        DEEP SPACE NINE: "Rejoined" - REV. 08/31/95 - ACT TWO       18.
                            ACT TWO                             

	FADE IN:

13   EXT. SPACE - THE DEFIANT (OPTICAL)

	The ship is docked at the station.

14   INT. DEFIANT - ENGINE ROOM

	O'BRIEN and EDDINGTON are listening to Bejal describe 
	the modifications that will need to be made to some of 
	the Defiant's systems. Dax, Pren, and Lenara are 
	nearby, and two N.D. Starfleet Engineers are also 
	listening.

					BEJAL 
			After we launch our target drone,  
			the Defiant will have to generate  
			a subspace tensor matrix in the  
			twenty-five to thirty thousand  
			Cochrane range. Then the drone  
			will send out a magneton pulse  
			which should react with the matrix  
			and create an opening in the space- 
			time continuum.

					EDDINGTON  
			How long will we have to keep  
			generating the matrix?

					PREN  
			Two minutes, maybe less. Once the  
			wormhole forms, we can shut down  
			the tensor matrix.

	O'Brien thinks about this for a moment.

					O'BRIEN  
			We'll need to reroute the pre- 
			ignition plasma from the impulse  
			deck down to the auxiliary intake  
			to get that much power... 
				(beat)  
			But I think we can do it.

					BEJAL  
			Excellent.

					PREN  
			We'll also need to download our  
			parameters for the matrix into one  
			of your computers.
