      DEEP SPACE NINE: "The Visitor" - REV. 08/14/95 - ACT TWO      23.

23A  INT. UPPER PYLON (PRESENT)
	(FORMERLY SCENE 24)

	where Jake stands looking out at the stars. After a 
	moment Kira approaches.

					KIRA 
			Jake... ?

	He turns at the sound of her voice.

					KIRA 
			I want to talk to you about 
			something.

	She looks at him with concern and sympathy, continues 
	in a quiet voice.

					KIRA 
			I spoke with your grandfather...
			he told me he'd asked you to come 
			live with him.

	Jake looks away, not wanting to hear this.

					KIRA 
			Even if this sector weren't on the 
			brink of war, I'd still like to 
			see you leave the station.

	Jake's emotions flare, he's almost angry, as if the 
	feelings he's kept in check are finally coming to the
	fore.

					JAKE 
			I'm not going anywhere.

					KIRA
				(gently)
			Jake... if I wanted to, I could
			order you to go.

	Jake's voice fills with emotion... he's pleading from 
	the depths of his shattered heart.

					JAKE 
			Please don't make me leave. Not 
			yet. This is my home.

	He looks away, choked up for a beat.

					JAKE 
			When Dad and I came here, this 
			place was just an abandoned shell; 
			he turned it into something. 
				(glancing around)
			Everywhere I look... it's like I'm 
			seeing a part of him.
