DEEP SPACE: "Past Tense, Pt. I" - REV. 10/19/94 - ACT THREE    32.

28   CONTINUED:	(4)

					LEE
			Anywhere you like.  The buildings in 
			the district are there for everyone 
			to use.

	In other words, they're on their own.

					SISKO
			Thanks for all your help.

	Sisko and Bashir head for the door.

					LEE
			One more thing... a little advice.  
			Stay away from District Security.  
			They've had their budget cut again.  
			They're overworked and underpaid...
				(trails off)
			Just give them a lot of space.
				(a beat)
			And watch out for ghosts.

					BASHIR
			Ghosts?

					LEE
			That's what we call people who haven't 
			integrated well into the Sanctuary.  
			They can be dangerous; they tend to 
			prey on other residents.

					SISKO
				(means it this time)
			Thanks for the warning.  We'll stay 
			out of their way.

	Sisko and Bashir EXIT.  Lee watches them go.  She feels for 
	them, but she tries not to let it get to her.

29   INT. CHRIS'S OFFICE - NIGHT #1

	Dax is alone in Chris's office.  She's trying to contact 
	Sisko and Bashir over her combadge.  From her expression, it 
	appears she's been at it for a while.

					DAX
			Dax to Sisko... Dax to Bashir... If 
			you can hear me, please respond...

	There's no answer.  Chris ENTERS.
