While closing up the gym, Anisa and Jasmine tease Naomi a bit about having to leave early to meet a boy in a dinner arranged by her mother. The two women then lament their own sudden lacks of social lives, being busy with work now.

They are interrupted by a Gallah in a cheap suit, who mistakes Anisa for an Amazonian (having heard rumors of Calligenia). After that is cleared up, he introduces himself as Stan Growfwick, trader in exotic goods and health supplements.

His Lapi assistant, Alex, drags in their heavy sample case, and Stan explains about the benefits of the powdered supplements for those who work out. Anisa agrees to try some, and finds it to be not-terrible. After a bit of bargaining she agrees to let Stan sell his supplements in the Gym for a twenty-five percent cut of the profits.
