DEEP SPACE NINE: "Apocalypse... " - REV. 07/19/96 - ACT TWO    25A.

33A  CONTINUED:

					ODO
				(interrupting)
			Captain, I have no business being 
			on this mission. I'm not a very 
			convincing Klingon.

					SISKO
			Then you'd better work on becoming 
			one. Because like it or not, you 
			are on this mission.

					ODO
			I'd hate to be the reason it 
			fails.

					SISKO
			Let me worry about that.
				(a beat)
			Odo, I know this has been a 
			difficult time for you. That you 
			never would've chosen to become a 
			Solid. But what's done is done. 
			Brooding isn't going to change 
			anything. And shirking your 
			responsibilities isn't going to 
			make you feel better about 
			yourself.

	There's a beat as Odo thinks it over.

					ODO
			No, I don't suppose it will.

					SISKO
			Then I suggest you get back in 
			there and do your job.

	But before they can move, a klaxon sounds the Klingon 
	equivalent of a Red Alert. Sisko and Odo react, then 
	move into...


34   INT. DUKAT'S BIRD OF PREY - BRIDGE (OPTICAL)

	Sisko and Odo arrive just as Worf and O'Brien also 
	ENTER. Dukat is in the Commander's Chair, Damar at the 
	helm. There's a Klingon bird of prey on the 
	viewscreen.

					SISKO
			What's going on, Dukat?
