[net.tv] The Prisoner, episodes 16 and 17

gary@think.ARPA (Gary Sabot) (12/11/85)

Can the people who think they understand the last two episodes of The
Prisoner please explain them to me?  

In the last episode, does #6 end up as a prisoner in London (his door
opened automatically for the midget)?  How did the truck get from the
Island to London?  Was #6 #1, or was it a double playing #1?  Why did #6
trust the midget with a gun?  Why did the young revolutionary (#48)
killed in the Harmony episode reappear?  What does the ICBM have to do
with anything, and why was the village evacuated?  Who were the people
wearing the two-toned masks underground?

In episode 16, why would #2 volunteer to be in such danger?  What is the
rationale for any and all of the irrational plot developments in episode
16?

I'll post a summary to the net.
