5    INT. QUARK'S

	Where a somber Ezri is at the bar when QUARK
	approaches. SUPERNUMERARIES as needed.

					QUARK
			Heard anything from the Defiant?

					EZRI
			I talked to Benjamin this morning.
			He said that according to the
			Koraga's crew, Worf was the last
			to leave the bridge.
				(grim)
			No one knows if he made it to an
			escape pod.

	Quark can see that she's trying to control her
	emotion, tries to make her feel better.

					QUARK
			My money says he did. We haven't
			seen the last of that crazy Klingon.

	But Ezri isn't so sure.

					EZRI
			They've been searching for three
			days...

					QUARK
			They'll find him. It's just going
			to take a while. You know what
			it's like in the Badlands, there's
			a lot of sensor interference.

	Ezri lets out a troubled breath.

					EZRI
			I should've gone with them...

					QUARK
			What would you be able to do that
			they can't?

					EZRI
			Probably nothing, but it'd be
			easier than sitting here waiting.
