DEEP SPACE NINE: "Badda-bing... " - REV. 01/13/99 - ACT TWO     25.

25   INT. VIC'S APARTMENT - NIGHT

	Vic, whose ribs have been taped, holds ice cubes
	wrapped in a dishtowel to his cheek. Bashir,
	O'Brien, EZRI, Nog and Kasidy are scattered around
	the room, as Odo and Kira brief them on what they've
	learned.

					ODO
			... turns out that Frankie Eyes
			was sent to Vegas by a man named
			Carl Zeemo.

					VIC
			Looks like Frankie's moving up in
			the world.

					KIRA
			You've heard of Mister Zeemo?

					VIC
				(nodding)
			Been around forever. Likes to
			pretend he's a sweet old man, but
			he's meaner than a junkyard dog.
				(thinking it
				through)
			This is all starting to make
			sense... I knew Frankie didn't
			have the bread to buy a hotel.

					EZRI
				(finishing the thought)
			But Zeemo does.

					VIC
			More than enough. This is going
			to be a pretty sweet deal for
			him. The casino's been pulling
			in about a million bucks a month.
			Cash. And out of that, Zeemo
			will expect to be sent a couple
			hundred grand.

					ODO
				(knowing the right
				term)
			That would be the "skim."
