1. After a few months of study, your stellar work qualifies you to intern at the foreign office, where you work as a secretary, (and unofficial policy advisor) to Mr. Jakob Barbel, General Undersecretary to the German Foreign Minister.
2. While there, you meet a cute American foreign service intern, (Daniel, 17, US). Fooled by a professionally secretaryish demeanor, he tries to banter his way in to an appointment w. Barbel. After two days, you give up and schedule a meeting, only for him to find your boss refers him back to you as the expert in the field he wishes to discuss.
Meanwhile, you struggle with the ethical quandaries presented by your powers. If absolute power corrupts absolutely, are you not doomed?
3. You and Daniel meet again in the corner of a dinning-in, junior people at a senior dinner, and hit it off.
4. A day or two later, he drops by your office to invite you to a major ball. You wear a silk backless gown, hugging your body and going all the way to the floor.
Flashback to earlier that day: you grapple with God, morals, and your fate, kneeled in an ancient German church.
5. After a night of delightful conversation and dancing, he sees you off. On your way home, he texts you, and you meet him at some touristy area to talk and stargaze. Neither of you can, or want to sleep, so you stay out far too late, and stumble back to his apartment.
6. You wake up naked in his bed the next morning, and find him on the couch. You shower and cook for him, dressed in one of his shirts. After a happy morning, you go your separate ways.
End of Act 1.
