12   EXT. SAN FRANCISCO STREET - DAY #1

	Dax is still unconscious.  A man's hand gently touches her 
	neck to take her pulse.  The man, CHRIS BRYNNER, is about 
	Dax's age, maybe a little older, well dressed and well 
	groomed.  He looks concerned.  He puts his hand on her 
	forehead to feel her temperature.

	Dax's eyes flutter open.

					CHRIS
			Are you okay?

	Dax sits up.  She immediately grabs her head and groans.

					DAX
			My head...

					CHRIS
			What happened... Did you get jacked 
			or something?

					DAX
			Jacked?

					CHRIS
			You know, robbed?

	Dax is starting to shake off some of the grogginess.  She 
	gets up and looks around and realizes she definitely isn't 
	where she should be.

					CHRIS
			Did they get your credit chips... 
			your I.D.?

					DAX
				(playing along)
			Looks like they got everything.

	She checks for her combadge and is relieved to find it's 
	still there.

					DAX
			Except my brooch.
