A Fool, Sir. Not a Rat.



DIE

DIE SIX DIE





Oh Dear Heavens, My Goodness, No —

It's in-fact German : it actually reads,

"The Six, The." ...!

WOW BOB WOW

Number Two
Were you the one in The Assembly that was talking all throughout the hymn?

Number Six
No, sir.

Number Two
You know who it was?

Number Six
Yes, sir.

Number Two
Who was it?

[Six says nothing.] 

That is cowardice!

Number Six
That's Honour, sir.

Number Two
We don't talk about such things.

Number Six
You should teach it, sir.

Number Two
You're a Fool!

Number Six
Yes, sir. Not a rat.

Number Two
A rat?

Number Six
Rat.

Number Two
[turns to face Six] 
I'm a rat?!?

Number Six
No, sir. I'm a Fool. Not a rat.

Number Two
Society...

Number Six
Yes, sir?

Number Two
Society is a place where people exist together.

Number Six
Yes, sir.

Number Two
That is Civilisation.

Number Six
Yes, sir.

Number Two
The Lone Wolf Belongs to The Wilderness.

Number Six
Yes, sir.

Number Two
You must not grow up to be a Lone Wolf.

Number Six
No, sir.

Number Two
You must conform.

Number Six
Yes, sir.

Number Two
It is my sworn duty to see to it that you do conform.

Number Six
Yes, sir.

Number Two
You will take 6.

Number Six
6, sir?

Number Two
Of The Best.

Number Six
I'm Not Guilty, sir.

Number Two
Ten!

Number Six
Twelve.

Number Two
What?

Number Six
Twelve, sir — so that I can remember.
