54   CONTINUED:

	And with that, Ezri walks out. We hold on the
	Intendant watching her leave. She smiles and turns
	her attention to Brunt's dead body.

					INTENDANT

			she? Not even me.
				(a beat)
			I find that very exciting. Don't
			you?

55   INT. KLINGON FLAGSHIP - BRIDGE

	Garak is supervising a pair of Klingons working on
	an open panel. Ezri stands nearby, watching them
	work. The Regent sits in the Captain's Chair as a
	HELMSMAN reacts to something off his console.

					HELMSMAN
			Regent, long-range sensors have
			detected an enemy ship.
				(a beat)
			It's the Defiant.

					WORF
			Excellent.
				(to Garak)
			It's time to test the cloaking
			device.

					GARAK
			I'm afraid it's not operational
			yet.

					WORF
				(anger flaring)
			And why is that?

					GARAK
			It's a very complicated piece of
			equipment.

					EZRI
			One of the Ferengi seemed to know
			how it worked.

					WORF
				(an order)
			Then why isn't he here?

	Ezri's halfway out the door already.
