       DEEP SPACE NINE: "Rapture" - REV. 10/23/96 - ACT THREE       33.

39   CONTINUED:	(3)

	The "mystical destiny element" in Sisko's voice alarms 
	the Admiral greatly. But he's a man that controls himself well.

					WHATLEY
			You're scaring me with this, Ben.

					SISKO
			I'm a little scared myself.

	Whatley tries to decide what to do. He knows he could 
	force Sisko to come back to the station, but he doesn't 
	want to do that. Finally, he decides to give a little 
	on this one...

					WHATLEY
			All right, I'll give you some 
			time. But I want you back on the 
			station by oh-seven-hundred hours, 
			tomorrow. You're to report to 
			Doctor Bashir for a complete 
			physical.

					SISKO
			I'll be there.

					WHATLEY
			Good.
				(a half-smile)
			I'll bring the donuts.

	Sisko nods acceptance and the admiral walks away. WE 
	HOLD on Sisko until the admiral is out of sight. Then 
	Sisko grimaces in pain -- another excruciating headache 
	grips him momentarily.

	Re-establishing. (Preferably a shot with ships coming
	to the station).

41   INT. INFIRMARY

	A determined Admiral Whatley address Doctor Bashir.

					WHATLEY
			It's oh-seven-fifteen. Where the 
			hell is he?

 					BASHIR
			His runabout only docked twenty-
			five minutes ago. I'm sure he's 
			on his way.
