Germany does not want to accept he is stuck here with no way out, but he is also too rational to let his emotions get the better of him.

Still, when the man who is obviously a reporter of some sort approaches, Germany is cautious. His experience with the press is that they have megalomaniac tendencies.

"For what purpose, Mr. Newspaper?" he asks. Even if this reporter is not a normal megalomaniac Mr. Newspaper, Germany is still going to call him that.
