        DEEP SPACE NINE: "Rejoined" - REV. 08/30/95 - ACT ONE       16.

10   CONTINUED:	(3)

					LENARA
				(mock serious)
			Thank you, Commander Dax. I
			appreciate your insightful
			commentary on Bajoran cuisine.

	Dax shakes her hand with the same serious look.

					DAX
				(mock serious)
			It was my pleasure, Doctor Kahn.

	Then, at the same moment, the two of them turn and look 
	at the crowd -- again everyone turns away and tries to 
	look like they weren't watching this whole exchange. 
	Dax and Lenara share a smile of amusement and then 
	Lenara walks off to join her brother. Dax feels much 
	more relaxed as Bashir moves over to her.

					BASHIR
			Well... that seemed to go well.

					DAX
			I never doubted it.

	She takes a sip of her champagne and moves away from 
	the table, seemingly content and relaxed again. But 
	once she's away from Julian, she pauses for a moment... 
	no one is watching her... and she glances over at 
	Lenara across the room.

11   DAX'S POV 

	Lenara is listening to Bejal talk to Sisko... after a 
	beat, she seems to sense someone watching her and she 
	turns her head slightly, and now looks directly at Dax.

12   NEW ANGLE

	as Dax and Lenara's eyes meet across the room, and the 
	physical distance between them allows them to drop the 
	light joking pretense. For a fleeting moment, they 
	really see each other for the first time... and there 
	is definitely something in the air between them. They 
	both break the moment and look away at the same time.

	Dax lets out a long breath and is about to take a sip 
	from her glass of champagne... but then she sees that 
	her hand is trembling.
