					LEETA 
			An entire year.

					QUARK
			Make it two.

					ROM 
			Brother!

					QUARK
				(indignant) 
			Isn't your life worth two years? 
			Now sit tight and trust your older 
			brother.

					ROM 
			But I don't want you to try to 
			save me.

	Leeta is shocked to hear Rom say such a thing.

					LEETA 
			What are you talking about?
				(to Quark) 
			They must've done something to his 
			mind.

					QUARK
			What mind?

					ROM 
			I'm serious. Brother, you have 
			more important things to worry 
			about.

					QUARK
				(misunderstanding) 
			The bar's doing fine. But thanks 
			for caring.

					ROM 
			I'm not talking about the bar.


					LEETA 
			Rom -- what could be more 
			important than your life?
