-Ferri Emlott was, for all intents and purposes, what the Federation wanted to see in a modern Cardassian woman. Born in the ruins of a destroyed Cardassia, and to parents who were part of the Hibalek - the service class, it was hard to blame her for any of the atrocities her species had committed.
+Tito quite literally bumped into Ferri, after which the two of them began talking. While Ferri at first was not aware of his position in Starfleet, she had identified him as an excellent source of information.

-The young woman often reflected on how lucky she had been.
-Lucky because the phrase ‘times were tough’ barely managed to convey what it was like to grow up in a Cardassia that had lost so much of its ancient and rich culture, and that grieved the loss of so many of its citizen. Despite that, it would be wrong to pretend that she didn’t know how much she had benefited from the changes that Cardassia had been forced to undergo.
-Lucky because, had Cardassia remained the same, Ferri would have grown up in her family, and learned a profession appropriate for someone like her. She would, perchance, have become a kanmaktivah - a governess like her mother had been, in service to one of the wealthier families. She would have strived to marry someone who would elevate the family further, been a good wife to her husband, and mother to her children.
-Instead, Ferri had grown up in a Cardassia where food and water were even more sparse than prior to the war. Where previously harmless diseases such as Craat’s killed the young, and where family no longer meant anything, because there was barely any family left intact. Society had crumbled, and it had taken years until a new and ‘reformed’  Cardassia rose from the ashes.
-Lucky that she, as one of the frighteningly few surviving children that made it to their teenage years, had been able to attend the University of the Union, a school her family would never have been able to afford.
-Lucky because excellent performance was now rewarded more than ever, and having finished top of her class, Ferri had been promised a bright future - she hadn’t known just how bright that future would be until she accepted an intern position at the Cardassian Intelligence Bureau.
-Even though the CIB that had replaced the Obsidian Order after its destruction, it couldn’t quite compete with the mystery that had surrounded it. Cardassia and its citizens were a lot more free than they had been before the war, but saying that she was working for the Cardassian Intelligence Bureau still put people on edge.
-As exciting as that sounded, Ferri wasn’t a glamorous spy or secret agent. She had a desk job, or rather, she assisted someone with a desk job.
-And now that someone had sent her into Federation territory.

+Ferri is summoned into Garo's office. The Cardassian isn't happy with how Ferri disregarded his wishes, and in a long conversation explains to her that Zorkal and Arys pretend to be her friends, but in truth care very little about her - after all, they left Cardassian without even inquiring about her. Ferri believes Garo, as she always has.
+During a flashback, we learn of Garo and Ferri's relationship with each other. Brought to a detainment facility as punishment for killing the two men suspected to have killed her sister Kara, Ferri was tortured by the means of isolation and starvation. During that period of time, Garo was the only one treating her like a person, and ultimately saved her from being sentenced to live in a labour camp - or so Ferri believes. In truth, Garo was just as much part of a process designed to break the young woman's spirit as the cell and the guards, his aim to form a rebellious artist into a servant of Cardassia.
+Garo sends Ferri back to Starbase 118, but cautions her not to believe that Zorkal, Arys or Aine would truly care about her, and that he is the only one she can trust.
