“A., B., and C.”
My third episode is “A., B., and C.” because it helped to
solidify the potential with twists and turns.
Colin Gordon’s #2 fails. “I know I’m not indispensable ”
When he fails, I like to think that he was reassigned. He’s a good company man,
overall. That’s why he comes back later as #2, several episodes later, in “The
General,” one that’s really not even about #6. His reassignment experiment
needed a realistic population of people and the Village is a good place for
experiments.
This episode focuses on if #6 resigned to sell out, to whom would
he sell out and what would he sell?
#14: “We all make mistakes. Sometimes we have to.” Clearly,
especially with all the threats that #2 makes to her, she is just another one
of those people doing her job. Where is the line drawn about doing one’s job
compared to ethics?
While this episode may not be very deep, it is a great extension of the spy show. It’s a bridge, in a
way, from Secret Agent Man to the
deeper themes of The Prisoner.
