STAR TREK: DS9 “THE ‘FINAL CHAPTER’ SCRIPT LOT”

A lot of three scripts in chronological order that begin what is referred to as the “Final Chapter” of Deep Space Nine, the first three of a nine episode story arc that finishes the series. This lot is significant that it is a series within a series, all originally being named to evoke imagery of an eclipse. The first script is “Penumbra”; wherein Ezri Dax” (Nichole de Boer) leaves the station to locate “Worf” (Michael Dorn) who is missing after a battle with Jem'Hadar forces, “Captain Sisko” (Avery Brooks) proposes to “Kasidy Yates” (Penny Johnson) and “Dukat” (Marc Alaimo) returns to Cardassia to seek the help of “Damar” (Casey Biggs). The second script was originally called “Umbra” but was renamed “Til Death Do Us Part”; wherein “Captain Sisko” (Avery Brooks) agonizes over a vision sent to him by The Prophets and “Commander Worf” (Michael Dorn) and “Ezri Dax” are still being interrogated by the Breen. The final episode of the trio was originally called “Eclipse” but was changed to “Strange Bedfellows”; wherein the Breen and the Dominion form an alliance, “Worf” (Michael Dorn) and “Ezri Dax” (Nicole de Boer) are sentenced to death and “Kai Winn” (Louise Fletcher) turns her back on The Prophets and vows service to the Pah Wraiths. The scripts for ‘Umbra’ and ‘Eclipse’ are first drafts and feature the episode name and the date they were written on the front, a title page with the writer and director, the episode title stated again and the episode number. The script for “Penumbra” is a final draft so it features all of these things, a graphic of DS9 itself and the title of the show on the cover and features revision dates on the first page, a list of characters, a list of sets used and even a pronunciation guide of names and terms used.
