Well, I will intrude at night and get to his bedroom, then I will wake him up, covering his mouth so he can't yell for help and tell him "If you support Joon, bed things might happen to you, I hope you understand", then I knock him out and leave.
I will tell him that the Senate is very interested in having Joon win as the strong Syndicate activities seem in big part to be illegal, and that if he would help to make it happen he would likely be rewarded.
The two successes that Con manages gets him past the security systems within the household of this political commentator, and into the man's bedroom. Although brief, he seems to understand your message before you smash him unconscious. The next day, the commentator announces publicly in his daily broadcast that he has changed his stance to support Broden Abzi for the Cirdarecy.
The Syndicate is very pleased, but Con loses another morality point.
Mission successful.

Bluffing with Yagathoon about the Senate's feelings on the Syndicate does not go well. The elder statesman is fully aware of the situation on Coruscant- it is nearly unheard of! Luon is far enough away from civilized space for the Senate to not care terribly much what is going on with Luon, as long as they continue to participate in the economy.
Furthermore, as a future retiree, he does not care about rewards. He has enough to happily live on until the end of his days.
Security throws you out.
Task failure.
-
A surprising four successes on the communicator this time. Whatever was giving you trouble in narrowing down the signal types that this thing receives, you've bypassed it. You are getting closer and closer...

SYNDICATE MISSION SEVEN
Despite all you have seen, you come to realize why the Syndicate has been the most successful criminal enterprise on Luon; they destroy their competition. Anyone cutting into their business usually meets an unpleasant end. And this time, the Syndicate has asked you to be an extension of their will for this purpose. There is a drug lab in the downtown area that has been making profits and taking away from the Syndicate their usual customers. They want you to storm into the lab and kill absolutely everyone inside. You are receiving back up, here, so you will not be alone.

CLARION'S TASKS SEVEN
Clarion feels that you have collected a great deal of evidence, from her missions to the ones you run for the Syndicate. However, she needs to have a permanent log of all the messages that were sent to your communicator. The problem there is that they are deleted after a certain amount of time due to a slave chip that you discovered early on.
She thinks if she can help you with the other communicator that you have been tinkering with, she can get those messages back too, as evidence of the Syndicate's assignments. She will help with your Fix-It roll once more.
Despite Con's reasoning that these men are drug dealers and that their eradication is for the betterment of Luon, the problem here is that, first off, he is helping the Syndicate which is generally worse for Luon, and he also receives very little armed resistance! Blasting them all away is a very dark thing for a Jedi to do... and Con will lose two morality points for it. But the Syndicate is very pleased indeed, confiscating everything from the drug lab for their own use...
Mission successful.
-
With Clarion helping him, Con manages two successes on his own, and the Jedi Master adds four of her own. You have it nearly cracked, Con! If you can finish this, you can not only retrieve the deleted messages, but you can track the signal back to its originating point.
Task successful.

It is a very simple warning message from the Syndicate; it informs you that an assassin, hired by the criminal outfit associating with the drug lab you obliterated, is coming for you tonight.
You are surprised that the Syndicate has deigned to help you out, but nonetheless, it certainly means that they want to keep you around, which is what you've been trying to achieve.
Clarion is out handling a security assessment issue back on Naboo, due to her position there as an aide in the aftermath of the Federation's invasion. She expects you to have finished breaking into the communicator within the next day and will return shortly.
But not soon enough, you sense. About an hour after the Syndicate message comes for you, you hear a high-pitched whining sound, like that of an engine, coming from outside your apartment.
