      DEEP SPACE NINE: "Little Green Men" - 09/19/95 - ACT ONE      13.

17   CONTINUED:

					ROM 
			Relax, Brother. I know kemacite 
			is unstable, but another day or 
			two won't make any difference.

					QUARK
			What are you talking about?

					ROM 
			The shipment of kemacite that 
			you're smuggling in the cargo 
			hold.

					NOG
				(surprised) 
			Uncle Quark, you're smuggling 
			kemacite? Isn't that dangerous?

					ROM
				(answering for his 
				brother) 
			Dangerous... And highly 
			profitable. Especially if we make 
			a side trip to Orion on the way 
			home from Earth.

	Quark considers continuing to deny Rom's accusations, 
	but decides it isn't worth the effort.

					QUARK
			What tipped you off?

					ROM 
			When I engaged the impulse 
			engines, I noticed the ship's 
			weight distribution was a little 
			off. So the last time you went to 
			waste extraction... I snuck back 
			to the cargo bay and took a look 
			around.

	Quark can't believe he's been caught by Rom of all 
	people.

					QUARK
			When did you get so smart?

					ROM 
			I've always been smart, Brother. 
			I've just lacked self-confidence.
				(a beat) 
			Of course, I could forget 
			everything I saw.

					QUARK 
			How much?
