DEEP SPACE NINE: "The Reckoning" - REV. 3/9/98 - ACT TWO 26.
21 CONTINUED: (2)
SISKO
I never asked to be the Emissary.
(a beat)
But for better or worse, that's
what I am.
DISSOLVE TO:
22 OMITTED
23 INT. SISKO'S BEDROOM
Sisko's lying on his bed in his nightshirt. He shifts
position, unable to sleep.
24 INT. SCIENCE LAB (OPTICAL)
as Sisko ENTERS the darkened room. The tablet sits on
the examining table, bathed in the light from the
overhead cowl. Sisko approaches it, his eyes searching
it for some hidden meaning. He reaches out and touches
it, half hoping to be thrown into another vision.
Nothing. After a beat --
SISKO
(softly)
Why do you always have to be so
damn mysterious?
Sisko turns away, addresses the room at large, the
unseen Prophets.
SISKO
Answer me! I'm tired of your
riddles. If you need me to do
something, say so.
Silence. Driven by some instinct he doesn't
understand, Sisko turns and takes hold of the tablet.
Without hesitation, without questioning what he's
doing, he lifts it over his head and SMASHES it on the
ground.
Only then, when it lies on the floor SHATTERED, does
the instinct that compelled him to act pass from his
features.
