“She’s lost him!” But it’s only temporary.
There
might be the enjoyment of a car chase in ‘The Girl Who Was Death’ when Mister X
is the hunter on the trail of the Girl, but there is also a sort of car chase
in ‘Checkmate,’ and for once Number 6 is the hunted! Number 8 is put on the
trail of Number 6 by the doctor who has had her hypnotized into believing she is
in love with Number 6 and he with her. Number 6 steals a taxi and Number 8 steals
another and goes after him but how she manages to lose him I don’t know seeing
as The Village is small enough, you’d think it would be difficult to lose
anyone. At one point Number 6 takes a side road and Number 8 drives on
seemingly out of The Village and along the driveway towards…..towards where?
But there’s no danger of interference as Number 2 wants this new device {the
reaction transmitter} to have a proper test. There is also the question of
love, Number 8 declares her love to Number 6, and sees how they could be happy
together. Whilst the Girl in ‘The Girl Who Was Death’ having declared her love
for him, would probably love him to death!
Be seeing you
