>Ask where the caped Minister got HIS sword from.
“It’s my sword, from my office... I bought it recently.”
>You'll also want to ask other people here if the Minister usually wears a cape (out of earshot of the Minister).
A few police officers seem to think he usually wears one. At the very least, nobody is adamant that he doesn’t usually wear one.
>Does the uncaped minister have an explanation for why he's not wearing one?
“You know, I just decided not to wear one the day that I came here. It was warmish that day. For winter, I mean”
>how did the uncaped Minister even know there was a doppleganger?
“Because he called the police on me! Good thing my helpers came to vouch for me.”
>the questions
Q: “What items do you usually carry with you?”
CAPED MINISTER: “Usually my sword and beacon for when I’m out and about, and these books and my ID card for when I’m going to the office. Sometimes all of it if I’m doing both.”
UNCAPED MINISTER: “Always my wallet and ID, and just whatever else I think I might need. Usually a map of wherever I’m going.”
Q: “What’s your usual schedule?”
CAPED MINISTER: “You know, spatiotemporal anomalies are a rapidly growing concern for the Government around now, so I’ve been spending a lot of time working pretty closely with the Prime Minister to figure out our party’s policies about them.”
UNCAPED MINISTER: “It really depends on the day. You know, spatiotemporal anomalies are a rapidly growing concern for the Government, so I’ve been visiting a lot of them, but I also do a fair bit of office work.”
Q: “Can you tell me a bit about your family?”
CAPED MINISTER: “Sure! I’ve got a wonderful wife, a daughter, she’s in year 12 now and wants to study law, and a young son in year 5. I’d show you some pictures but I must’ve left my wallet in the office.”
UNCAPED MINISTER: “What? Alright, I’ve got a wife and two kids. They’re both still in school. I’m sure they’d love to know I’m not missing anymore.”
Q: “What did you do yesterday?”
CAPED MINISTER: “I was poking around in here! Then I met up with Mister Koroviev down there in the evening and the rest is history.”
UNCAPED MINISTER: “Well, I spent most of yesterday poking around in the catacombs, but as you know I was captured and then spent a fair bit of time dangling over the pit.”
Q: “When was the last time you had a really good meal?”
CAPED MINISTER: “There’s this place not far from the Lower House that does really good bagels. I’d say probably one of those. I usually have one a week.”
UNCAPED MINISTER: “Hmmm, I’d say the day before yesterday. My wife made this great cottage pie. There might be some left over, come to think of it.”
>Actually, check everyone's vitals.
After you’ve asked these questions, you personally check everyone’s pulse, temperature, and breathing.
The Caped Minister pulse is fairly normal. Not sluggish, but not racing. He is sweating, but his temperature is what you’d consider a normal resting temperature. His breathing is a bit fast. Possibly out of nervousness.
His helpers both have normal heart beats, have normal temperatures, but are also sweating. Maxine breathes shallowly and quickly, but Martin’s breathing is normal.
The Uncaped Minister’s pulse hasn’t changed much since you checked last. It’s still fast. He’s relatively warm to the touch and is breathing quickly as well. If anything, it’s a little slower. It’s possible the questions calmed him a bit.
Maxine’s pulse is quick, like her breathing. She is also sweating and quite warm. Martin is also warm, but his breathing is controlled. You struggle to find his pulse, but it’s quite faint and fast when you do. You ask him if he’s feeling alright. “Just nervous,” he says. You remember reading somewhere that clowns have thicker skin than humans, on average. Maybe.
