While the Cpt Talisa Ren goes on a vacation, her ship USS Avatar is tasked with supporting smooth-running of a diplomatic conference near Neutral Zone. Even Romulans are invited as tension rises between the Federation and Klingon Empire.

Stardate 2372, the war with the Klingon Empire seems to be imminent and the Federation is looking for new allies. Even Romulans seem to be an acceptable match as they are one of the species invited to a diplomatic conference held at star-base near Neutral Zone. USS Avatar is responsible for the smooth-running of the peace talks. Since Captain Talisa Ren is not much of a fan of diplomatic talks, she takes shore leave on an uninhabited planet. "Secret games" are part of the film series "Star Trek: Between the Lines" and the sequel of the Metren Incident (2007).—Anna Stefankova
