What are they up to next?
KITTELHAUS
You're really alarming us—what is it?
PFEIFER
[Still confused.] I never saw the like. Good Lord—The superintendent himself … they'll catch it for this yet.

What's the matter with you, in the devil's name? Is any one's neck broken?
PFEIFER
[Almost crying with fear, screams.] They've set Moritz Jaeger free—they've thrashed the superintendent and driven him away—they've thrashed the policeman and sent him off too—without his helmet … his sword broken … Oh dear, oh dear!
