DEEP SPACE NINE: "Penumbra" - REV. 01/19/99 - ACT ONE       11.

9    EXT. CARDASSIA PRIME (MATTE SHOT)

	Establishing.

10   INT. DOMINION BRIEFING ROOM

	DAMAR reacts to a console and turns to WEYOUN, who's
	thoughtfully studying a STAR MAP displaying the
	current tactical situation.

					DAMAR
			The Defiant is returning to
			Federation space.
				(reaching for his console)
			I'm ordering our ships to pursue.

					WEYOUN
			No. Divert them to the So'na
			outpost on Devos Two.

	Damar bristles at having his order countermanded.

					DAMAR
			Why?

					WEYOUN
			We need them to help protect the
			new Ketracel White facility. The
			Federation has been made aware of
			its location.

					DAMAR
			Can't the So'na protect it?

					WEYOUN
			Are you questioning my orders?
			That would be... foolish.

	Damar scowls, works the panel. His task done, he
	starts toward a table where there's a BOTTLE of
	Kanar and some GLASSES.

					WEYOUN
				(still studying the
				starchart)
			I wonder what the Defiant was
			doing out there... ?
