DEEP SPACE NINE: "... Nor the... " - REV. 08/21/96 - ACT FOUR 38C.
47B CONTINUED: (2)
ENSIGN
You know something... you're
first person I've talked to since
I got here who hasn't made me feel
like I'm taking up valuable bed
space.
Jake feels the urge to talk to him, to tell him that he
understands why he did what he did -- but he can't
bring himself to do it.
ENSIGN
The way everyone looks at me... I
can't stand it. After the court
martial, I'm going to sign up for
the next mining expedition to the
Gamma Quadrant.
JAKE
Maybe there won't be a court
martial.
ENSIGN
You're right, none of us may get
out of here alive.
Jake is too intent on what he wants to say to be
derailed by this; he needs to hold out hope for the
Ensign's redemption, thereby making his own redemption
at least a possibility.
JAKE
No, I mean -- Starfleet could
decide to send you to counseling
instead.
ENSIGN
I won't go.
Jake looks at him, surprised.
ENSIGN
I don't deserve to be in
Starfleet. Therapy won't change
what I did. Nothing can.
The Ensign turns away, makes a gesture toward his
head...
ENSIGN
(quiet)
I just wish I'd aimed that phaser
a little higher...
