DEEP SPACE NINE: "Blaze... " - REV. 03/21/97 - ACT TWO 16.
21 CONTINUED:
EDDINGTON
Remember that Thanksgiving dinner
you cooked for the senior staff
last year? How many months did it
take you to grow all those
vegetables in the hydroponic
garden? Every ingredient fresh...
real.
(a beat)
Though you did put too much
tarragon in the stuffing.
SISKO
I wasn't aware you were a food
critic.
EDDINGTON
I wasn't. Until I joined the
Maquis and started eating real
food. Food that I'd grown with my
own hands. Fresh corn. As sweet
as a baby's smile. And tomatoes.
Do you know how hard it is to grow
tomatoes? There's always too much
rain... or not enough. It's too
hot, it's too cold.
(a beat)
I wonder what happened to those
tomato plants.
(bitter)
Probably burned to the ground
along with everything else.
Disgusted with the food, Eddington gets up and puts his
tray in the replicator.
SISKO
If we don't stop those missiles,
a lot of things are going to burn
to the ground. And not just on
Cardassia.
EDDINGTON
You never give up, do you, Ben?
Here we are, having a pleasant
conversation about food, and all
you're thinking about is the
mission. And how to get me to
cooperate.
(a beat)
You're wasting your breath. As
far as I'm concerned my life is
over. I'm dead.
