How are things going with you? What's new?

How are things going with you? What's new?

I've been asking around and asking around among Division I and II staff and now I know their policy positions.

Great, Frank! Great. And what did you find out?

And then there's Sibylle Fels, of course.

What are your colleagues like, Frank? Who supports progress, who's an obstacle, who's neutral?

Susanne Beinert is backward.

Chantalle Sieboldt is full of surprises.

You will be surprised at what I have learned about Wilhelm Würger.

Hans Meinhardt is backward.

Ms. Fels? Really? Are you sure? I would have thought she was a bit corrupt, but otherwise progressive.

Susanne Beinert? Well, that's something. Still waters run deep, it seems.

Chantalle Sieboldt? No, that can't be true, Frank. You are mistaken.

Stephen Huberts.

Yes, Wilhelm Würger is bitter - we have to write him off.

That agrees with our information. Meinhardt is dangerous.

All right. Where do we go from here, will you get back to me ...?

*click*

Ms. Fels would have you believe that. But actually she hates openings.

Great, Frank! Really good. That'll helps us a lot.

Sieboldt pretends to be open to change. But actually she wants to go back to the old days.

I wouldn't have thought so. You surprise me, Frank.

Mrs. Beinert seems to be interested only in her cats, but in reality she is deeply reactionary.

Well observed, Frank. I wouldn't have thought so.

This is Frank Schwarz from Division I.

Greetings Frank!

Sibylle Fels is backward.

Sibylle Fels is neutral.

Sibylle Fels is progressive.

Really? Ms. Fels? Too bad, I would have liked to see you on our side. Well, let's see, maybe that will come.

Yes, that was my impression, too. Good to know that you also see it that way.

Who did you find out about, Frank?

Wilhelm Würger is progressive.

Wilhelm Würger is backward.

Excuse me? Würger? That's nonsense, Frank.

Wilhelm Würger is neutral.

I would have rated Würger to be even more reactionary. Well, maybe we can still bring him back.

But really. It doesn't seem like it at first, but he's interested in everything.

Well, if you say so, Frank.

Excellent, Frank. Who else do we have?

Chantalle Sieboldt is neutral.

Ah, that's good news, Frank.

Look at that. I would have thought Mrs. Sieboldt was one of us.

Chantalle Sieboldt is progressive.

Yes, the fruit reform has convinced many people.

Yes, she is an apple lover.

Chantalle Sieboldt is backward.

That's where I... that's where our Great Leader has shown a good hand for the mood among the population.

She doesn't want to commit herself.

She'll have to. In the end, everyone will have to pick a side.

In the end?

Yes, Frank. In the end.

Chantalle Sieboldt, that is. Frank, I'm already glad that we have you on board.

What can you tell me about the others?

Fine, fine. But you understand that my time is limited, and calling you multiple times on the same issue would be inefficient.

So I ask you: can you report to me on all employees in I and II or do you need more time?

I can report now.

I need even more time.

No problem, Frank. Take all the time you need.

But don't take too long.

A step in the right direction at the wrong pace is a wrong step.

I understand. I'm hurrying.

Hi Frank!

Are you finally ready to report to me on all employees in I and II?

I can report now.

I need even more time.

No problem, Frank. Everybody as they can.

But please don't call back until you're sure.

Susanne Beinert is neutral.

Yes, that doesn't surprise me. That's how I would have judged her, too.

Let's start with Susanne Beinert from department I.

Susanne Beinert is progressive.

Susanne Beinert a progressive? Exciting Frank, exciting.

Then we will probably address Mrs. Beinert soon.

Not bad. What about the rest?

Hans Meinhardt works in Department II. You won't believe what I know about him...

Hans Meinhardt is neutral.

Is that so? I would have sworn that Meinhardt is an opponent.

Not bad Frank, not bad. Who's next?

Hans Meinhardt is progressive.

Is that so? I would have sworn that Meinhardt is an opponent.

You can say that again, I think Meinhardt is a dangerous reactionary.

... But that is deceptive. He actually advocates social change in the country.

Surely I will! We'll be working more closely together very soon.

Susanne Beinert does not move with the times. Everything should stay the way it was. She is downright fanatical.

Hans Meinhardt lives the past. He would prevent any change if he could.

I think Sibylle Fels is very backward.

Sibylle Fels can't make up her mind.

I think Sibylle Fels is a friend of progress.

Wilhelm Würger is open-minded and open to new things.

Würger hates everything new. Actually, he hates everything and everyone.

Wilhelm Würger doesn't know where he stands.

Chantalle Sieboldt is neither progressive nor regressive.

Chantalle Sieboldt is on the side of progress and change.

Chantalle Sieboldt doesn't believe in the future. She is afraid of change.

I now know where each employee stands politically.

I need more time to really say something about everybody.

I now know where each employee stands politically.

I need more time to really say something about everybody.

Susanne Beinert doesn't seem to care about anything except her cats and her files.

Susanne Beinert is a friend of progress. For example, she advocates modern cat keeping.

Hans Meinhardt seems backward, but he's actually not interested in politics at all.

Hans Meinhardt seems backward at first glance...
