Ziyal has seen a change in her people since the IFAC. Sure, some Cardassians have gotten over-competitive, but she also notes excitement over the games has united her people and given them joy. She wants to find a way to expand that beyond the IFAC. You share the competitive sports histories of Earth and other Federation worlds with her. Together, you come up with ways to incorporate some of those ideas into Cardassia's own sports traditions, creating new games and leagues. You and your away team meet with Ziyal, but struggle to come up with any concrete ideas.

The way his people took to the IFAC seems to have been a surprise for Garak, who shares that it motivated him to create new uniforms for his people. However, trust for the simple tailor seems to run low and he asks you to help him. Your away team sees one of Garak's prototypes and notes the effort and care he's put in. They use word of mouth to garner the interest of not only Cardassians, but other factions as well. Your away team takes suggestions from Quark to promote Garak's uniforms, advice he provides as a price. Garak is made a laughingstock among his people.

Your away team visits several remote colonies and finds multiple quality candidates. They take footage and information on these candidates bacj to Cardassia Prime, where several naysayers seem intrigued.

You hear of clandestine fight clubs, saying they are an offshoot of the IFAC and a way to settle disputes with fists. But when a match between a Bajoran resistance fighter and a Cardassian legate instigates an all-out brawl, you are asked to step in. Your team observes these matches from the shadows, ensuring violence doesn't break out. They pick up on certain spectators using the match to stir dissent for their own amusement - or benefit. You call them out and they are ultimately chased off. Qn visiting these clubs, your identity is quickly sussed out. The already tightly—wound spectators turn their intensity on your team.

The Cardassians are ready to ensure that the next IFAC is a true display of Cardassian strength and prowess, and they'll make it happen, no matter what. When rumors of their extreme methods reach Ziyal, she enlists your help. Your team first tries to convince the Cardassians with simple diplomacy. When that fails, they move to use scientific evidence to show how these intense training methods actually produce worse competitors over time. Though stone—faced, they agree. When your away team tries to give their input during an intense training session, a group of hulking Cardassian athletes surround them in an attempt at intimidation. It is highly effective.

Your away team answers the changelings' questions and provides them with information on the living and training environments of many solid species, information which they use to tailor their training facilities. Members of your away team are finding it too difficult to put themselves in the shoes of a species that is liquid by nature and for whom many everyday experiences of solid lifeforms would have to be explained.

During and after the competition, murmurs of discontent rippled through athletes who are also Starfleet personnel.

The officers who performed these evaluations insist it is part of the responsibility of enlisted crew to be in peak shape and provide data useful to Starfleet. Your team works with representatives to ensure the rights of crew are protected. The further your crew tries to dig into what happened, the more tight-lipped the officers involved become.
