I can see why this wasn't transmitted as the second episode!
I look behind me, what do I see? A pair of golden wings seem to be attached to me.

A message in a bottle, er, in a dead man...
*No, I am not. I am not expendable, I'm not stupid, and I'm not going.*

This episode was clearly supposed to be second, but maybe just as well it wasn't. I'm not saying it's poor, it's just very deep.
Vote Og.

Dutton's a dead man it would seem!

Strangely, I am finding parts of it a bit too literal. Dutton is an early version of No 6 and thinks he is doomed so we are to think this is no 6's fate if he doesn't reveal what he knows...

I don't think you're supposed to...it's all part of the game.

Yes, and that's against their "rules", so against their so called democracy...
