"Whispers" Line-by-Line!

Greetings, programs!

We recently completed our "Basics Line-by-Line" threadhttp://www.trekbbs.com/showthread.php?t=145092 over in the Voyager forum.

After each completed thread, I, or my youthful ward LeadHead, randomly pick someone who participated in the thread to choose the next episode we do. And random.org was kind enough to choose yours truly to pick the next episode! I have chosen Deep Space Nine's "Whispers" as our next line-by-line adventure.

For any unfamiliar with our "game," you are asked to post only a single line (defined as one character speaking without interruption by another character) per message. You can post as often as you like, but someone else must post a line in between your posts.

As before, at the conclusion of this thread, we will pick someone at random from among all the participants to choose the next episode we do.

Enjoy!

[Runabout Cockpit]

O'BRIEN: Computer, set heading one four zero mark three two.
 
O'Brien: Open a new file, computer. O'Brien, personal log, stardate 47581.2. I've got to try to set the record straight about the last fifty two hours. I don't know who's going to hear this. I don't even know if I'll be alive by the time this log is recovered. I figure they'll be coming after me. If I'm right about this whole thing, they won't want me to warn the Paradas.

Coffee, Jamaican blend, double strong, double sweet.

I wish I could tell you who they are. That's part of the puzzle I haven't figured out yet. Part of the puzzle, hell. None of this whole damn thing makes any sense. I'm trying to remember the first time I noticed that things were wrong. It seems to me it was...yeah...

[O'Brien's bedroom]
O'Brien [OC]: It had to be the first morning after I got back to the station.
(He reaches for Keiko but she's not there.)
 
^ Finishing...

O'Brien gets up and enters the main living area. Keiko and Molly are eating at the table.

O'Brien: What are you two doing up so early?

Keiko: I have a lot of work to catch up on at school. Thought I'd get an early start.
 
O'BRIEN: Huh?

(Man, I must have picked an episode everybody hates at the rate this one is proceeding. :) )
