				(more to Ezri) 
			Her norepinephrine levels are 
			slightly elevated.

					EZRI 
			What's causing it?

					BASHIR 
			I'm not sure.

					SARINA 
			It's probably due to limbic 
			overcompensation. The levels 
			should drop when the new thalamic 
			connections stabilize.

	Bashir looks at her in surprise, realizing she's 
	absolutely right.

					BASHIR 
			I think you're right.

					SARINA
				(explaining) 
			I was listening... when you were 
			telling the nurses about the 
			procedure.

	She looks at him, grateful for what he's done for 
	her.

					SARINA 
			I kept thinking that I wanted to 
			thank you for what you were 
			trying to do for me... and now I 
			finally can.
				(beat)
			Thank you...

	Bashir smiles -- despite the odd cadences of her 
	speech, her straightforward sincerity is touching.

	Off this moment...
