	Natima sees that Hogue is pretty scared.

					NATIMA
			Don't worry, Hogue.  I have no 
			intention of letting you become 
			martyrs.  I'll get you out of this 
			somehow.
				(venting her own 
				frustration)
			If we could only get to Sadera Six 
			and join up with the others...

	She's cut short by a BEEP, and:

					COM VOICE
				(Quark's voice, 
				disguised)
			Lieutenant Smith to Professor Lang.  
			Commander Sisko is on his way to 
			your quarters.  He'd like to speak 
			to you in private.

					NATIMA
				(to comm)
			Thank you.  I'll be waiting.
				(to her students)
			Why don't you two go see if Chief 
			O'Brien's made any progress with our 
			ship?

	Rekelen nods, grateful for something to do, and she and Hogue 
	EXIT.

20   NEW ANGLE

	As Natima consults her PADD to prepare for her meeting with 
	Sisko.  The door CHIMES.

					NATIMA
			Enter.

21   ANGLE ON THE DOOR

	To reveal Quark

					NATIMA
			Quark.  I can't talk now.  I'm 
			expecting Commander Sisko.
