Field of Fire Line-by-Line

[May 20]

SISKO: Disturbing thought, isn't it?

 

[Oddish]

BASHIR: "Starfleet officers do not go around murdering other officers."

 

[May 20]

ODO: Not usually, anyway.

 

[Orac]

O'Brien: Hold on a minute. That's odd. According to these readings, the bullet only travelled 8 or 9 centimetres.

 

[Oddish]

SISKO: "Then the killer must have fired at point blank range."

 

[Orac]

Odo: I don't think so. There are no powder burns on the body.

 

[Oddish]

BASHIR: "What are powder burns?"

 

[Orac]

Odo: At close range, chemically propelled weapons leave residual combustion products on the skin and clothing of the victims.

 

[Oddish]

SISKO: "How did you know that?"

 

[mattman8907]

ODO: I read twentieth century crime novels. Raymond Chandler, Mike Hammer, that sort of thing.

 

[Oddish]

SISKO: "So, if the killer did fire from close range, why aren't there any powder burns?"

 

[mattman8907]

O'BRIEN: I don't know.

 

[Athena28]

ODO: But we'll find out.

 

[May 20]

EZRI: What was the time of death?

 

[Oddish]

BASHIR: "0317."

 

[Orac]

Ezri: That's only 10 minutes after I left.

 

[Oddish]

SISKO: "Was he alone?"

 

[Orac]

Ezri: I didn't see anyone, but I wasn't here for very long.

 

[Athena28]

SISKO: What do we know about Ilario, outside of his service record?

 

[Orac]

Odo: Not a great deal. He's only been on the station for 10 days.
