DEEP SPACE NINE: "The Sons of Mogh" - 12/15/95 - ACT ONE       6.

4    CONTINUED:

					KURN
				(bitter)
			Always defending the Federation.
			Tell me, Worf... doesn't Starfleet
			ever make mistakes? Even in their
			furniture?

	Worf eyes him coolly, refusing to rise to the bait.

					WORF
			Where have you been, Kurn? It's
			been four months since your last
			message.

	Kurn gives him a sour look, gets up and moves about the
	room a little stiffly.

					KURN
			I've been... overseeing the end of
			a once-proud house. You may have
			heard of it -- it was called the
			House of Mogh.

	Worf's reaction is one of sadness and resignation...
	he's known about all this for quite some time, but this
	is the first time he's had to face directly the
	consequences for his brother.

					WORF
			I know what has happened. And
			I... regret that by opposing
			Gowron, I have brought disgrace to
			our family.

	Kurn looks at him and then laughs bitterly. Worf
	stiffens a little, not used to being scorned by his own
	brother.

					KURN
				(laughing, scornful)
			You "regret?" What's next, Worf?
			Do you want to "apologize" to me?
			Express your "sympathy?" How many
			human weaknesses will you display?

	Kurn is definitely pushing Worf's buttons here, but
	Worf manages to contain his anger.

					WORF
			I do not apologize for what I have
			done. I could not join Gowron in
			his war against Cardassia, or
			against the Federation. It would
			have been... dishonorable.
