14   INT. HAGATH'S QUARTERS (VPB) 

	Quark has just ENTERED to find Hagath seated at a table 
	monitor. The monitor is displaying an alien stock 
	exchange (much like Quark was viewing in the Teaser). 
	On the sofa, Talura is doing the twenty-fourth century 
	equivalent of manicuring her nails.

					QUARK 
			You wanted to see me?

					HAGATH
				(still focused on the 
				screen) 
			Just a moment.

	Some numbers scroll across the screen, Hagath smiles, 
	pleased with himself.

					HAGATH 
			Who would have thought there was 
			so much money to be made in 
			Andarian glass beads.
				(then, to Quark) 
			So how did things go with the 
			Proxcinians?

					QUARK 
			He purchased seven thousand 
			tritanium-plated assault skimmers.

					HAGATH
				(pleased) 
			Good. And he'll be back for more. 
			The Proxcinian War is just heating 
			up.

					QUARK
				(trying to please) 
			Lucky us.

	Hagath reaches over, grabs a PADD and hands it to 
	Quark.

					HAGATH 
			I suppose you're wondering when 
			you'll start seeing your share of 
			the profits.

					QUARK
			It had crossed my mind.
