DEEP SPACE NINE: "Things Past" - REV. 10/04/96 - ACT FOUR     46.

53   CONTINUED:

	-- Sisko and Thrax are engaged in a fight of their own.

	-- Garak picks up Dax's phaser and SHOOTS the second 
	guard.

	-- Sisko is getting the upper hand in the fight with 
	Thrax, but then Thrax suddenly MORPHS out of Sisko's 
	grip and moves away from him.

	Everyone stops dead in their tracks as the Thrax GOO 
	slithers into a vent and disappears.

					GARAK
			A changeling... ?

	Sisko breaks the moment by helping Dax to her feet. 
	She holds her wounded arm painfully.

					SISKO
			We'll figure that out later.

	He leads them down the Corridor as fast as possible.

54   INT. TEROK NOR - CORRIDOR/AIRLOCK

	They come around the corner and can see the airlock up ahead.

					DAX
				(in pain)
			That's it.

	They rush to the airlock and OPEN the door, looking 
	around for any signs of pursuit. But as soon as Sisko 
	steps inside the airlock, he suddenly finds himself 
	in...

55   INT. TEROK NOR - HOLDING CELL

	The same holding cell seen earlier, but with no sign of 
	the explosion. Sisko, Dax, Odo, and Garak are all 
	here, looking around with dazed expressions as the 
	Cardassian Soldier (who originally "selected" Dax) 
	ENTERS carrying a PADD. The other holding cells are 
	empty.

					SOLDIER
			We just got the word -- your
			execution's been scheduled for
			nineteen hundred.
				(beat)
			That's two hours from now.
