    DS9: "You Are Cordially Invited... " - REV. 9/23/97 - ACT FIVE   60.

38   CONTINUED:

					DAX (Cont'd) 
			I was once the Federation 
			ambassador to the Klingon Empire! 
			I negotiated the Khitomer Accords 
			before Worf was even born!

					SISKO
			Curzon negotiated the Accords. 
			And I've got news for you, old 
			man... you're not Curzon anymore.

					DAX
			What the hell is that supposed to
			mean?

					SISKO
			It means you can't expect Sirella 
			to treat you like Curzon just 
			because you carry his memories. 
			To her, you're just a young woman 
			who's decided to marry into her 
			family. If you have to get down 
			on your knees and kiss Sirella's 
			boots, then that's what you have 
			to do. And you know that. From 
			the moment you decided to marry 
			Worf, you've known that sooner or 
			later, you'd have to bow down and 
			show her the respect she's due.

					DAX
			This is all Worf's fault -- Worf 
			and his "traditional Klingon 
			wedding."

					SISKO
			He may have let this wedding 
			business go to his head, but 
			you're three hundred fifty-six 
			years old. Compared to you, Worf's 
			just a kid. If you can't abide 
			by Klingon traditions, then you 
			should've never let yourself fall 
			in love with him in the first 
			place.
				(softer) 
			And you are in love with him.

	There's a long quiet beat as she realizes that he's right.
