     DEEP SPACE NINE: "'Til Death... " - REV. 03/19/99 - ACT FIVE    55.

55   CONTINUED:

	An annoyed Quark overhears as he passes by carrying 
	a tray of CHAMPAGNE GLASSES --

					QUARK 
			Me, too -- and I'm the caterer.
				(moving away) 
			I can't work under these 
			conditions...

					BASHIR
				(melancholy) 
			Too bad Ezri and Worf couldn't be 
			here...

					O'BRIEN
				(bucking him up) 
			They probably got held up picking 
			out a wedding present.

	Bashir musters a smile. Off their shared 
	determination to hold off the possibility that their 
	friends are gone for good...

56   ACROSS THE ROOM

	we see ODO and a quietly troubled Kira. Finally, 
	Odo says something.

					ODO 
			Usually when we come to events
			like this, you're the one who has 
			to remind me to smile.

	Kira snaps out of her reverie and musters a smile.

					ODO 
			I wonder why they decided not to 
			have a Bajoran ceremony?
				(lightly) 
			I hope the Prophets forgive them.
