					O'BRIEN (Cont'd)
			That saves me having to give you a 
			history lesson.
				(a beat)
			But I'd better update you on current 
			events.  Since your officers left, 
			we've started a rebellion against 
			the Klingon/Cardassian Alliance.  
			We're fighting for our lives.

					SISKO
			I wish you luck, but I don't see 
			what that has to do with me.

					O'BRIEN
			It has everything to do with you.  
			You were the leader of the Terran 
			Rebellion.  At least, our Benjamin 
			Sisko was.

					SISKO
			Was?

					O'BRIEN
			Captain Sisko's dead.  The Cardassians 
			blew up his ship.

	Sisko doesn't need to have a picture drawn for him.

					SISKO
			And you want me to take his place.

					O'BRIEN
			Like I said, you're quick.

					SISKO
			Well I've got a better idea.  We're 
			going to walk back to the transporter 
			pad and you're going to send me home.

					O'BRIEN
			Wait.  Hear me out.  I'm not asking 
			for a lifetime commitment.  I just 
			need you to finish the mission Sisko 
			was on when he was killed.

					SISKO
			I'm sorry, but you're going to have 
			to find someone else.  I don't belong 
			here and I'm not about to interfere 
			with events in this universe.
