DEEP SPACE: "Prophet Motive" - 12/07/94 - ACT TWO 19.
13 CONTINUED: (2)
QUARK
(with conviction)
It means... absolutely nothing.
(still grasping)
Maybe if we hold the pages up to the
light.
Quark takes the book from Rom and holds it at different angles
up to the light.
QUARK
No... that's not it.
He examines the binding, the ink, the fabric of the paper.
He smells it, taps on it and listens to it, and licks it,
but still can't find an answer.
QUARK
The answer must be right in front of
us.
ROM
I know. Maybe the Nagus has gone
insane.
QUARK
Nonsense. The Nagus is the most
brilliant Ferengi alive. I've
modeled my life after him. Don't
ever let me hear you speak that way
about him again.
ROM
But what if he really believes all
this?
QUARK
How could he believe this insanity?
No. It has to be part of some
brilliant, twisted, devious plan.
The Nagus isn't like you and me,
Rom. He thinks ten, sometimes twenty,
steps ahead. These Rules are probably
the key component in some vast plot
to seize financial control of the
entire quadrant.
ROM
So what do we do?
QUARK
The only thing we can do. We put
down this book and we walk away.
