DEEP SPACE: "Vortex" - REV. 1/13/93 - ACT FOUR 32.
47 CONTINUED:
CRODEN
For why they came that night. I
never was told. And to this day, I
don't know. They broke into my home
just before dawn. By the time I
stopped them, they had already
murdered both my wives...
Odo turns and studies him... Croden's eyes look through the
window into the past...
CRODEN
You see, on my world, the punishment
for being an enemy of the people is
the death of your family.
(beat)
I had no sophisticated weapon...
only a short, slaughter knife that I
used for cutting the necks of fowl
we would prepare for supper. Imagine
my surprise when I discovered that
the necks of the security officers
were no more difficult to cut than
the birds'... even the sounds they
made when the blade crossed their
gullets were similar...
The silence fills the cabin for a long beat... Odo turns
back to his controls...
ODO
I'm supposed to believe this appalling
tale...
CRODEN
Would it make a difference if you
did?
ODO
No.
CRODEN
Then believe it. Because it's true.
