The question is, does ZM73 recognise the face
in the mirror staring back at him? Or is it simply because of what has been
done to him this time, that he breaks the mirror with his fist? It might well
be both. ZM73 knows that he can no longer trust his former colleagues, having
already faced two Colonels since his abduction to The Village. And now look
what they have done to him! But here is a cunning twist, because as ZM73 has
now the outward appearance of the Colonel, he cannot go running to the Colonel
because of the current situation he finds himself in. So there has to someone
else, that someone else is Sir Charles Portland. Why it had to be the Colonel
who had to undergo the mind transference with Number 6, and not an ordinary
field agent is unknown. Perhaps it was a case that no-one else could be
trusted. But in any case, ZM73 now finds his mind inhabiting a body not to
liking, the Colonel’s. No wonder he broke that mirror!
Be seeing you
