action
A half-full liquor bottle is on a table and next to it is a full shot glass, which Mr Kurz, who is passing by, looks with interest. His colleague Lang observes this behavior, suspects what is to come and informs Mr. Kurz about the dangers of alcohol so that it can go again without trying. But now Mr. Lang can't contain himself, sticks a finger into the glass and licks it off. That is enough to get a taste for the drink, he drinks more and more until he is completely drunk. This is the time when the soul escapes from its body.
