					SISKO
			Thank you, Chief.

	Sisko sits. Ch'Pok stands.

					CH'POK
			I'm curious, Chief. You said you
			"stand by" Commander Worf's
			decision. Do you agree with it?

					O'BRIEN
			I completely support him.

					CH'POK
			That wasn't my question. Do you
			agree with his decision?

					O'BRIEN
			I wasn't in command. It's not my
			place to question his judgment.

					CH'POK
			What if you were in command? What
			would you have done?

					O'BRIEN
			I don't know.

					CH'POK
			Chief, how many years have you
			been in Starfleet?

					O'BRIEN
			Twenty-two.

					CH'POK
			How many combat situations have
			you been in?

					O'BRIEN
			I couldn't even guess.

					CH'POK
			Try.

					O'BRIEN
			A hundred... a hundred and fifty.
