He asks basically RIGHT AFTER you encounter EZIC. And if you do tell him the whole truth he arrests you. Even the most incompetent of Officers realize that no real spy would do this. But if he were with EZIC then he'd be around to make sure the player plays with EZIC and if they can paint Artozka even worse than it really is it gives the player more sympathy toward EZIC.]]

--> ''Glory To Arstotzka.''

* That, or [[spoiler: as a fellow smuggler. Either way, it lessens any FridgeHorror if you cross the Orbistran border, but don't have any money left over for you and your family, let alone any stated place to live or work]].

*** Ultranationalist yes, [[GodwinsLaw Neo-Nazi...]] [[RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement that's kind of stretching it]]. There's absoultly nothing even hinting of Arstotzka being one of [[ThoseWackyNazis Those Wacky Nazi States]], or [[ANaziByAnyOtherName A Nazi State By Any Other Name]].

It doesn't have any lyrics, and when it plays on national T.V./school/etc. everyone stands in solemn silence until it ends.

** And one day it will be free from Obristani tyranny!

** EZIC's goals and ideology are rather vague, but they mention "restoring" Arstotzka. Restoring a country to its former glory is often the goal of ultra-nationalists and is consistent with a neo-Nazi ideology. Furthermore, [[spoiler: late in the game, EZIC wants you to disrupt the border negotiations between Arstotzka and Kolechia, stating that the Arstotzkan government is going to cave to Kolechian demands. Ultra-nationalists would view any concessions of "rightfully Arstotzkan" territory as treason.]]

While Jorji might just be the friendliest person in the entire game, and his act appears to be genuine, it's also the reason he is so successful. He befriends the inspectors and gets an easier time. While other contraband smugglers are somewhere between shocked to be caught, to outright insulting, Jorji is always a nice guy, which seems to work since [[spoiler:he's able to bribe his was out of detainment multiple times, and still gives the player money on the last day, even if the player hasn't helped at all.]]

*** He'll make sure - and if he's another EZIC collaborator, he'll do the same thing to him. Again, and again, and again. It's a vicious cycle, but one where he's just fine.

*** But if the position is so randomly assigned again, who's to know it won't be an actual EZIC collaborator this time ?

*** It isn't incompetant in the PeoplesRepublicOfTyranny that is [[{{Ruritania}} Arstotzka]]. Ruthless, yes. Short-sighted, yes. But it's likely that he only acts this way because the guys in charge of the country are all paranoid dictators who command that their secret police round up as many potential collaborators as possible, and accept arrests if they even have the flimsiest shreds of evidence against them: and since you just [[spoiler: handed over the EZIC documents]], [[DisproportionateRetribution that's all he needs to send you to the gulags,]] post another guard who won't cooperate with the EZIC, [[MoneyDearBoy and get a nice bonus to his state paycheck]] for getting rid of another "collaborator" with the EZIC.

** Which is still a highly incompetent move. Considering that the inspector has the EZIC decoder and coded document at that point, the smart thing to do is to tell the inspector to have the EZIC agents detained.

** That, or [[KickTheDog he just wants an excuse to punish anybody he could pin as an EZIC collaborator]]. Given he's ThePoliticalOfficer, and this is [[PeoplesRepublicOfTyranny Arstotzka]], [[SlidingScaleOfIdealismVsCynicism I think it's the likelier case]].

Seriously, the guy is rather dumb, [[spoiler:arresting you if you give him the EZIC documents. An EZIC player would probably not hand over the stuff, while someone who doesn't want to involve with them would]].

Given Jorji's occupation as a [[spoiler:contraband smuggler]], and knowledge of the inspectors skills, it's quite possible that he'll have the inspector [[spoiler:working as a passport forger (or with one), in order to make papers that can cross any border]]
