MEP for Obersaxony and leader of the East German Green Party, Emilda Kleist, asks Alan to become the final German MEP to sign off on the route for the new autobahn.

As part of one of an elaborate scheme, Alan joins a group of resurgent neo-Nazis after infiltrating their headquarters.

After purchasing Robert Maxwell's yacht, Alan finds an opportunity to profit off his purchase.
