“I wish it
had been real.”
{Cathy - Living In Harmony}
Here is a woman who is rather unique in The Village, because
she is the only woman to have fallen for Number 6, oh not Cathy, but Number 22.
Nadia might have flirted with the Prisoner, but there was never any danger of
her actually falling for him. The maid-Number 54 was a flighty piece, but that’s
all it was, there was no relationship between her and Number 6, save for Number
6 being the resident of 6 Private and she the maid. Its much the same with
Number 8 in ‘Checkmate,’ she thought she was in love with Number 6, and he with
her. But the love was induced, by way of hypnotism.
Cathy does have one thing in common with Nadia however, Cathy
planned to escape with The Man With No Name, and would have done if it hadn’t
been for the Kid’s untimely intervention. But then none of it was real, Cathy wasn’t
going to escape Harmony with the Man with No Name because Cathy didn’t really
exist. And there was never any chance of Number 22 escaping The Village with
Number 6. But she had wished it had been real, and in those words along with
love, was the desire to escape!
Be seeing you
