  2.           DEEP SPACE NINE: "The Bar... " - 1/08/96 - ACT ONE          9.
  3.  
  4. 6    CONTINUED:
  5.  
  6.                     ROM
  7.             It would've been a violation of my
  8.             contract. Paragraph seventy-six,
  9.             subsection three. "Employees of
  10.             Quark's Bar and Holding Company
  11.             are strictly prohibited from
  12.             leaving the work environment
  13.             during business hours unless
  14.             ordered to do so by their
  15.             employer. Any failure to comply
  16.             with this provision will result in
  17.             severe fines and possible
  18.             dismissal."
  19.                 (a beat)
  20.             It's a standard provision in all
  21.             Ferengi labor contracts.
  22.  
  23.     Bashir is amazed by the unfairness of Rom's contract.
  24.  
  25.                     BASHIR
  26.             You mean you don't get time off if
  27.             you're sick.
  28.  
  29.                     ROM
  30.             It's all part of our...
  31.                 (slightly sarcastic)
  32.             Generous employee compensation
  33.             package: "No sick days, no
  34.             vacations, no paid overtime."
  35.  
  36.                     BASHIR
  37.             It sounds like you need a better
  38.             contract.
  39.  
  40.                     ROM
  41.             There's no such thing. Ferengi
  42.             labor contracts are all the same.
  43.  
  44.     Bashir finishes fixing up Rom's ear.
  45.  
  46.                     BASHIR
  47.             That should do it. But I want you
  48.             to see me for a follow-up first
  49.             thing tomorrow morning.
  50.  
  51.     Rom gets to his feet.
  52.  
  53.                     ROM
  54.             It'll have to be before the bar
  55.             opens.
  56.  
  57.     Bashir shakes his head. He can't believe how 
  58.     downtrodden Rom is.
