DEEP SPACE NINE: "Once More... " - REV. 10/01/98 - ACT TWO     24.

21   CONTINUED:


					ALL 
			Q'apla!

	They all drink to that while Martok waves away the 
	toast. Kor ENTERS. At the sight of him, Martok's 
	tales of battle are forgotten in a flash and 
	everyone (except Worf and Martok) jumps to their 
	feet.

					KOLANA
				(to Kor) 
			Let me have the honor to welcome 
			the Dahar Master to the humble 
			mess hall of the Ch'Tang.

					KOR 
			Sit, sit. You do me too much 
			honor. On this voyage I am but 
			the third officer -- I expect no 
			special treatment.

	They make room for him at the foot of the table. 
	Worf notices Martok fuming quietly and he tries to 
	change the subject.

					WORF
				(to Martok) 
			Have you settled on an attack 
			plan for the starbase on Trelka 
			Five?

	The attention of the table naturally returns to 
	Martok when the subject of combat is brought up.

					MARTOK
				(nods) 
			I'm going to send the Malpara and 
			Ning'tao in ahead of the rest of 
			the squadron.
