It is Number Twenty isn’t it? I only ask
because I cannot quite make out your number. Oh well its immaterial, it’s you
that matters not your number. You’ve done well for yourself haven’t you,
promoted from Manager of the Labour exchange, to assistant to Number 2. But you
didn’t appear to hold that position for very long. Because apart from seeing
you with Number 2 when you suggested that there are methods not yet been used,
we don’t see you again with Number 2, however we do see you in the Control
Room. What was it, demoted to being an assistant to the Supervisor? Well I can
see the point in that. Number 2 was a very competent administrator, but was
hardly overworked when it came to dealing with Number 6. All he had to do was
to oversee that Number 6’s escape plan went according to plan, and he certainly
didn’t need you for that. But perhaps there was another reason for your sudden
demotion. What was it you suggested to Number 2?
“There are methods we haven’t used
yet of course. He’ll crack.”
Number 2 didn’t take well to that at all,
he didn’t want to end up with a man of fragments. He might have thought the
idea of such methods a little extreme. Perhaps it might have been better for
you to have kept your opinion to yourself. But then I suppose that as Number
2’s assistant you would be expected to make suggestions, and express opinions,
to offer advice. However on a personal level it might have been better for you
to have remained in office at the Labour exchange. After all, as manager there you
were the boss.
Oh just one other trivial matter, why didn’t
they let you use your own voice?
Be seeing you
