DEEP SPACE NINE: "The Assign... " - REV. 09/12/96 - ACT FIVE    55.

             52   EXT. SPACE --DEEP SPACE NINE (OPTICAL)               

	Circular ENERGY TRAILS crackle from the deflector 
	emitters.

53   INT. OPS

	Dax is reacting to her panel that has just lit up like 
	a Christmas tree as the station automatically goes to 
	Red Alert.

					DAX
			What the hell --

	Sisko emerges from his office.

54   INT. RUNABOUT

	Keiko's eyes narrow as her final goal comes within 
	reach.

					KEIKO
			Target the center of the wormhole.

	O'Brien nods.

					O'BRIEN
			Target coordinates, set.

					KEIKO
			Have us face the Temple. The
			blast will only last a fraction of
			a second...
				(smiling)
			They'll all be dead before they
			even see it.

	O'Brien considers this for an instant.

55   THE FORWARD WINDOW (OPTICAL)

	As the ship turns, the starfield rotates until we see 
	the flower petals of the wormhole are invitingly open.

					KEIKO
			You have no idea how many
			centuries I've waited for this...

					O'BRIEN
			Let's get on with it.
