The
Prisoner is put on trial, as though what he has already been put through has
not been a trial for him! His crime is the possession of a radio, although the
Prisoner had no radio of his own, there being no radio he could have borrowed,
so when acquiring one he made a positive effort against the community. But the
one question the prosecutor did not ask the Prisoner is, where did he get the
radio in the first place? Because no matter what Number 240 thought, someone in
The Village had a radio, and that person was Number 34! Unless of course both
the body and the radio were planted so Number 6 would wake up on the beach that
morning to discover the body, and find the radio. But why? Was it simply part
of an elaborate plan to put the Prisoner-Number 6 on trial, to what final
purpose? It seems such an elaborate plan to go to. But then that’s Number 2 for
you, he/she goes to such lengths just for very little gain!
Be seeing you
