DEEP SPACE NINE: "Tacking into... " - REV. 03/22/99 - ACT TWO    24.

15B  CONTINUED:	(2)

					WORF
			I suspect the Chancellor cannot
			see anything at the moment...
			except for one man.

					SISKO
			You mean Martok?


					WORF
			Gowron sees him as a political
			threat. These attacks against
			the Dominion are designed to
			humiliate Martok in the eyes of
			the Empire -- to force him to
			endure defeat after defeat.

					SISKO
			Are you telling me this is a
			political vendetta?

					WORF
			It would not be the first time
			that a Klingon Chancellor put his
			own interests ahead of the
			greater good.

	Sisko stares at him for a beat... takes a step or
	two away from Worf to let this outrageous idea sink
	in.

					SISKO
			Something has to be done.

					WORF
			I agree. And I have a solution.
			But it will not be easy.

					SISKO

			Do whatever it takes, Worf.
			Those Klingon ships out there are
			the only thing between us and the
			Breen. Gowron's risking the
			safety of the entire Alpha
			Quadrant and it has to stop.

					WORF
			Understood.

	Worf EXITS.
