   DEEP SPACE NINE: "Hippocratic Oath" - REV. 07/31/95 - ACT FOUR   37.

39   CONTINUED:

					BASHIR 
				(Cont'd)  
			... What if you were never addicted  
			to the drug in the first place?

					GORAN'AGAR  
			But I took White all my life.

					BASHIR  
			Yes... but maybe you didn't need  
			it. It's possible that your DNA  
			structure had a random mutation  
			that--

	Arak'Taral steps through the door with his weapon out 
	and murder in his eye. He keeps his voice low and cold --
	the chilling sound of a man ready to kill. Just his 
	entrance into the room instantly raises the tension to 
	an extreme level.

					ARAK'TARAL  
			He escaped.

	Bashir and Goran'Agar are both surprised at this news.

					GORAN'AGAR  
			How?

					ARAK'TARAL  
			Using their ship's transporter. 
				(glares at Bashir)  
			They planned it together.

					GORAN'AGAR 
				(to Bashir)  
			Do you know where O'Brien is?

					BASHIR  
			No.

	Goran'Agar accepts that answer and turns back to 
	Arak'Taral.

					GORAN'AGAR
			Deploy the men into a standard --

					ARAK'TARAL 
				(re: Bashir)  
			He's lying. He's been lying for  
			days. There's no cure here. And  
			even if there was, he wouldn't  
			give it to you.
