DEEP SPACE NINE: "The Muse" - REV. 02/14/96 - ACT TWO       16.

15   INT. QUARK'S

	SUPERNUMERARIES as needed. Odo ENTERS and approaches 
	Quark, Who's at the bar.

					ODO
			You called me out of a security 
			briefing... this better be 
			important.

					QUARK
			It is to me.

	Quark motions over toward a table where we see...

16   LWAXANA, DAX, KIRA, AND WORF

	sitting together. Dax and Kira are in their "CAMELOT" 
	COSTUMES; Worf is in his WORKOUT CLOTHES and has his 
	BATILETH. All three of them are stone silent, looking 
	into their drinks with morose faces. Lwaxana is 
	somberly recounting her woes, and seems oblivious to 
	the effect she's having on our people.

					LWAXANA
			... that's when I realized what a 
			terrible mistake I'd made -- that 
			my marriage was a sham... what I'd 
			mistaken for love was nothing more 
			than a prison.

	As if sensing that our people can't take much more, 
	Lwaxana tries to cast off her mood.

					LWAXANA
			I shouldn't dwell on it... it's 
			all in the past anyway...

	She turns to Kira and Dax, asks brightly --

					LWAXANA
			So... where are you ladies off to?

					KIRA
				(unenthused)
			A holosuite...

					DAX
				(listless)
			King Arthur's Court...

	This seems to pop Lwaxana's fragile bubble of 
	optimism...

					LWAXANA
			Camelot... love betrayed... dreams 
			shattered...
				(a beat)
			I'm coming with you.
