DEEP SPACE NINE: "The Ascent" -REV-10/14/96 - ACT FIVE 53.
55 CONTINUED: (2)
ODO
What does it look like?
With gritted teeth, Odo once again shoves the
transmitter a few inches, then drags himself forward.
He's clearly not going to stop until he's reached his
goal.
QUARK
You'll never make it.
ODO
Maybe not.
He shoves it up again, steels himself, takes a deep
breath, and forces himself upward.
QUARK
You're trying to embarrass me,
aren't you? You're trying to
shame me into carrying that thing
the rest of the way on my own.
Odo doesn't answer; he just keeps going, inching
himself and the transmitter painstakingly up the
mountain. Quark positions himself so that he doesn't
have to watch Odo's struggle.
QUARK
It's not going to work. You might
as well accept the inevitable and
die with dignity. That's what I'm
going to do. I'm just going to
sit here... and die.
(a beat, softly, to
himself)
my brother will get the bar, my
nephew will be completely
corrupted by the Federation and
end up a Starfleet captain, and my
bones will lie here and freeze...
unsold and unmourned.
Quark sits there and lets out a sigh. Now that he's
said it out loud, it doesn't sound like much to look
forward to. Taking a deep breath, he forces himself up
to his feet.
56 NEW ANGLE
As Quark walks up to Odo, reaches over, grabs the
transmitter and puts it on his back.
