DEEP SPACE NINE: "Hard Time" - REV. 2/05/96 - ACT THREE      34.

45   NEW ANGLE 

	To include O'Brien, pacing around the cell. Almost ten
	years have passed since O'Brien's incarceration and
	both Ee'char and O'Brien are showing signs of age.
	O'Brien's agitated and clearly looking for fight.

					EE'CHAR
				(still drawing)
			Tell me about Keiko again. About
			how much you like her eyes.

					O'BRIEN
			I've told you about her a hundred
			times. What more is there to say?

					EE'CHAR
			I like hearing about her. If I
			had a beautiful wife to talk
			about, believe me, I would.
			Besides talking about her always
			relaxes you. And your pacing is
			getting a little distracting.

					O'BRIEN
			Well your drawing is bothering me.

					EE'CHAR
			Since when?

					O'BRIEN
			Since right now.

	And with that, O'Brien kicks the drawing, spraying sand
	over and completely obliterating it.

					EE'CHAR
			You didn't need to do that.
