DEEP SPACE NINE: "Things Past" - REV. 10/04/96 - ACT FIVE     58.

82   CONTINUED:

					BASHIR
			Easy, Odo. Whatever it is you've 
			been through, it's taken a toll. 
			Rest.

	Bashir moves off to tend to Garak, who along with the 
	others is beginning to sit up on their beds. Worf is
	helping Dax up; Sisko is blinking in the bright lights.

	For the moment, Odo is left alone.

									CUT TO:

83   EXT. SPACE - DEEP SPACE NINE (OPTICAL)

	Re-establishing the station.

84   INT. SECURITY OFFICE

	Bashir is handing Odo a PADD.

					BASHIR
			As near as I can figure out, the 
			four of you were locked into some 
			version of the Great Link.

					ODO
			The Link? But how's that 
			possible? I'm... a solid now.

					BASHIR
			It would seem you're not as solid 
			as you think. When I ran a 
			neurochemical scan of your brain, 
			I found residual traces of 
			morphogenic enzymes, which I've 
			only detected before in changelings.

					ODO
				(off PADD)
			The plasma storm that hit the 
			runabout activated the enzymes and 
			initiated a telepathic response.

					BASHIR
			Your mind reached out to find 
			other changelings to form the 
			Link, but it could only find Dax, 
			Sisko and Garak.

	Odo nods thoughtfully.
