- How many knives does regular investigator of the Congregation carry?
- Regular investigator of the Congregation always carries 2-3 knives.
- That makes him a zonder-trooper, not an investigator!
- Zonder-trooper has 3-4 knives with him, though.

The Inquisition, what a show
The Inquisition, here we go
We know you're wishing
That we'd go away
But the Inquisition's here and it's here to stay
The Inquisition, oh boy
The Inquisition, what a joy
