Success
A relief
It is a moment before you can get the rats' attention […], a moment longer before they can slow down their wheels […].
"Shift over already?" A rat the size of a cat winks at you. "Time flies when you've drawn the short straw and the worst job."

|---|---|
| 1 | The cat-sized rat turns to the Grizzled Gaffer. "A'right," he says, […] trotting off.
"Don't mind them." The Grizzled Gaffer directs you to a pedal powered device. "We all have to do the worst jobs from time to time. Their turn's over. Yours, now." |
| 2 | The Masterly Machinist sighs. "For someone who boasts […] you certainly complain a lot. My grandpa whines less and he's got arthritis in both his front paws."
[…] the Machinist directs you to a pedal powered device. "[…] You'll be rescued next shift." |
| 3 | "Oh no. You poor thing." The Eager Engineer's tone does not match her words.[…] The cat-sized rat retreats from her withering gaze.[…] she certainly has the authority here.
[…] the Engineer directs you to […] "It was old fashioned […] But it works well enough." |

Gratitude
It is a moment before you can get the rats' attention to explain your intention […]
"Thanks for that," says a rat almost as large at a cat. "Did you know rats can't sweat? We just get bl___y hot!" He hops from the machine and scampers off.Description summary:

| 1 | "Don't mind them." The Grizzled Gaffer directs you to a pedal powered device. "No one likes this job, but they're the ones built for endurance. They know they're the best at it." |
| 2 | The Masterly Machinist laughs – a high, chittering noise. "If I remember right, you volunteered[…] Something about 'the only rat fit for the role'?"
Once the cat-sized rat has gone, he directs you to a pedal powered device. "Have at it then. Enjoy!" |
| 3 | "Oh bless." The Eager Engineer is entirely unsympathetic. "I was almost impressed when you volunteered for the role.[…] More fool me."
[…] she directs you to a pedal powered device. "It was old fashioned even at the Fall. But it works well enough." |

Failure
Insulted
Description summary:
The second paragraph varies based on your quality.
| Work Team | Second paragraph |
|---|---|
| 1 | The Grizzled Gaffer intercedes. "No harm was intended, I'm sure." He inclines his head, indicating that you should move away, and continues soothing the rat. "They're just a human. They don't understand." |
| 2 | The Masterly Machinist closes his eyes and takes a deep breath. "Please. Leave me to deal with this. You've done enough." From a distance, you observe him encouraging the mollified rat back to her labours. |
| 3 | "Oo er – you've only gone and done it." The Eager Engineer bares her teeth in sympathy. "We'd better make ourselves scarce. I'll get ma to calm her down." |
