listen to me... I've jumped ahead 
			and seen your future -- don't ask me 
			how, it'll take too long to explain.
				(catches his breath)
			There's going to be a disaster... DS 
			Nine will be destroyed.

	Future O'Brien sits bolt upright at that.

					FUTURE O'BRIEN
			Destroyed?  How?

					PAST O'BRIEN
			I don't know.  That's why I'm here... 
			I have to find out what's going to 
			happen... and then travel back... 
			into the past and prevent it.

	Future O'Brien nods, then takes a closer look at the obviously 
	ill Past O'Brien.

					FUTURE O'BRIEN
			You look pretty bad.

					PAST O'BRIEN
			It's the... radiation.

					FUTURE O'BRIEN
			But if you feel bad... and you're my 
			past self... shouldn't I be feeling 
			bad too... ?

	They both frown at this confusing notion.

			FUTURE O'BRIEN				PAST O'BRIEN

	I hate temporal mechanics.		I hate temporal mechanics.

	They exchange a look, then Past O'Brien tries to focus on 
	the task at hand.
