DEEP SPACE NINE: "Favor the Bold" - REV. 9/5/97 - ACT FIVE     53.

54   CONTINUED:

	Damar ENTERS, his face bruised from his encounter with 
	Kira. Dukat's attention immediately goes to Damar.

					WEYOUN 
			Once the minefield comes down, 
			there'll be more than enough ships 
			to take their place.

					DUKAT
				(nodding impatiently to 
				Weyoun) 
			I understand. One moment.

	Dukat moves to Damar.

					DAMAR 
			I want your permission to arrest 
			Major Kira.

					DUKAT
				(sotto voce) 
			Kira? What about Ziyal -- did you 
			talk to her?

					DAMAR
				(nodding) 
			She doesn't want to see you. When 
			I insisted, the major... objected.

	Dukat is furious but, aware that Weyoun is in the room, 
	he controls his temper and voice.

					DUKAT 
			What did you do to Ziyal?

					DAMAR 
			I did nothing to her.

					DUKAT 
			Then why did Kira attack you? You 
			must've done something... 
			threatened my daughter in some 
			way. I told you to be tactful.

	Weyoun is impatient with this interruption.
