DEEP SPACE NINE: "Prodigal... " - REV. 11/05/98 - ACT FOUR    48A.

					O'BRIEN
			Hmm.
				(beat)
			Do you know a man named Thadial
			Bokar -- says he's a commodities
			broker?

					EZRI
			No. I make it a point to know as
			little as possible about the
			family business.
				(beat)
			Why?

					O'BRIEN
			He came down to the mine to talk
			with Janel while I was working on
			the drill... there was something
			about him... it reminded me of
			when I was working undercover
			with the Orion Syndicate... the
			way they dealt with "civilians."

					EZRI
			You think this Mister Bokar is a
			member of the Syndicate?

					O'BRIEN
			It's just a feeling. But it's a
			pretty strong feeling.

					EZRI
			We should tell Janel.

					O'BRIEN
			I think Janel knows. I realize
			I'm not giving you a lot of hard
			evidence here, lieutenant -- but
			Janel seems like a man who's
			being pressured by the Syndicate.
