I'm interested in establishing "what the Project told the team about the Paperclip project":
  • the team's part in all this
  • why we kidnapped these people
  • their choices after awakening
  • what they are expected to do 5 years after an Atomic War
  • what can the team tell them ... and not tell them
  • where are the elites going to end up, and why there?
  • do they get coveralls, machine guns, and armored cars like the non-doctorate-level team?

The Project's reasons for Operation Paperclip should sound well-thought-out and benevolent. Actions like kidnapping have to be presented as "better than any non-violent alternative".

Still remains in the vein of the established modules. Team wakes thinking they are going to have a relatively simple mission (exception B&B ofcourse) and find themselves alone and in a much larger, more complex situation than anticipated. The loss of the project support is just the icing.
