DEEP SPACE NINE: "Tacking into... " - REV. 03/22/99 - ACT FOUR   37.

32B  CONTINUED:

					WORF
			Martok and I discussed it weeks
			ago.
				(a shrug)
			He likes you. He thinks you're
			an honorable woman and a worthy
			successor to Jadzia.
				(casual, taking a
				drink)
			So do I.

					EZRI
			That's very sweet of him... of
			both of you.

					WORF
			Sweet?

					EZRI
			Not a very Klingon word is it?

					WORF
			No.

					EZRI
			It's very... honorable.

					WORF
			Better. But a little obvious.
			Now, tell me what you think.

	Ezri takes a moment.

					EZRI
			Okay. But, I'm not sure you're
			going to like it.
				(beat)
			I think the situation with Gowron
			is just a symptom of a deeper
			problem. The Klingon Empire is
			dying. And I think it deserves
			to die.

					WORF
			You're right. I don't like it.

					EZRI
			Don't get me wrong, I'm really
			touched that you still consider me
			a member of the House of Martok...
			but I tend to look at the Empire

			with a little more skepticism than
			Curzon or Jadzia did.
