"The Search" Line-by-Line!

Bashir: I've lost helm control. Inertial dampers failing.

 

SISKO: Ready escape pods. Prepare to abandon ship.
(Jem'Hadar beam in, and they fight, but it's pretty one-sided. T'Rul is the only one using a weapon and she doesn't last long.)

 

[Shuttlecraft]

KIRA: (waking up) Where, where am I?

 

ODO: You're in a shuttlecraft. You were wounded. Try not to move around.

 

Kira: Odo, what happened? We were under attack.

 

ODO: The ship was boarded. You were wounded in the attack. I managed to get us to this shuttlecraft, but I don't know much more than that. The last time I saw the Defiant, she was dead in space and surrounded by Jem'Hadar ships.

 

KIRA: Sisko? Bashir?

 

ODO: I don't know.

 

KIRA: Where are we?

 

ODO: Approaching the Omarion Nebula.

 

KIRA: You should have taken us back to the wormhole.

 

ODO: You didn't object at the time.

 

KIRA: I was unconscious. Have you found anything? (she checks sensors) There's a class M planet, no star system. A rogue planet?

 

ODO: Yes.

 

[Planet surface]

(They've landed in the permanent night of the planet, by a orange glutinous sea. They go to the shore and three figures form themselves and come out of it. A fourth emerges and goes right up to Odo.)

Female: Welcome home.

To be continued...

 

Last time on Star Trek Deep Space Nine.

SISKO: Our mission is to take the Defiant into the Gamma Quadrant and try to find the leaders of the Dominion, the Founders.

 

KIRA: What the hell is wrong with Starfleet? How could they do this to him?

 

Sisko: This has been a long time coming, Major. Starfleet has never been happy with the Constable. I want him to stay as much as you do, but he has to want to stay.

 

ODO: Ever since we've come into the Gamma Quadrant, I've had this feeling of being drawn somewhere, to a specific place. The Omarion Nebula.

 

(Three Jem'Hadar against one Defiant, they get boarded and beaten.)

ODO: The last time I saw the Defiant, she was dead in space and surrounded by Jem'Hadar ships.
