The General:

 

Number Twelve: You don't believe it. A university-level degree in three minutes.

Number Six: It's improbable.

Number Twelve: But not impossible.

Number Six: Nothing's impossible in this place.

 

Number Twelve: You'll find the Professor most interesting.

Number Six: Would I?

Number Twelve: With an extraordinary range of knowledge.

Number Six: The only subject I'm interested in is getting away from this place.

Number Twelve: Exactly.

Number Six: Who are you?

Number Twelve: A cog in the machine.

 

Number Twelve: I'll fix it, Number Six, so that you become aware that deliberate destruction of official property is a most serious offense. I must recommend the, the full penalty.

Number Six: Which is?

Number Twelve: It could be imprisonment, could be a fine.

Number Six: I'll take the fine.

Number Twelve: Yes, I thought you might.

 

Number Two: Allow me to introduce .. The General. All the professor's own work; he gave birth to it and loves it with a passionate love, probably hates it even more. That mass of circuits, my dear fellow, is as revolutionary as nuclear fission. No more wastage in schools: there's no more tedious learning by rote. A brilliantly devised course, delivered by a leading teacher, subliminally learned, checked, and corrected by an infallible authority. And what have we got?

Number Six: A row of cabbages!

Number Two: Indeed - knowledgeable cabbages.

 

Number Two: [after Number Six stumped the machine, causing it to self destruct] What was the question?

Number Six: It's insoluble, to man or machine.

Number Two: What was it?

Number Six: W - H - Y - Question mark.

Number Two: "Why?"

Number Six: "Why?"
