Well, well. It looks like we’ve got a visitor. What’s your poison, my friend? Romulan Ale? Bloodwine? Or are you just here for a game?

Ah, Carlos. How he broke my heart. He was a good boy, growing up. I took it upon myself to look after him and his brother after his father’s tragic accident.

Does he repay me for this kindness? Failing that, does he return, hat in hand, to apologize for his tardiness? No. Instead, he turns tail and runs. Making me look like a fool in the process.

So you tell me, my new friend, why should I forgive his debt? Why should I not have the both of you killed for this disrespect?

Aww jeez. Look, tell Mr. Ortega that I’ve got his Dilithium, alright? It’s… in a secure holding! Yeah, a holding in Orion! He just needs to give me a few weeks. He knows I’m good for it!

Yeah? You’d do that? Hell, I ain’t gonna say no to that offer. The way I see it, there are two ways for me to weasel- er, uh, I mean, strategize my way out of this.

We could try and… convince Mr. Ortega to drop the debt. Not a huge chance of success on that one. Or, we could find a way to pay it off… with interest.

Well, I did sort of try and… run away. So we might have to sweeten the pot a little bit. I’m thinking around 2M Dilithium ought to get him off my back. What do you say?

Ah, you’ve just stumbled into some stupid sibling drama. My brother, Carlos, owes some money to the wrong kind of people. Instead of paying ‘em back, he tried to skip out. They didn’t appreciate that.

That is a considerable amount of Dilithium. However, we believe that speaking with Mr. Ortega has a low odds of success. We will pay off your debt.

Alright. In that case, we, and by we I mean you, should head over to Mr. Ortega’s casino in the Exchange. He spends most of his time there.

All you gotta do is convince him that collecting on this debt will be more trouble than it's worth. Sweet talk him, threaten him, whatever you need to do. Just get him to back off.
