			What he's trying to say is that we 
			would never do anything to 
			jeopardize your career.


					RICHARD
				(measured)
			And just so there's no 
			misunderstanding: I give you my 
			word that at no time in our 
			interview with Doctor Zimmerman, 
			will we ever mention or even hint 
			at the fact that you were 
			genetically enhanced as a child.

					AMSHA
			Jules, you can trust us. Your 
			father and I have kept the secret 
			of your DNA resequencing for 
			almost twenty-five years and we're 
			not going to let it out now.

					RICHARD
			But I would just add that, despite 
			what the authorities would like us 
			to believe, genetic engineering is 
			nothing to be ashamed of. You're 
			not any less human than anyone 
			else. In fact, you're a little 
			more.

					AMSHA
			We didn't come here to start 
			another fight. Let's just... try 
			to get through this, all right?

	Bashir doesn't know what to say, other than the 
	obvious:

					BASHIR
			All right.
