					YANAS
				(coldly furious)
			How dare you come in here and
			tell me how to be a mother? What
			do you know about raising
			children?

					EZRI
			I have three -- no, four
			lifetimes worth of memories about
			raising children.

					YANAS
			I have worked and sacrificed for
			each one of you for over --

	The door CHIMES.

					YANAS
			-- thirty years.
				(yells)
			Not now!

	She's surprised when the door OPENS anyway,
	admitting Janel.

					JANEL
			Sorry to interrupt, but...

	He looks behind him and then O'BRIEN ENTERS wearing
	handcuffs. He's bruised, cut and looks like hell,
	but he's very much alive. Lieutenant FUCHIDA of the
	New Sydney police bureau follows him in the door.

					EZRI
			Miles!

					O'BRIEN
			Ezri? What're you doing here?

					EZRI
			This is my home...
				(points)
			... my mother.

	Yanas steps forward -- she puts on her best and most
	gracious face.
