DISCUSS BLOOD DONATION
Have you heard of bloodmobiles?
You bet! Three days ago we were guarding one, three of the "outsorts" attacked poor nurse…
"Outsorts"?
People with inherited illnesses, those "genetic traitors".
So it's true… I thought it was an evil joke.
Joke! Three labor camps are already open and welcoming the "outsorts"!
Oh…
DISCUSS WAR
What's up front?
What do you mean, Hector?
War is the cauldron of violence devouring our age…
You're a poet, Christopher.
Those are the words of a pacifist we sent to jail for 20 years. He was handing out anti-war flyers.
Oh…
DISCUSS BEATING HIS WIFE
I saw you beat your wife!
What do you care about my life?

ASK WHAT'S UP (-500 reputation points)
Christopher, you must be aware of my job responsibilities. I can't let the fact of domestic battery go unnoticed.
I'm stranded here, Hector. It's not what you think it is.
But, it's hard to explain. I beat my wife, because she wants it.
I don't understand, Christopher. Is this some sort of a joke?
No, I mean it. Her job is very emotionally demanding, and at home she… You must know, I'll never hurt her!
It's hard to believe, but I'm against violence. There's too much of it in my life.
What do you mean?
I've been a police officer for over 15 years. You should know what I mean. People are afraid of cops. My subordinates are afraid of me. I'm afraid of my boss.
My boss is afraid of his boss, his boss is afraid of the minister… And it's the same in any government body. A chain of fear and cruelty.
If only you knew, how tired I am of all this…
Honestly, I'm surprised…
My father has been beating me all my childhood. Thought that to be the best way of upbringing.
When I turned 15, I escaped into the army; dreamt of coming back and kicking his ass. But after I came back, I realized it wasn't good life that turned him into this, and that I couldn't change him.
He believes a strong one should show his strength, or get eaten.
You don't see him very often, I believe?
That's right. He moved far away recently.
He still loves a good fight, even though he's almost 90.
What? 90?!
But what about euthanasia?
Oh, I meant 70.
That's enough.
Wait, I got an invitation… I won't make it till fall. Please!
That's enough, Hector.

Hector! Do you realize the difference between us? You're a nobody, I'm a Ministry of Order Officer! Don't try to press me.
END CONVERSATION
That's none of my business, I'm sorry.
ASK ABOUT FATHER
Christopher, it's vital for me, if your father really is almost 90, I have one question. How did he avoid euthanasia?!!
I told you, you're wrong.
I can tell it's time to put you to rest. You're half-deaf!
ASK ABOUT FATHER
Christopher, it's vital for me, I have proof you're covering up for your father!
How did he avoid euthanasia?!!
You have me cornered, Hector.
He is alive, indeed. But I can't tell you anything else.

My wife works in the euthanasia center, and I served at the border. I've got connections.
Together, we saved all of our elderly relatives, and shipped them abroad.

Save me!
Talk to my wife. Without her, you're doomed. I can't order her, she risks more than just her job.

Hector! Do you realize the difference between us? You're a nobody, I'm a Ministry of Order Officer! Don't try to press me.
MAKE HIM HELP
You must help me, or I'll send you to jail! I've got evidence, your father's letter!
Okay, Hector. But beware, you might regret this.
…
When it's time for you to go to the Euthanasia Center, I'll make sure you don't make it to there.
What will you do to me?
Afraid? Too late for this, Hector. First you threaten me, now you're scared?
After you get in our car, you'll have a heart attack, and we'll take the body to the morgue. Any body. My sister works there, so it shouldn't be a problem.
What you are to do with your life after that, is none of my business.

ASK WHAT HE WANTS
What do you want?
About euthanasia… You've made a deal with Gertrude. We'll help you.
Here's the plan: you'll be taken to the Euthanasia Venter. Don't worry, the policemen will bit you up a bit to make it look believable.
Gertrude will meet you at the Center. She'll use sleeping aid instead of poison. You'll wake up on a boat.
Take money with, Hector. The more you have, the better off you'll be on the other shore.
Can I take my cat?
Your cat? Should I order a personal jet for it?
What do you think of airborne animals, Hector? I've heard the Minister of Economy has a personal plane for his dog.
I mean it! It's important for me!
Okay. Don't see why should this be a problem.
DISCUSS AGREEMENT
I'm here to discuss our agreement.
I have nothing more to say, Hector. As soon as your time is up, or you volunteer for the Blissful Sleep, my guys will take care of it.
We'll see, it might even be my shift. In any case, you won't get to the Euthanasia Center.
Will you stick to your word?
I will.
DISCUSS HARD LABOR
You said you were uncomfortable at your workplace.
My coworkers are aggressive idiots. My boss is always furious, and those doughnuts he keeps munching on have made him huge.
Are you afraid of him?
I suppose. Yes, you're right.
OFFER WAY TO COPE WITH FEAR
Christopher, you told me you had issues getting along with your boss.
I've a great potion against fear. Would you like some?
What harm could it possibly do… Hand it over.
