DEEP SPACE NINE: "The Magnificent Ferengi" - REV. 10/24/97 - ACT TWO 27.

35   INT. CAPTAIN'S OFFICE

	Sisko is at his desk facing Quark and KIRA.

					QUARK 
			Captain, I can't thank you enough 
			for all your help.

					SISKO
			Don't thank me -- thank Major 
			Kira. She's the one that 
			convinced me to talk to Starfleet 
			on your behalf.

	Quark looks over to Kira, who shrugs modestly.

					KIRA 
			Consider it payback, Quark. For 
			rescuing me from the Dominion.

					SISKO
			Breaking you out of the station's 
			holding cell was one thing...

				(to Quark)
			... what you're planning to do is 
			considerably more dangerous.

					QUARK 
			Every negotiation has its share 
			of danger, captain.

					SISKO
				(not wanting to disagree) 
			If you say so.

	Quark gets up to leave.

					QUARK 
			I guess it's time for me to pick 
			up my prisoner.

					KIRA 
			Just be careful not to turn your 
			back on him, Quark. He's not to 
			be trusted.

					QUARK
				(smiling) 
			Neither am I.
