The Arrival!
The
Prisoner, having been discharged from hospital, bursts into Number 2’s office
demanding the man now sat behind the desk to “get him,” meaning Number 2. But
the man sat behind the desk had taken his place, he is the new Number 2. When the Prisoner asked about Cobb he told the
Prisoner “We do here what has to be done. It's the law of survival. It's either
them or us.” Imprison people, steal their minds, destroy them! “Depends on
whose side you're on, doesn't it?” To which the Prisoner replies “I'm on our
side.” What side is that then, the side which runs The Village? Because if it
is, it’s a curious thing to say, if it is his former employers who put him there
in The Village as a Prisoner. Unless of course the Prisoner was once working
for The Village, but decided he’d had enough, and that there had been a
“falling out” amongst friends, causing him to resign. And if that is the case,
it’s no wonder he was brought back to The Village, as a Prisoner!
Be seeing you
