DEEP SPACE NINE: "The Dogs... " - REV. 04/09/99 - TEASER     3-4.

5   CONTINUED:

					EZRI
				(to Sisko) 
			I didn't know we were getting 
			another Defiant-class ship.

					SISKO
			That's what happens when you miss 
			staff meetings.


					O'BRIEN
				(mixed feelings)
			Looks just like her...

					SISKO
			Let's hope she fights like her.

	Off Sisko as he studies the approaching ship...

6    EXT. SPACE - DEEP SPACE NINE (STOCK/OPTICAL)

	as the ship comes in and docks.

7    INT. BRIDGE - CLOSE: THE DEDICATION PLAQUE

	which reads USS SAO PAULO.

					ROSS'S VOICE 
			Attention to Orders.

8    ADJUST TO REVEAL

	ADMIRAL ROSS is reading from a PADD as he formally 
	hands over command to Sisko. O'Brien, Worf, Ezri 
	and Bashir are gathered around the Captain's Chair, 
	standing at attention.

	The Bridge layout is familiar, but the CAPTAIN'S 
	CHAIR is different, and there's a FREE-STANDING 
	CONSOLE where the aft table used to be.

	We should try to convey a sense of a brand-spanking 
	new ship (budget permitting), with shining consoles, 
	new carpeting, slick new VPB wallpaper, etc.

					ROSS 
			To Captain Benjamin L. Sisko. As 
			of this date, you are requested 
			and required to take command of 
			U.S.S. Sao Paulo.
