DEEP SPACE NINE: "Shadows and... " - REV. 08/11/98 - ACT FIVE    61.

137  EXT. SISKO'S RESTAURANT - ALLEY - NIGHT (OPTICAL)

	Sisko is seated on his stool next to a bag of clams. 
	The Sarah alien stands in the doorway.

					SARAH ALIEN 
			The Emissary is corporeal. 
			Linear.

					SISKO
			Linear or not, I need some 
			answers.

					SARAH ALIEN 
			The Sisko is intrusive.

	Sisko stands and approaches the alien.

					SISKO 
			Are you Sarah Sisko? Are you my 
			mother?

	For the first time, we see a wormhole alien 
	hesitate, apparently unsure of how to answer.

					SARAH ALIEN 
			Sarah Sisko was corporeal. For a 
			time, I shared her existence.

138  INT. SISKO'S RESTAURANT - KITCHEN - NIGHT (OPTICAL)

	Sisko finds himself behind the counter.

					SISKO
			You took over her body --
				(putting it all 
				together) 
			-- made sure she married my 
			father... so that she'd give 
			birth to me...

					SARAH ALIEN 
			The Sisko is necessary.

					SISKO 
			And once you didn't need her 
			anymore, you left her... no 
			wonder she walked out on my 
			father. She never chose him, you 
			did.
