DEEP SPACE NINE: "The Emperor's... " - REV. 11/23/98 - ACT FOUR     47  

56   CONTINUED:

					ROM (Cont'd)
			Maybe you want to die in this
			crazy, mixed up universe, but I
			don't.

					ZEK
			Neither do I.
				(to the Klingon)
			Lower the forcefield!

	Ezri nods to the Klingon, who lowers the field.

					QUARK
			I suppose we have nothing to
			lose...

	Quark, Zek and Maihar'du start to follow Rom out of
	the holding cell, but Ezri stops them, allowing only
	Rom to step out.

					EZRI
			Where do you think you're going?

					QUARK
				(indicating Rom)
			With him. He needs my help.

					EZRI
			You're a bartender, Quark. What
			are you going to do? Mix him a
			drink?

	The Klingon raises the forcefield, locking Quark,
	Zek and Maihar'du in the cell.

					ROM
			Don't worry, brother. I'm not
			thirsty.

					EZRI
				(to Quark)
			I don't expect you to believe
			this, but I am trying to help
			you.

					QUARK
			You're right, I don't believe it.

	And off this moment...
