Number Six and Number Two in “Unfinished Business”

Number Six

Has it ever occurred to you that you are just as much a prisoner as I am?

Oh! My dear chap, of course--I know too much. We're both lifers. I am definitely an optimist. That's why it doesn't matter who Number One is. It doesn't matter which "side" runs the Village.

Number Six

It's run by one side or the other.

Oh, certainly. But both sides are becoming identical. What in fact has been created: An international community -- a perfect blueprint for world order. When the sides facing each other suddenly realize that they're looking into a mirror, they will see that this is the pattern for the future.

Number Six

The whole Earth... As the Village?

That is my hope. What's yours?

Number Six

I'd like to be the first man on the moon.
