					DAX 
			First we have to find a way to 
			reactivate the portal -- it's been 
			abandoned for a long time and it 
			destabilized when Molly fell 
			through. The problem is, we're 
			not sure how this technology 
			works.

					KIRA
				(looking over at
				O'Brien)
			Something tells me the chief isn't
			going to stop until he figures it
			out.

					DAX
			Something tells me you're right.

					KIRA
			Assuming you can get it back 
			on-line, then what?

					DAX
			We punch a transport scanning beam 
			through the portal and try to lock 
			on to Molly's DNA signature.

					KIRA
				(following) 
			Then pull her back into the 
			present.

					DAX
			That's the idea.

	The panel O'Brien is working with FRITZES and SPARKS.

					O'BRIEN
			Bloody hell!

	He glares at it, furious. Kirayoshi, startled by the 
	noise, starts to CRY.

					KEIKO
				(comforting him) 
			Shh. It's okay.

	When O'Brien looks over at his wife and son, his 
	features soften. He approaches them, puts a comforting 
	hand to Keiko's shoulder. They share a look of worry 
	and hope.
