     DEEP SPACE NINE: "Once More... " - REV. 10/01/98 - ACT FIVE     58.

51   CONTINUED:

					QUARK (Cont'd)
			There's a whole universe out there
			full of men and women -- why limit
			yourself? You're young and
			beautiful and full of life. Why go
			after a man who's only a memory to
			you?

	Ezri is getting amused at this point.

					EZRI 
			I don't know.

					QUARK
			Now, I've had my problems with 
			Worf, I'll admit it. But this 
			isn't about me or my feelings. 
			This is about you. And Worf has 
			done nothing -- and I mean 
			nothing -- to deserve you. 
			Shouldn't you try to find someone 
			who's willing to... win your 
			heart, not just inherit it? You 
			deserve better. In fact... you 
			deserve the best. 
				(beat) 
			There. I've said my piece.

					EZRI 
			Can I say something now? 
				(off his nod) 
			I'm not interested in another 
			relationship with Worf. I care 
			about him -- and I probably 
			always will -- but he's moved on 
			with his life... and so have I.

	Beat.

					QUARK 
			Oh. Well. Good.

					EZRI 
			And I'd also like to say that 
			what you just did was one of the 
			kindest, dearest -- and for you, 
			one of the most embarrassing -- 
			things I've ever heard. 
				(gives him a kiss) 
			You're a real sweetheart.

	Quark is stunned, relieved, excited... and 
	speechless.
