48   CONTINUED: 	(2)

					DUKAT
			No... I'd be wasting my breath...
			no one would listen. No one wants
			to fight.

	Dukat looks at Kira with piercing eyes.

					DUKAT
			There was a time when the mere
			mention of my race inspired fear.
			But now we've become a beaten
			people afraid to fight back
			because we don't want to lose what
			little we have left...

					KIRA
				(surprised)
			That doesn't sound like the
			Cardassians I know.

49   CLOSE ON DUKAT

	as he firms up the decision he's been making.

					DUKAT
			What Cardassians? Don't you see,
			major? They're all too paralyzed,
			defeated, broken...
				(directly at Kira)
			I am the only Cardassian left.
					(a beat)
			And if no one else will stand
			against the Klingons, I will.

	And on his look of determination, we:

									FADE OUT.
