Part 39: Update 17 Bonus
Update 17 BonusFollowing Romeo:

Your failure results in severe disciplinary mesaures the nature of which is best left unmentioned here.
Talking to the surly blond man:
Afternoon, comrade.
Afternoon.
I have a pistol aimed at your guts!
Go to hell!
Talking to Chapkin:
Comrade captain Chapkin?

So you're a criminal, Chapkin!
Who the hell are you?
A colleague.
