					SISKO
			It may not be a crime, but
			obviously it's not a good idea.

	Odo stares at Sisko in disbelief. All the things
	Laas has said to him about how humanoids hate
	changelings are echoing in his head.

					ODO
			You're going to allow the
			Klingons extradite him... knowing
			they won't give him a fair
			trial...

					SISKO
			It's not my decision. It's up to
			the magistrate.

					ODO
			But you'd just as soon be rid of
			him. You didn't want him on the
			station in the first place. I
			practically had to beg you to let
			him out of that holding cell.

					SISKO
				(sharp)
			That's enough, Constable.

	Odo stiffens, holds his tongue.

					SISKO
			Now. General Martok has
			expressed concerns about our
			security arrangements.

					ODO
			Meaning?

					SISKO
			He doesn't feel it's appropriate
			that you be in charge of the
			prisoner.

	Odo bristles at hearing this.

					ODO
			May I ask why?
