Frank, you must be very strong now. Do you see this letter?

Frank, you must be very strong now. Do you see this letter?
Oh, it's from the Ministry?
What's the point? Why do we get a letter from Vice?
Please calm down. Promise me to think first and then speak, okay?
I always think first.
I promise.
The Ministry has Kim taken to a re-education camp.
Why is that?
They are not allowed to do that!
Apparently she's... they've got her... oh Frank, I don't know either.
You can't even pronounce it?
Well, Kim... she has been seen, in public...
... she kissed a - another woman!
That's why you should promise me to stay calm.
The damage has already been done.
The Ministry has it in for Kim - and for us, too.
We have to agree to this!
And maybe she can be cured in the re-education camp.
I want to get upset! We're talking about our daughter!
Frank, please don't get irrational.
Well, yes. I have tried.
Please don't get upset and think about it first.
You can't be serious!
If you say so.
And besides - this doesn't have to be a bad thing.
Everything about Kim is good, just as she is.
Kim has problems integrating herself.
You are her mother! Act like it!
I've been thinking about nothing but our daughter's future for weeks.
But Kim doesn't help me with that. She claims that society must change.
Instead of making some effort to integrate.
That's not how this system works.
I'm just afraid that she might change.
But would that be so bad?
Kim must change.
So what?
Oh...
I, well...
... this is... bad.
You knew about it?
Why didn't you say anything? We could have made a plan together!
I just suspected it.
But... I'm her mother!
And why, by the Great Leader, should she be picked up?
... well, she's probably...
But I will probably have to live with the fact that she no longer talks to me.
Frank, please talk to Kim. You have a good relationship with her.
When I tell her, she totally shuts down.
I don't know...
I'll talk to her.
If anyone can convince them, it's you.
We simply have no choice. The Ministry is coming for her soon.
Maybe you can convince her that this is for her own good.
I'll try.
No way! I won't let them!
Otherwise, it will drag us all down with it.
Department of Violations of Community Values.
Thank you.
The police will pick her up. Soon.
I should know that!
In the end, we would be telling her that she is not allowed to be the way she is.
But she must not be the way she is. She will destroy us all if she continues like this.
Thank you, darling. We all want what's best for her.
Maybe we can help her lead a happy, integrated life.
Sabine, don't I always think before I speak?
I promise you, Sabine.
Excuse me? Why do they want to re-educate Kim?
Excuse me? The ministry wants Kim...
How can you stay so calm, Sabine?
Maybe you're right - she could use professional help.
And what is so bad about it?
I had no idea.
I don't know if this is really the right way, Sabine...
All right, Sabine. I'll talk to her.
