Citizeness No.9
You’re good at your job Number 9, I’ll give
you that. I’ve never been certain about whether you were simply assigned to
Cobb, in the same way you were assigned to Number 6, or that you had truly
intended to escape with him. Two things are certain. Firstly, it was Number 2
who gave you the Electro Pass, despite your own suggestion that you knew the last pilot of the helicopter,
which could have only one connotation! Secondly those tears are real enough.
You said that funerals always make you cry, that might be true enough, as you
didn’t know that the funeral was simply staged for Number 6’s benefit. That
Cobb was preparing to leave you and The Village! Also the list of those in The
Village who are capable of piloting a helicopter is growing! Yes you are good
at your job, but its repetitive, when we see you with Number 6 it’s as though
we are watching you with your plan to escape with Cobb. So why didn’t you
attempt to escape with Number 6? Because you knew it was a set up, that Number
6 had no chance of escaping by helicopter. But you could have played your part,
just as you played your part at Cobb’s funeral. But if you were assigned to
Cobb, were you really going to escape with him once you had obtained the electro Pass from Number 2? Perhaps Cobb led you
on, is that why he didn’t want Number 2 to be too hard on you? But then you’d
know nothing about that. Perhaps you had planned to escape with Cobb, and
that’s why your tears are real, and not those of a crocodile!
