	FADE IN:

59   INT. KIRA'S QUARTERS - CONTINUOUS

	Bashir's just broken the news about Ghemor, but he's 
	surprised to see how muted Kira's reaction is.

					KIRA
			Thank you for the information,
			Doctor.

					BASHIR
			That's it? "Thank you for the
			information?"  Ghemor is dying.

				KIRA
			I heard you.

					BASHIR
			Major, he wants to see you.

					KIRA
			I don't want to see him.

	Bashir sees Kira's reluctance and presses the point. 
	His patient is dying and Kira's the only person who can 
	ease his suffering.

					BASHIR 
			Major, please... It's almost over. 
			There's no more work to be done... 
			no questions to ask. Just go to 
			his quarters and sit with him.

	But Kira's mind is made up.

					KIRA
			I said no. Don't ask me again.

	Bashir can't believe this. He's disappointed with 
	Kira's behavior.
