DEEP SPACE NINE: "Shadows and... " - REV. 08/11/98 - ACT TWO    18.

19   CONTINUED: 

					QUARK 
			Nice try, doctor, but I want to 
			hear it from him.

	It's clear to all three men that Worf can overhear 
	this conversation.

					O'BRIEN
				(a warning) 
			Quark -- don't do this...

					QUARK
				(building up a head 
				of steam) 
			Do what?
				(standing up) 
			All I'm asking for are two little 
			words...

	With a sudden flash, Worf lunges at Quark, grabbing 
	him by the collar.

					WORF 
			Be quiet.

					QUARK
				(scared) 
			That's two words all right. Just 
			not the two I was hoping for.

	Worf shoves Quark back into his seat.

					WORF 
			Why should I feel any gratitude 
			toward you? I owe you nothing.

	When Worf speaks, his words are meant for O'Brien 
	and Bashir as well.

					WORF 
			You're not here to help Jadzia 
			get into Sto-vo-kor -- you're 
			here because you wish to convince 
			yourselves that you were worthy 
			of her.
				(a beat) 
			But the truth is, none of you 
			could ever hope to be worthy of 
			Jadzia Dax or even understand the 
			kind of woman she was.
				(to Quark) 
			It's you who should be thanking 
			me, Ferengi.
