DEEP SPACE NINE: "The Darkness... " - REV. 11/01/96 - ACT THREE   34.

34   CONTINUED:

	As they both look out the window at Kira...

35   INT. OPS (OPTICAL)

	Kira, Nog and Dax working at one of the consoles. 
	Brilgar is stationed in the b.g. near one of the doors. 
	The computer screen shows VOICEPRINTS of the three 
	scrambled messages, and as we hear the messages, the 
	voice prints should move correspondingly. At the 
	moment, Nog is listening carefully as Dax replays all 
	three messages.

					SCRAMBLED VOICE
			That's one. 
				(beat)
			That's two. 
				(beat)
			That's three.

					NOG
			It doesn't sound natural.

					DAX
			No kidding.

					NOG
			I mean, I know they're using some 
			kind of scrambler to disguise the 
			voice, but there's something else 
			the rhythms don't sound natural... 
			more like a composite of words 
			from different speeches put 
			together.

					KIRA
			You can tell that through all the 
			distortion?

					NOG
				(shrugs)
			It's the lobes. The intonation 
			and phrasing are just slightly 
			off.
