  2.         DEEP SPACE NINE: "Chimera" - REV. 12/16/98 - ACT ONE        11.
  3.  
  4. 10   CONTINUED:    (2)
  5.  
  6.                     CHANGELING
  7.             Over two hundred years.
  8.                 (off Odo's surprise)
  9.             I must've been sent out earlier
  10.             than you.
  11.  
  12.                     ODO
  13.                 (trying to make
  14.                 sense of it)
  15.             Or it could be that I was adrift
  16.             for a long time before I was
  17.             found.
  18.  
  19.                     CHANGELING
  20.             Either way, it explains why
  21.             you've chosen to stay here. I
  22.             was fascinated by humanoid life
  23.             in the beginning, too.
  24.  
  25.     Being treated like a "youngster" doesn't sit well
  26.     with Odo.
  27.  
  28.                     ODO
  29.             But you... lost interest.
  30.  
  31.                     CHANGELING
  32.             I found it... limiting.
  33.                 (besides)
  34.             The Varalans never accepted me as
  35.             one of them. I wasn't able to
  36.             fully mimic their appearance.
  37.  
  38.                     ODO
  39.             Faces aren't easy.
  40.  
  41.                     CHANGELING
  42.             No. And humanoids aren't very
  43.             tolerant of difference.
  44.  
  45.                     ODO
  46.             Some of them are. There are
  47.             dozens of species living on this
  48.             station, and they tolerate each
  49.             other's differences quite well.
  50.  
  51.                     CHANGELING
  52.                 (glancing around)
  53.             He has bumps on his forehead and
  54.             she has a wrinkled nose -- but
  55.             they're basically alike. They're
  56.             bipeds that eat, sleep and
  57.             breathe. You and I are nothing
  58.             like them.
