DEEP SPACE NINE: "Far Beyond... " - REV. 12/10/97 - ACT FOUR    47.

58   CONTINUED:

	It's a movie moment -- but as it ends, Cassie winces, 
	her feet are sore from a long day of work and a night 
	of dancing.

					CASSIE 
			My poor feet... baby, you better 
			marry me soon. I'm not getting 
			any younger.

	Benny turns and takes her in his arms.

					BENNY 
			But you are getting more and more 
			beautiful.

	Benny breaks out into a TBD SONG. Although he's 
	hamming it up, it's obvious he has an impressive voice. 
	After a few bars, they lean over to kiss. But before 
	their lips touch --

					PREACHER (O.S.) 
			Brother Benny.

	Benny looks to see --

59   BENNY'S POV

	of the Preacher emerging from the shadows. Benny lets 
	go of Cassie and walks over to him, smiling.

					BENNY 
			I was hoping I'd see you again. 
				(proud) 
			I did it. My story's going to be 
			published.

					PREACHER 
			"The light of the Lord is in his 
			path." But, this is only the 
			beginning of your journey -- not 
			the ending. And the path of the 
			Prophets sometimes leads into 
			darkness and pain.

					CASSIE 
			Benny, what's he talking about? 
				(to the Preacher) 
			Who are you?
