DEEP SPACE NINE: "For The Cause" - 03/07/96 - ACT ONE        9.

4    CONTINUED:	(2)

					SISKO 
			She's a Federation citizen, Odo. 
			You can't just invade her privacy 
			based on your suspicions... you'd 
			need to show me some real evidence 
			before I'd authorize what you're 
			proposing.

					EDDINGTON
			If she's really a Maquis, then 
			she's no longer a Federation 
			citizen.

					SISKO 
			The answer is no.

					EDDINGTON
			Understood, sir.

	Eddington gives Odo a look -- best not to push Sisko on 
	this. They turn to go, but then Sisko's conscience 
	gets to him.

					SISKO 
			Gentlemen...
				(they stop)
			Putting equipment in her quarters is 
			one thing... but her ship is a 
			different story. There are times 
			when we have to search vessels 
			docked at the station. If you can 
			find a reason...

	Sisko trails off, and they take the hint.

					ODO 
			We'll let you know.

	That said, Odo and Eddington EXIT, leaving a very 
	troubled Sisko in the Wardroom.

									CUT TO:

5    CLOSE ON A PLAYER'S GLOVE

	As the glove SMACKS a springball directly at the 
	camera.
