			Risa to enjoy our old age and --
			(sly smile) -- do a lot of (shagging),

					QUARK
				(more than he needs
				to know)

					ZEK
				(holding up his

			I'll be coming to Deep (Space)
			Nine to name my successor.

					ZEK
				(beaming)

			To get away from the rain... ?

					ZEK

			succeed me. You're going to be 
			the new Grand Nagus! 
			Congra(tu)lations, (Rom)!
