![]() ![]() At first there is no response, but with a swift grunt, he then wakes up, much to Mazur's relief. ![]() As the man lies there, Mazur thinks the worst and tries to wake him. After shouting at him to no avail, he nudges the man with his knee and the snoring soon stops. Meanwhile, in his holding cell, Mazur is getting increasingly bothered by his cellmate's very loud snoring. The doctor then quickly rushes to the right hand side of the court and clubs the ball at the back wall, where it bounces back, hitting the door and narrowly missing O'Brien. The chief is noticeably annoyed with Bashir's arrogance, " I can play any style you like" he argues, before snapping at Bashir to serve. After demonstrating an ancient warm up ritual, something that makes the heart a friend to the hand, Bashir notes, he challenges O'Brien to a game using the "old style" rules, judging by his lines on the floor. Bashir continues to boast he has taken on some tough opponents, most of whom " didn't really know what they were doing". The doctor reveals he was captain of the team at Starfleet Medical Academy, winning the sector championships in his final year much to O'Brien's surprise. The chief explains that he missed playing the game and so built the court, figuring there would be at least a couple of other players on the station, though he didn't expect Bashir to be one of them. As the doors swish open, he is greeted by the unexpected sight of Doctor Bashir, in full racquetball gear. O'Brien and Bashir argue over racquetballĬhief O'Brien is heading down a corridor towards his newly built racquetball court, practicing some swings with his racket as he goes. He even offers him a drink but Odo simply laughs and activates the force field to his holding cell. Now they have signed a complaint against him.Īs they arrive in the security office, Mazur pleads with Odo to release him, offering to talk it through with the Constable. Odo replies he is nothing more than a con artist, a con artist that convinced an elderly couple from Pythro V to invest all of their savings into his business, a business that subsequently folded. Mazur argues everyone needs someone to talk to and if that someone happens to require his help, he is all too happy to provide it. Mazur tries to trick Odo by getting him to talk about his homeworld but the Constable knows better, citing the El-Aurians' reputation for being good listeners. He was listening", replies Odo.Īs the two of them walk along the upper level of the Promenade, Odo reveals he has been closely watching the man, whom he knows to be Martus Mazur, a refugee from the El-Aurian system. ![]() Alsia implores to the changeling that the two of them were only talking. But before she can respond, Constable Odo slaps his hand on the man's shoulder and begins to frogmarch him to the security office. She goes on to explain that, as soon as she makes his findings public, she would get seven times her investment back "overnight." Her new-found friend smiles, flattering her with compliments before suggesting the two of them form a partnership in her new endeavor. As the man charms her with words, she reveals her plans to purchase a mining concession in the Vlugta asteroid belt using the spectrographic analysis data her father, a noted stellar cartographer, gained thirty years ago. She suddenly realizes that she is divulging all her plans to a stranger, someone she has only just met, though she does say it feels like she has known him forever. But, although she says she has saved quite a tidy little sum, she doesn't think she has enough to retire on just yet, and has decided to invest the money in business. On the upper level of Quark's, a lady named Alsia is telling a man of her late-husband and their business, and how she saved up a little bit of latinum every year just for her retirement.
