      DEEP SPACE NINE: "Things Past" - REV. 10/04/96 - ACT THREE       

41   ON DUKAT & DAX

	As Dukat walks through the Bajoran sector with Dax. 
	Dukat is playing the benevolent ruler walking among his 
	subjects, unconcerned that there's no affection in 
	their eyes.

					DUKAT
				(to Dax)
			... on the contrary, I find these 
			visits stimulating. Each time I 
			come, I find another example of 
			Bajorans making progress.

					DAX
			Progress.

					DUKAT
			For example, not that long ago 
			you'd find them burning malaba 
			drums on this level just to keep 
			warm. Six months ago, I extended 
			environmental controls into the 
			Bajoran sector. And look -- no 
			fires, no poor unfortunates 
			shivering under blankets.

	Dukat beams with pride, but Dax looks around at the 
	unhappy, destitute crowd and sees little to be proud of.

					DAX
				(to herself)
			Just a little malnutrition and 
			lack of medical care.

					DUKAT
			Hmmm?

					DAX
			I didn't say anything.

	Dukat heads over to a kiosk of goods. The Bajorans 
	part in front of him.

42   ON ODO

	As he glances around the Promenade for a beat, then 
	lifts his spoon to take a mouthful of soup -- but his 
	hand is covered with blood. He looks down in shock -- 
	both his hands are dripping with blood! He drops 
	the spoon with a start.
