					ODO
			Go on.

					IDANIAN #2 
			Where's Arissa, is she safe?

	Odo eyes him warily --


					ODO
			You know her?

					IDANIAN #2 
			Better than she knows herself.

					ODO
			What does that mean?

	The Idanian sees he's going to have to give Odo some 
	information, and he gives it as if there's no time to 
	waste.

					IDANIAN #2 
			She's not who she seems to be. 
			She's an intelligence agent with 
			my government. She was sent to 
			infiltrate Draim's organization.

	Odo is stunned... he can't believe what he's hearing

					ODO
			That's impossible. She would've 
			told me...

					IDANIAN #2 
			She doesn't know.

					ODO
			I don't understand.

	The Idanian quickly gives Odo the information he thinks 
	he needs to know.

					IDANIAN #2 
			We gave her a new identity before 
			we sent her in. All her previous 
			memories were removed and stored 
			on the datacrystal.

	The Idanian can see that Odo's mind is reeling --

					IDANIAN #2 
			If you take me to her, I'll 
			explain the rest.

	told...
