Number Six has a new next-door neighbour, Nadia. She befriends him and tells him that the Village is situated on the Baltic. To cover their escape plans Number Six enters the Village arts and crafts exhibition competition. His entry, called "Escape" is the inspiration for their plan to get back to London.

The new Number Two uses a new wonder drug to tap into Number Six's dreams to try and find out why he resigned. Over a period of three nights Number Six encounters A, B and C in separate circumstances, at Madame Engadine's party in his dreams. Unknown to Number Two, Number Six has realised what has happened and uses his dreams to prove that he was not selling out.

Presented with the opportunity, Number Six runs for election to the post of Number Two.

Number Six awakes one morning in a different apartment in the Village and discovers things have changed. He has a new appearance, has become left-handed and has a different taste in foods. He is no longer Number Six but now Number Twelve. A double of Number Six has been brought to the Village in an attempt to crack him. A bruised fingernail is the only clue that can help the real Number Six.

However, the Professor realises that his creation has the ability to be abused by Number Two and with the help of Number Six intends to destroy the 'General'. After their attempt fails Number Two takes Number Six to meet the 'General'.

Number Six is not himself. The Prisoner's mind is transformed in another man's body (the Colonel's) by the Village authorities in an attempt to track down a scientist, Professor Seltzman. When Number Six wakes upin his London home he has a tough task convincing people of his true identity, so he sets off for Austria to find Professor Seltzman - the only man who can help him.

Number Six thinks he has a means to tell the prisoners from the wardens.

The Prisoner finds himself a stranger in a Western town called 'Harmony'. He reluctantly takes on the job of the Sheriff in order to release a young saloon woman. As Sheriff he refuses to carry a gun until a killing spree forces him to take one up. After a gun fight with the Kid, the Prisoner decides to resign from his post but The Judge refuses to let him.

After all previous attempts to break Number Six have failed, Number Two decides the only way to obtain the information wanted is by using a system known as 'Degree Absolute'. A battle that will leave one of them dead. If Number Six wins, he will have survived the ultimate test and meet Number One.

Contnuing from ONCE UPON A TIME, the Prisoner is presented to the President of the Assembly. He watches the trials of Number Forty Eight and the resuscitated Number Two. It is now his chance to finally meet Number One. As chaos breaks out, The Prisoner leaves the Village and heads for London.
