The Prisoner

After resigning, a secret agent finds himself trapped in a bizarre prison known only as The Village.

Number 2 believes that Number 6 resigned because he was going to sell out. Using dream manipulation, Number 2 tries to determine which one of three possible candidates Number 6 was dealing with.

Number Six wakes up with a new identity. Now hes Number Twelve. Worse, Number Two asks him to impersonate someone--Number Six. But the new Number Six is more like him than he is.

Number 6 wakes up to find the Village totally deserted.

Inspired by a large chess game with people taking the place of the game pieces, Number 6 formulates a new escape plan with some compatriots.

Number Six hears of an assassination plot against Number Two, but its the new Number Two doing all the plotting against the retiring Number Two.

With his mind transferred to another body, Number 6 wakes up in his London flat and cant convince his colleagues who he is. He takes off to Austria to find the one man who can help him, the person Number 2 wants him to find.

Back in London, Number 6 is trying to track down a crazed scientist who is protected by his homicidal daughter.

After witnessing the trials of Number 2 and Number 48 and meeting the President of the Assembly, Number 6 escapes during the chaos that follows.
