DEEP SPACE NINE: "Image in... " - REV. 07/27/98 - ACT FOUR     46.

60   CONTINUED:

	Jake follows behind him, holding the metal bowl for 
	the cleaned clams. He hands it to Sisko.

					JAKE 
			Dad... how many clams do you 
			think you've cleaned since we 
			got here?

					SISKO
			A lot. This was going to be my 
			last batch. But then I got to 
			thinking that I'd take a couple 
			of sacks on the runabout with me 
			tomorrow... give me something to 
			do on the way to Tyree.

					JAKE 
			You're kidding, right?

	Sisko lets the doubt hang in the air for a beat.

					SISKO 
			Jake... if I never see another 
			clam again, it'll be too soon.

	Jake smiles and EXITS back into the restaurant. 
	Sisko is about to sit down and begin work, when 
	something catches his attention off screen --

61   NEW ANGLE

	to see a man standing in the alley, half hidden in 
	the shadows.

					SISKO 
			Can I help you?

	The man approaches cautiously, almost reverentially. 
	As he steps into the light, we can see that he is a 
	young, innocent-looking BAJORAN MALE wearing the 
	simple robes of a penitent.

					BAJORAN MAN 
			Emissary... I've come a long way 
			to see you.

	The man continues to approach.

					BAJORAN MAN 
			This is a sacred moment... one 
			that will be long remembered.
