The Intercept

The Intercept
by Jon Ingold
1
They have me waiting here. I can hear the guards outside and the door is locked. I dont
even have a pen, so I cant do any work. Ive got a copy of the mornings intercept in my
pocket but just staring at the jumble of letters wont do any good, it would only drive me
mad.
I rattle my fingers on the field table.
Wait (turn to 656)
2
I put my ear down to the keyhole, but theres nothing now. Probably still a guard outside,
of course, but theyre keeping mum.
Try the door (turn to 169)

Smash the window (turn to 20)
3
I put my ear to the keyhole but can make out nothing. Are there still guards posted?
Perhaps, if Hooper has managed to incriminate himself, the guards have been removed?
Perhaps the door is unlocked and they left me to sleep? I try the handle. No such luck.
The night draws on at its own pace. I suppose by morning I will know my fate.
Wait (turn to 1591)
4
Very well. I see theres no point in covering up. You know everything anyway.
Harris nods, and waits for me to continue.
There was a young man, Harris. I met him in the town. A few months ago now. We got
to talking - not about work. I said I was an accountant for a firm, just as I was supposed
to. Although he seemed to know that wasnt true. That got me wondering if he wasnt one
of us.
Harris is not letting me off any more. You seriously considered that possibility?
Yes (turn to 4139)

No (turn to 2183)
Lie (turn to 171)

At the moment when the machine halted, Peterson and Jefferies were by the work-table,
Collins and Humph were out having a smoke. I was by the front of the machine checking
over the dip-switches. Hooper was the only one around the back of the Bombe. No-one
else could have done it.
Thats not quite the same as seeing him do it, Harris remarks.
"When you have eliminated the impossible..." (turn to 230)

"You have to believe me." (turn to 3761)
"Ask the others." (turn to 4411)
6
The window is my only way out of here. I just need a way to smash it.
Punch it (turn to 951)

Find something (turn to 693)
Use something you've got (turn to 251)
7
I go over to the window and try to jimmy it open. Not much luck, but in my struggling I
notice this window only backs on the thin little brook that runs down the back of the
compound. Which means, if I smashed it, I might get away with no-one seeing.
From outside, I hear a voice. Hoopers. Hes haranguing someone, for something.
Listen at the keyhole (turn to 2250)

8
I leave the cup exactly where it is. Why? I ask coldly. Whats in it?
Lapsang Souchong, he remarks, placing his own cup down on the table with a clink.
Such a curious flavour. It might almost not be tea at all. You might say it hides a
multitude of sins. As do you, isnt that correct?
Agree (turn to 1113)

Disagree (turn to 890)
Evade (turn to 4582)
9
The frame is heavy and solid. I couldnt lift it or shift it without help from another man.
And it wouldnt do me any good here anyway. I can reach the window perfectly well.
The blanket (turn to 2541)

The pillow (turn to 1589)
Something else (turn to 416)
10
The rest of the night passes slowly. I sleep a little, dozing mostly. Then Im woken by the
rooster in the yard. The door opens, and Harris comes in. He takes one look at the broken
window and frowns with puzzlement.
What happened there?
Admit doing it (turn to 2131)

Deny doing it (turn to 2755)
Show him the component (turn to 1913)
11
Tell Hooper Ive confessed. In fact, better yet, let him see you march me off in
handcuffs. Then let him go, and watch him. Ten to one hell go straight to wherever hes
hidden that component and his game will be up.
Harris nods slowly, chewing over the idea. It isnt a bad plan even - except, of course,
Hooper has not hidden the component, and wont lead them anywhere. But thats a
problem I might be able to solve once Im out of this place; and once theyre busy,
dogging Hoopers steps from hut to hut.
Its an interesting idea, the Commander muses. But Im not so sure hell be that
stupid. And if hes already passed the part on, well, the whole thing will only be a waste
of time.
"Trust me. He hasn't." (turn to 2773)

"You're right. Let me talk to him." (turn to 513)
"You're right." (turn to 4990)
12
Yes. I suppose he was their agent. I should have realised but I didnt. Then he threatened
to tell you. I thought you would have me locked up: I couldnt bear the thought of it. I
love working here. Ive never been so happy, so successful, anywhere before. I didnt
want to lose it.
So what did you do with the component? Harris talks urgently. He grips his gloves
tightly in one hand, perhaps prepared to lift them and strike if it is required. Have you
passed it to this man already? Have you left it somewhere for him to find?
I still have it (turn to 4986)

I don't have it (turn to 3167)
Lie (turn to 3167)
Tell the truth (turn to 4986)
13
No. I have no idea.
Come now, Harris says, quite the reasonable gent. I think you can be a little more
forthcoming.
"I know nothing." (turn to 4918)

"I know where it is." (turn to 178)
Lie (turn to 4918)
14
I suppose my fist would do a good enough job. But Id cut myself to ribbons, most likely.
And the noise would be terrible. There must be a way of making this easier. Im supposed
to be a thief now. What would a burglar do?
Work slowly (turn to 1609)

Find something to help (turn to 2445)
15
I know nothing about it. My voice is shaking with anger as I try to speak. Im not
accustomed to facing off against the Commander - against any man with a gun in his
holster. I dont know what gives you the right to pick on me. I demand a lawyer.
This is time of war, Harris answers. His tone of voice has fallen down into darkness.
And by God, if I have to shoot you to recover the component or stop it falling into the
wrong hands, I will, do you understand me?
Theres an icy silence. Ive cracked him a little at least. Hes angry. He waves an
impetuous hand across the field table.

Now, drink your tea and talk.
Take the cup (turn to 3779)

Don't take the cup (turn to 1730)
16
My anger deflates like a collapsing equation, all arguments cancelling each other out. The
world, of course, owes me nothing; and I owe it everything.
Im afraid we have only one option, Manning, Harris says. Please, man. Tell us where
the component is.
Tell them (turn to 2601)

Say nothing (turn to 1149)
17
After a chance like this? A chance - however real - to save my neck? To hand it over what, to save Hoopers worthless skin?
Confess (turn to 534)

Don't confess (turn to 128)
18
I dont know what gives you the right to pick on me. I demand a lawyer.
Theres an icy silence. Hes angry. He waves an impetuous hand across the field table.
Drink (turn to 2759)

Put the cup down (turn to 1404)
19
The Captain thought it was a good scheme. Youll most likely get a promotion.
Lets hope things work out, Harris agrees darkly.
He hustles me up the steps of the barracks, keeping me firmly gripped as if I had any
chance of giving him, a trained military man, the slip. Its all I can do not to fall into the
room.
And then they slam the door shut, and it locks. How am I supposed to manage anything
from in here?
Wait (turn to 67)

Try the windows (turn to 7)
20

21
If I wanted to escape, I would have made damn sure that I could, I tell him sternly.
Well, Im afraid it is going to get worse for you, Harris replies soberly. We followed
Hooper, and he took himself neatly to bed and slept like a boy scout. Which puts us back
to square one, and you firmly in the frame. And Im afraid I dont have time for any more
games. I want you to tell me where that component is, or we will hang you as a traitor.
He passes a hand across his eyes with a long look of despair.
Im going to go outside and organise a rope. Thatll take about twelve minutes. Thats
how long you have to decide.
Protest (turn to 4699)

Stay silent (turn to 1906)
Frame Hooper (turn to 4423)
22
I dont know what gives you the right to pick on me. Shouldnt I have a lawyer?
Theres an icy silence. Hes angry at my slippery answers. He waves an impetuous hand
across the field table.

23
Well fool him. Hes waiting to be sure that Ive been strung up for this, so lets give him
what he wants. If he sees me taken away, clapped in irons - hell go straight to that
component and set about getting rid of it.
Harris gets to his feet. All right, he says. I should no better than to trust a clever man,
but well give it a go. Then, he smiles, with all his teeth, like a wolf. Hoopers in Hut 3
being debriefed by the Captain. Lets see if we cant get his attention somehow.
He raps on the door for the guard and gives the man a quick instruction. He returns a
moment later with a cool pair of iron cuffs.
Put em up, Harris instructs, and I do so. The metal closes around my wrists like a trap.
I stand and follow Harris willingly out through the door.
But whatever Im doing with my body, my mind is scheming. Somehow, Im thinking, I
have to get away from these men long enough to get that component behind Hut 2 and put
it somewhere Hooper will go. Or, otherwise, somehow get Hooper to go there himself...
Harris marches me over to Hut 3, and gestures for the guard to stand aside. Pushing me
forward, he opens the door nice and wide.
Captain. Manning talked. If youd step out for a moment?
Play the part, head down (turn to 1186)

Look inside the hut (turn to 4477)
Call to Hooper (turn to 2737)
24
Of my standing. My reputation. I dont like to talk of myself like this, but I carry on all
the same. Hooper simply cant bear knowing that, once all this is over, Ill be the one
receiving the knighthood and he...
No-one will be getting a knighthood if the Germans invade, Harris answers sharply. He
casts a quick eye to the door of the Hut to check the latch is still down, then continues in
more of a murmur: Not you and not Hooper. Now answer me. For the first time since
the door closed, I wonder what the threat might be if I do not.
Lets get straight to the point. Do you have the component? Harris demands. Do you
know where it is?
"I do." (turn to 99)

"I don't." (turn to 4289)
Lie (turn to 4289)
25
Well, then. To Hoopers dorm. Time to wrap up this little game once and for all.
I creep around the outside of the Huts. All are quiet, steel-grey in the hazy moonlight; a
few shining copper from arc-lamps strung from the trees. A few guards patrol the area at
night but not many - after all, very few know this place even exists.
Our quarters are arranged away from the House; where we sleep is of less importance
than where we work. We each have our own Hut, through some are less permanent than
others. Hoopers is a military issue tent: quite a large canopy, with two rooms inside and
a short porch area where he insists people leave their shoes. Its all zipped up for the night
and no light shines from inside.
I hang back for a moment. If Harris is keeping to the terms of our deal then someone will
be watching this place. But I can see no-one.
Open the outer zip (turn to 1816)

Look for another opening (turn to 4973)
Hide the component somewhere (turn to 4167)
26
Well?
Well be outside the door, Harris replies, seriously. The first sign of any funny
business and well have you both on the floor in minutes. You understand? The country
needs your brain, but its not too worried about your legs. Remember that.
Then he gets to his feet, and opens the door, and marches me out and across the yard. The
evening is drawing in and theres a chill in the air. My mind is racing. I have one
opportunity here - a moment in which to put the fear of God into Hooper and make him
do something foolish to place himself in harms way. But how to achieve it?
You ready? Harris demands.
Yes (turn to 3110)

No (turn to 1254)
Lie (turn to 3110)
27
You mean he didnt even hide it? Just put it in his shoe?
No, Harris replies. That isnt really what I mean. I mean, he managed to find it, by
accident, somewhere where it wasnt the night before. And at the same time, youre
sitting here with your window broken. So, I rather think youve played your last hand and
lost. Theres no way Hooper stole that component and then just left it lying around in the
doorway of his tent. No way at all. So I came to tell you that the game is up for you.
He nods and gets to his feet. Then the door closes. I am alone again, as I have been for
most of my short life.
Make your peace (turn to 2080)
28
Let me see. Theres the bunk, a bucket, nothing else. I have my jacket but nothing in the
pockets - no handkerchief, for instance.
The bunk (turn to 920)

The jacket (turn to 4073)
The bucket (turn to 2139)

I let him have his rant. He hustles me up the steps of the barracks, keeping me firmly
gripped as if I had any chance of giving him, a trained military man, the slip. Its all I can
do not to fall into the room.

Wait (turn to 67)

30
If I leave the component here somewhere it should be somewhere I can rely on Hooper
finding it, but no-one before Hooper. In particular.

Inside the porch section (turn to 1852)
On top of the canvas (turn to 1779)
31

32
Oh, yes?
Yes. For what thats worth. Theres still the issue of the component. It hasnt turned up.
He didnt lead us to it. I guess he figured you must have had something on him. I dont
know.
He looks quite put out by the whole affair. He is not the kind of man to deal well with
ambiguities and probabilities, far preferred the clarity of fact and falsehood.
Be interested (turn to 1374)

Be disinterested (turn to 1825)
33
I dont know what youre talking about.
Hoopers been taken away. They caught him, uncovering that missing Bombe
component from a hiding place somewhere, apparently about to take it to his contact.
Russell harrumphs. Quince was saying this morning, apparently his grandfather was
German. So perhaps its to be expected. See you there?
I wave to him and move away, my thoughts turning to the young man in the village. My
lover. My contact. My blackmailer. Hooper may have taken the fall for the missing
component, but if it was his recovering it from Hut 2 then I have nothing to sell to save
my reputation, if I have any left.
If he didnt, of course, and Harris was telling the truth about his sudden confession, then I
will be able to buy my freedom once and for all.
Get the component (turn to 4355)

Leave it (turn to 2357)
Act normal (turn to 3716)
34
Were still in ear-shot if they let Hooper go. Best get us inside and then we can talk, if
we must.
Ive had enough of your voice for one day, Harris replies grimly. He hustles me up the
steps of the barracks, keeping me firmly gripped as if I had any chance of giving him, a
trained military man, the slip. Its all I can do not to fall into the room.
from in here?
Wait (turn to 67)

35
I know nothing about it. My voice is shaking as I try to speak. Im not accustomed to
facing off against the Commander - against any man with a gun in his holster. I dont
know what gives you the right to pick on me. Shouldnt I have a lawyer?

36
Of my genius. Hooper simply cant stand that Im cleverer than he is. We work so
closely together, cooped up in that Hut all day. It drives him to distraction. To worse.
Youre suggesting Hooper would sabotage this countrys future simply to spite you?
Harris chooses his words like the military man he is, each lining up to create a ring
around me.
Yes (turn to 323)

No (turn to 4786)
37
Theres an icy silence. Ive cracked him a little at least. Hes angry at my slippery
answers. He waves an impetuous hand across the field table.

38
to talking - not about work, you understand. I said I was an accountant for a firm, just as I
was supposed to. Although he seemed to know that wasnt true. That got me wondering if
he wasnt one of us.
Yes (turn to 514)

No (turn to 2567)
Lie (turn to 4229)
39
Thats not important now. What matters is what you do, this evening. All you have to do
is go to the back of Hut 2. Theres a breeze-block with a cavity. Thats where Ive put it.
Ill be locked up overnight, I should think. But you can pick it up and pass it to my
contact. Hell be at the south fence around two AM.
If you think Ill do that then youre crazy, Hooper replies.
At that moment the door flies open and the Captain comes storming back inside.
Harris hustles me over to the barracks. I hope thats the end of it, he mutters as he
pushes me up the steps.
Just be sure to let him out, I reply. And then see where he goes.
from in here?
Wait (turn to 2315)

40
The blanket. Perfect. I scoop it up off the bed and hold it in place over the window. This
should do it. Then I heft back my arm, and take a strong swing, trying to imagine its
Harris face on the other side.
The sound of the impact is muffled. With my arm still covered, I sweep out the remaining
glass in the frame. Im ready to escape. The only trouble is - when they look in on me in
the morning, there will be no question what has happened. It wont help me one jot with
shifting suspicion off my back.
Wait (turn to 4164)

Slip out (turn to 1421)
41
Or be thrown into the river.
Hmm. Harris chews his moustache thoughtfully. Well, that would put us in a spot,
seeing as how wed never know for certain. Wed have to be ready to change our whole
approach just in case the part had got through to the Germans. I dont mind telling you,
this is a disaster, this whole thing. What I want is to find that little bit of mechanical
trickery anywhere. I dont care where. In your luncheon box or under Hoopers pillow,
whatever. Just somewhere, and within the grounds of this place.
"Then let him he think he's off the hook." (turn to 4703)
"Then you'd better get searching." (turn to 3955)
42
So hes an idiot, and he hid it in his shoe.
43
Maybe I can help with that.
Oh, yes? And how, exactly?
"I'll talk to him." (turn to 3539)

"We'll fool him." (turn to 3719)
44
Its no good. Nothing I can do will be any less than obvious - something appearing where
something was not there before. The men watching Hooper will know it is a deception
and Hoopers protestations will be taken at face value.
If I cant find a way for Hooper to pick the component up, as if from a hiding place of his
own devising, and be caught doing it, then I have no plan at all.
Return to my barrack (turn to 1964)

Escape the compound (turn to 4327)
Toss the component into the bushes (turn to 4909)
45
No. I passed it on to Hooper.
I see. And what did he do with it?

Lie (turn to 2421)
46
I saw Hooper take it.
I see. He is starting to lose his temper - I can see it in the creases of his face. I have
seen Harris angry a few times, with lackeys and secretaries and the like, usually over
things sent late or incorrectly. But never with us. With the brains he has always been so
cautious, treating us like children. And now I see that, like a father, he wants only to
smack us when we disobey him. I wish youd stop with your deceptions and get to the
truth, man. Every minute matters.

Persist with this (turn to 1785)
47
The component?
Yes, Harris replies levelly. The component.
Well, as soon as it went missing the machine started to malfunction. We recognised the
discrepancies in our results straight away...

Oh, of course. Well, youll hear soon enough. Can hardly hide the fact therell only be

component, but its recovery does mean I have nothing to sell to save my reputation, if I
have any left.
49
I always meant to tell you, I tell him. I thought perhaps I could find out who they
were. Lead you to them.
Harris looks at me with contempt. You wretched little man. Dont think your tongue will
be able to get you out of trouble. Youre going to pay for what youve done, and youre
going to pay dearly. If a single man loses his life because of your pride and your
perversions then God help your eternal soul. The fact is you committed a crime. If I had
any sense that he understood my predicament, and that he felt for my state of being, it
collapses like a chain with a broken link. You thought you could repair it with another,
more serious crime? He shakes his head. I thought you men were supposed to be
clever. But this is the action of a frightened woman. So Id like you to tell me, now.
Where is it?
His eyes bore into me like drill-bits.
Tell him (turn to 3846)

Blame someone (turn to 2941)
50
Yes, I considered it. He seemed to know all about me. He... he indicated he was quite
enchanted by my achievements.
The way Harris is staring at me I almost expect him to strike me, but he does not. He
replies, I can see how that must have been attractive to you, with such plain-spokeness
I almost have to ask him to repeat it.
Of course, there is no-one else in the hut to hear the remark. He will no doubt deny it
later.
Yes (turn to 4317)

No (turn to 4273)
Lie (turn to 4273)
51
There is nothing to be gained here. I have the component now; maybe it will be of some
value tomorrow.

52
I suppose I do not believe they will hang me. They will lock me up and continue to use
my brain, if they can. I wonder what they will tell the world - perhaps that I have taken
my own life. That would be simplest. The few who know me would believe it.
Well, then. Not a bad existence, in prison. Removed from temptation. A kind of imposed
monasticism, with plenty more problems to solve, and more mysteries to fathom.
I wonder what else I might yet unravel before Im done?
The door is opening (turn to 909)
53
You cant do this! I cry. Its murder! I demand a trial, a lawyer; for Gods sake, man,
you cant just throw me overboard, were not barbarians...!
You leave me no choice, Harris snaps back, eyes cold as gun-metal. You and your
damn cyphers. Your damn clever problems. If men like you didnt exist, if we could just
all be straight with one another. He gets to his feet and heads for the door. I fear for the
future of this world, with men like you in. Reich or no Reich, Mr Manning, people like
you simply complicate matters.
Then the door closes. I am alone again, as I have been for most of my short life.
54
Ive thought so before.
Let me tell you what happened this morning. Our men watching Hoopers tent saw
Hooper wake up, get dressed, clamber out of his tent and then remark with surprise as,
while looking for his shoes, he stumbled on something just at the entrance of his tent.

Be dismissive (turn to 3326)
55
Trust me. He hasnt. If I know that man, and I do, hell have wanted to keep his options
open as long as possible. If the components gone then hes committed and hell be hung
for what hes done. Hell want to wait a week at least, make sure hes escaped suspicion.
And then hell pass it on.
And if we keep applying pressure to him, you think the component will eventually just
turn up?
"Yes." (turn to 206)

"Or be thrown into the river." (turn to 1537)
56
Right now, I think you take that role, Harris, I reply coolly.
Very droll, he replies. Let me tell you what happened this morning, and see if it takes
the smile off your face. Our men watching Hoopers tent saw Hooper wake up, get
dressed, clamber out of his tent and then remark with surprise as, while looking for his
shoes, he stumbled on something just at the entrance of his tent.

57

58
Please, Harris. You cant understand the pressure they put me under. You cant
understand what its like, to be in love but be able to do nothing about it...
Be quiet, man. We know all about your and your sordid affairs. The Captain curls his
lip. Dont you know theres a war on? Do you know the kind of place they would have
sent you if it havent had been for that brain of yours? Dont you think you owe it to your
country to use it a little more?
Do I, I wonder? Do I owe this country anything, this country that has spurned who and
what am I since the day I became a man?
Yes (turn to 1510)

No (turn to 2273)
Lie (turn to 2273)
59
Just adding to the drama, I tell him, confidently. Im sure you can understand that.
I think weve had enough drama today already, Harris replies. Lets hope for a clean
kill.
room.
And then they slam the door shut, and it locks. I can only hope that Hooper bites on my
baited hook. If he thinks Im mad and bitter enough to have framed him somehow, and
arrogant enough to have taunted him with a clue to where the damning evidence is
hidden... if he hates me enough, and is paranoid enough, then he might unravel my little
riddle and go searching around Hut 2.
Thinking back, I should have wrapped the part from the Bombe in one of his shirts before
hiding it, that would have been a clever move. I really do make a terrible spy.
Wait (turn to 3844)
60
I cast around the small room. Theres a bucket in one corner for emergencies - I suppose I
could use that. I pick it up but its not very easy to heft. And the noise would be terrible.
There must be a way of making this easier. Im supposed to be a thief now. What would a
burglar do?

61
I cant remember.
He draws his gun and lays it lightly on the field table.
Im sorry to threaten you, friend. But His Majesty needs that brain of yours, and that
brain alone. There are plenty of other parts to you that our country could do better
without. Now Ill ask you again. Did you hide the component?
Yes (turn to 1790)

No (turn to 3748)
Lie (turn to 3748)

62
Enough of this place. Time for me to get moving. I can get to the train station on foot,
catch the postal train to Scotland and be somewhere else before anyone realises that Im
gone.
Of course, then theyll be looking for me in earnest. As a confirmed traitor.
Go (turn to 4327)
Don't go (turn to 797)
63
Awkward, I reply, looking him straight in the eye.
His gaze is unexpressive: Ive seen Harris broad and full of laughter, but today he is rigid,
as much part of the military machine as the devices in Hut 5.
There really isnt any time to be wasted, he says. But you know why youre here, of
course.
Yes (turn to 616)

No (turn to 578)
Lie (turn to 578)

So would you after the night Ive had.

I settle down to wait.

Night falls. The clockwork of the heavens keeps turning, whatever state I might be in.
No-one can steal the components that make the sun go down and the stars come out. I

Listen at the door (turn to 4372)
Wait (turn to 2086)
68
I wait a few minutes, to be sure Hooper and the Captain will have gone, then try the door.
Its locked, all right. Im not really one for picking locks. Never tried it. I dont think Ill
be getting out that way.

Morning comes with the call of a rooster from the yard of the House. I must have slept
after all. I pull myself up off the bunk, shivering slightly. There is condensation on the
inside of the window. I have probably given myself a chill.
Its not long after that Harris enters the hut. He closes the door behind him, careful as
ever, then takes a chair across from me.

You smell like a dog, he remarks.

What could I do? Im shaking now. The night is cold and the heat-lamp in this hut has
been removed, presumably to keep me alert and on edge. I dont want to go to prison.
You committed a crime, Harris answers. If I had any sense that he understood my
predicament, and that he felt for my state of being, it collapses like a chain with a broken
link. You thought you could repair it with another, more serious crime? He shakes his
head. I thought you men were supposed to be clever. But this is the action of a
frightened woman. So Id like you to tell me, now. Where is it?

83
The bucket? Hardly. The bucket might do some good if I wanted to sweep up the glass
afterwards, but it wont help me smash the glass quietly.
84
No. I have no idea.
Hes talking about the missing reel from the Bombe. Russell discovered it this afternoon
when the machine began producing strange results. We were all in the Hut when it
happened and it had been in place when we sat down to work. The conclusions had been
obvious to all four of us immediately, but had gone undiscussed, even after the empty
socket was located, the wiring torn on either side.
Lucky these things are easy to replace, Russell had remarked, and that had been that.
We had stopped work, sent out for a new part to be machined. And drunk our tea and
watched each other.
Come now, Harris says, quite the reasonable gent. As I told you. Were not
interviewing everyone. Only you. So. I think you can be a little more forthcoming.

Its simple enough, Harris replies. Ive seen the same story a hundred times before,
he says. A young man like yourself - clever, somewhat removed from the world. The
kind that doesnt go to parties, you might say. Who takes himself a little too seriously,
perhaps. Takes things too far. Further than a man should allow a thing to go. Thats the
story, isnt it? You took things too far, and then you couldnt take them back. And now
they have you.

I have a single moment to shout something to Hooper before the door closes.
Ill get you Hooper, youll see! I cry. Then:

"Ask not for whom the bell tolls!" (turn to 3570)
"Messy, without one missing cache!" (turn to 1265)

All right. All right. Thats exactly what happened.
Shame, he remarks. I should have left that window open and put a guard on you.
Might have been interesting to see where you went. Anyway, Im glad youre still here,
even if you do smell like a dog.

Id be happy to help, I answer, sympathetically, leaning forward across the table. Im
sure theres something I could do.

"Tell Hooper I've confessed..." (turn to 3180)

Harris smiles with satisfaction, as if your willingness to talk was somehow a result of his
clever techniques.
I see. Theres a long pause, like the endless delay between feeding in a line of cypher to
the Bombe and waiting for its valves and cylinders to heat up enough to being processing.

In case Im being followed, I divert around the perimeter of the compound. Its a much

Still, I can be confident no-one is following, as I hear nothing. I crouch down behind the
rear wall of Hut 2. The component is still there, wrapped in a tea-towel and shoved into a
cavity in a breeze-block at the base of the Hut wall.

This is all too far-fetched, Harris says. Im glad to have this back, but I need to think.
Getting to his feet, he nods once. Youll have to wait a little longer, Im afraid,
Manning.
Then he steps out of the door, muttering to himself.
113
I dont take it. Im not having my time wasted by signs and signals. Ive been waiting
here for long enough already, after being rudely pulled from my bunk. I touch a fingertip
down on the table and look him in the eye.
Whats going on, Harris?
Quite a difficult situation, this, he begins, cautiously. Ive seen him adopting this stiff
tone of voice before, but only when talking to brass. Im sure you agree.

Lie (turn to 1300)
114
I have no God to make peace with. I find it difficult to believe in goodness of any kind, in
a world such as this.
But I am no traitor. At least, not to my country. To my sex, perhaps. But how could I
support the Reich? If it were to come to power, I would be worse off than under the
already dire circumstances of my existence.
I have no place here. No way to fit. I am the intercept - caught, in the middle, cryptic and
understood only thinly, through devices and machines.
You seem very calm (turn to 1547)

You should try to escape! (turn to 80)

Messy, without one missing cache! I cry, laughing spitefully. It isnt the best clue,
hardly worthy of the Times, but it will have to do.
I only catch Hoopers reaction for a moment - his eyebrow lifts in surprise and alarm.
Good. If he thinks it is a threat then he just might be careless enough to go looking for
what it might mean.
The Captain comes outside, pulling the door to. Whats this? he asks. A confession?
Just like that?
No, the Commander admits, in a low voice. Im afraid not. Rather more a scheme.
The idea is to let Hooper go and see what he does. If he believes we have Manning here
in irons, hell try to shift the component.
If he has it.
Indeed.
The Captain peers at me for a moment, like I was some kind of curious insect.
Sometimes, I think you people are magicians, he remarks. Other times you seem more
like witches. Very well.
With that he opens the door to the Hut and goes back inside. The Commander uses the
moment to hustle me roughly forward.
And what was all that shouting about? he hisses in my ear as we move towards the
barracks. Are you trying to pull something? Or just make me look incompetent?

Dissuade (turn to 4233)

Harris considers it. I watch his eyes, flicking backwards and forwards over mine, like a
ribbon-reader trying to load in its program.

"For God's sake, man, what do you have to lose?" (turn to 4493)

Yes. Something like that. Its a very lonely life otherwise. And the work we do - well. It
only makes it worse. Theres barely a moment to oneself.
Thats how it is in the Service, Harris answers. I know you didnt sign up for it but,
well. Theres plenty of other men who didnt who are serving now, too. Now, go on with
your confession.
That gives me pause, for a moment. I hadnt thought of it as such. But I suppose thats
what this is. I am about to admit what I did, after all.
Theres not much else to say. I took the part from Bombe computing device. You seem
to know that already. I had to. He was going to expose me if I didnt.
This young man was blackmailing you over your affair?

From inspiration - or desperation, I am not certain - a simple approach occurs to me. I
toss the component away into the bushes behind Hoopers tent and return to my barrack,
wishing myself a long sleep followed by a morning, free of this business.
Satisfied, I return the short way up the paths between the huts to the barrack block and the
broken window.
Its a little harder getting back through - the window is higher off the ground than the
floor inside - but after a decent bit of jumping and hauling I manage to get my elbows up,
and then one leg, and finally I collapse inside, quite winded and out breath.

I shift in my seat. Not really. The boy was a simpleton, obviously. My intellectual
inferior. His good opinion meant nothing to be. Harris, please do not misunderstand me. I
was simply after his body.
Harris, to his credit, doesnt flinch. Well, perhaps not: but hell have nightmares of this
moment tonight. Im almost tempted to reach out and try to take his hand to worsen it for
him, but I hold back.
Go on with your confession, he replies. I shrug.

Lie (turn to 4757)
127
It doesnt matter. Just remember what I said. Ive beaten you, Hooper. Remember that.
I get to my feet and open the door of the Hut. The Captain storms back inside and Im
quickly thrown out. Harris hustles me over to the barracks. I hope thats the end of it,
he mutters as he pushes me up the steps.
And then they slam the door shut, and it locks. Thinking back, I should have wrapped the
part from the Bombe in one of his shirts before hiding it, that would have been a clever
move. I really do make a terrible spy.
Wait (turn to 4974)
128
I certainly dont. But still, Im surprised. I had Hooper down for a full-blown double
agent, a traitor. He knows hell face the rope, doesnt he?
Dont ask me to explain why he did what he did, Harris sighs. Just be grateful that he
did, and youre now off the hook.
Curiouser and curiouser. I nod once to Harris and slip outside into the cold morning air.
Hoopers confession only makes sense in one fashion - if I successfully implied to him
that I had him framed, but he did not unpack my little clue well enough to go looking for
the component. Well, I had figured him for a more intelligent opponent, but a resignation
from the game will suffice. Or perhaps he knew he would be followed if he went to
check, and decided he would be doomed either way.
Of course, however, there is only one way to be certain that Harris is telling the truth, and
that is to find a quiet moment and check the breeze-block at the back of Hut 2.

know you think its wrong, but please man, have a soul. They were going to ruin me. And
the component - its nothing. Its not the secret of the Bombe, or even of what were
doing here. Its just a part. The Germans think its a weapon - a missile component or a
detonator. Let them have it! Please, man. Just help me.
Help you? Hooper stares, as I have gone mad. Help you? Youre a traitor, Iain. Youre

Hooper.
Hooper! Harris exclaims, in surprise.
Its the truth, Harris. If Im going to jail, then so be it, but I wont hang at Traitors Gate.
Hooper was the one who told the boy about our work. Hooper put the boy on to me. I
should have realised, of course. These things dont happen by chance. I was a fool to
think they might. And then, once he had me compromised, he demanded I steal the part
from the machine.

We dont know anything, except that we have a traitor, holding the fate of the country in
their hands. No-one here is in the business of guessing, you know that. Our business is to
decode. To get to the bottom of whatevers going on. Youve not placed yourself beyond
suspicion and until you do so... Harris shrugs. Im afraid I have fewer and fewer
choices as time goes on. If that component has left these grounds then every minute is
critical.

Offer nothing (turn to 1346)
155
Thats exactly it, I say quietly. Harris. You understand. There are some things... which
can get a man into a lot of trouble. Things one shouldnt do.
Harris, to his credit, doesnt stiffen. He doesnt lean away, or remove his hands from the
table-top as though my condition might be infectious. I thought they trained them in the
army to shoot my kind on sight but he does not.
Of course, he does not offer any sympathy either. He only nods, once. The understanding
that has passed between us here is a mere turning cog in his calculations, with no
meaning or righteousness to it.
Ive seen the same story a hundred times before, he says. A young man like yourself -
clever, somewhat removed from the world. The kind that doesnt go to parties, you might
say. Who takes himself a little too seriously, perhaps. Takes things too far. Further than a
man should allow a thing to go. Thats the story, isnt it? You took things too far, and then
you couldnt take them back. And now they have you.

Only that this process is unreasonable, and I believe youre behaving like a swine.
You imbecile, Harris replies, with sudden force. He is half out of his chair. You know
the situation as well as I do, so why all this fencing? The Hun are poised like rats, ready
to run all over this country. Theyll destroy everything, you do understand that, dont
you? Youre not so locked up inside your crossword puzzles that you dont see that, are
you? And this machine we have here - you men - you are the best and only hope this
country has. God help her.
I sit back, startled by the force of his outburst. His carefully sculpted expression has
curled to angry disgust and there is spit flecking his lips. He really does hate me, I think.

He stops. Looks for a moment. Sees the bucket in my hand. Then without a moments
further thought he blows his shrill whistles and hustles into the hut, grabbing me roughly
by my arms.
Ill never know if I hadnt have waited that extra moment - maybe I still could have got
away. But, how far?
Im hustled into one of the huts. Nowhere to sleep, but theyre not interested in my

I creep forward to the tent, intent on lifting the zip to the front porch area just a little enough to slip the component inside, and without the risk of the noise waking Hooper
from his snoring.
The work is careful, and more than little fiddly - Hooper has tied the zips down on the
inside, the fastidious little bastard! - but after a little work I manage to make a hole large
enough for my hand.

Ask the others, I reply, leaning back. Theyll tell you. If they havent already, thats
only because theyre protecting Hooper. Hoping hell come to his senses and stop being

me, Im sure he will.

fellow to trip over a cable to shake out a component and have it roll away across the floor.
Have you tried looking under the thing?
Harris doesnt smile. Do you suppose we havent? Do you supposed we havent combed
every inch of this place already?
In a sudden moment I understand that his reply is a threat.

I dont think Hooper could have planned this in advance. So hed need to get word to

somewhere, and be waiting to make sure I soundly take the fall. That way, if anything
goes wrong, he can arrange for the part to be conveniently re-found.

trust me. Which means the question is, what can we do to rat him out?

even challenged him on it. I said, Whats that? Someone put a nail through somewhere

No, Harris declares, finally. I think youre lying about Hooper. I think youre a clever,

reasonable out this situation has to offer. But Im not taking it. We know you were in the
room with the machine, we know youre of a perverted persuasion, we know you have

ordered, systematic. I like my pencils sharpened and lined up in a row. I do not deal in
difficult borders, or uncertainties, or alliances. If I could, I would reduce the world to
something easier to understand, something finite. But of course, I cannot, not even here,
in this little micro-world, this safe haven from the horrors of the war.

Ive done things, I begin, uncomfortably. I didnt want to. I tried not to. But in the end,

Well, you should enjoy it. We found the missing component. Or rather, Hooper found it
for us. He snuck out of his tent first thing in the morning and retrieved it from on top. Of
all the damnest places - you would never have known it was there. He acted all surprised
about it when we jumped him, of course, as you might expect - but it was good enough

You fool, Manning, Harris curses, getting quickly to his feet. You utter fool. Do you
suppose you will be any better off living under Hitler? Its men like you who will get us
all killed. Men too feeble, too weak in their hearts to stand up and take a mans
responsibility for the world. Youre happier to stay a child all your life and play with your

Theyll have made a replacement by tomorrow, I reply. The war doesnt stop over one
missing reel.
The reel went missing from the Bombe this afternoon. The four of us were in the Hut at
the time, working on the latest intercept. It was Russell who noticed the machine
producing strange results and found the gap in its plugboard. But as to who took it - it
could have been any of us.
And indeed, it must have been. The machine had been functioning as normal when we
began our calculations. And then, a short few hours later, it was gone. We had to stop.
There was nothing more we could do until it was replaced. The part was vital, just as the
machine was vital, and so were the contents of the message, still unread twenty four
hours later.

It is precisely our ability to avoid such endless spirals that makes us human and not

Plenty of time for that later. If there is nothing there, then Hooper discovered the

confession is just a ruse to test me out. And if the component is still there - well. It will be
just as valuable to my young man in the village in a weeks time, and his deadline of the
31st is not quite upon us.
I head for my dorm, intent on a bath, breakfast, a glance at the crossword before the other
men get to it, and then on with work. They should have replaced the component in the
Bombe by now. We will be back to it, only a day behind.
And everything will proceed as before. The component will mean nothing to the Germans
- this is the one fact I could never have explained to a man like Harris despite the fact that
the principle behind the Bombe is the same as the principle behind an army. The
individual pieces - the men, the components - do not matter. They are quite identical. It is
how they are arranged that counts. The structures and patterns that they form.

The missing component of the Bombe computer is hidden in a small cavity in a breezeblock supporting the left rear post of Hut 2. I put in there anticipating a search. I intended
to dispose of it once the fuss had died down. I suppose I was foolish to think that it
might."
I thought as much. I hadnt expected you to give it out so easily, however. You
understand, Hooper has said nothing, of course. In fact, he went to Hut 2 directly after we
released him and uncovered the component. But he told us you had instructed him where
to go. Hence my little double bluff. Frankly, Ill be glad when Im shot of the lot of you

I will have to leave that question for another day. To return there now, when theyre

clue, he will have explained it to them to save his neck. They wont believe him - but
they wont quite disbelieve him either. Were locked in a cycle now, him and me, of halftruth and probability. Theres nothing either of us can do to put the other entirely into

This battle will be one of misinformation, just as the war raging in Europe and over
British skies is more one of plans and messages and interceptions than it is of bullets,
guns and planes. My only hope is create a story they prefer to the truth.
They leave me plenty of time to lay my plans. Half an hour goes by before Commander
Harris returns to the hut. He seems careful to leave the door open only for a moment, as if
worried a loose word or two might slip inside.
Hes brought two cups of tea in metal mugs: he sets them down on the tabletop between
us.
Well then, he begins, a little awkwardly. This is an unseemly situation, it would be
appear. He pushes one cup halfway towards me. A small gesture of friendship. Is that
enough to give me some hope?

We dont have to believe anyone, Harris replies sternly. I intend to know the truth and
be happy with nothing else. Right now, your story doesnt hold water. It doesnt tie up.
We know youve been leaving yourself open to accusations. Weve been watching your
activities for some time. But we thought you were endangering the reputation of this site
with the Government; not risking the country herself. Perhaps I put too much trust in your
intellectual pride.
He pauses for a moment, considering something. Then he continues:
It might have been Hooper. It might have been you. No-one here is in the business of
guessing, you know that. Our business is to decode. To get to the bottom of whatevers
going on. Youve not placed yourself beyond suspicion and until you do so... Harris
shrugs. Im afraid I have fewer and fewer choices as time goes on. If that component has
left these grounds then every minute is critical.

A neat idea strikes me. If I could place it on top of the canvas, somewhere in the middle
where it would bow the cloth inwards, then it would be invisible to anyone passing by.
But to Hooper, it would be above him: a shadow staring him in the face as he awoke.
What could be more natural than getting up, coming out, and looking to see what had
fallen on him during the night?
Its the work of a moment. I was once an excellent bowler for the second XI back at
school. This time I throw underarm, of course, but I still land the vital missing component
exactly where I want it to go.
For a second I hold my breath, but nothing and no-one stirs. Satisfied, I return the short

It wont take a moment to settle the matter. I can justify a walk past Hut 2 as part of my

Hoopers confession only makes sense in one way - and thats that he believed me, and
reasoned that he would be followed. So to try and uncover the component would have got
him arrest, to confess was just the same. He simply caved, and threw in his hand.

But too important to guess. I move back around the side of the hut.
Harris is there, leaning in against the wall. He holds a stub pistol in his hand.
Queen to rook two, he declares. I wouldnt have fathomed it but Hooper did.

A neat idea strikes me. If I could place it on top of the canvas, somewhere in the middle
where it would bow the cloth inwards, then it would be invisible to anyone passing by.
But to Hooper, it would be above him: a shadow staring him in the face as he awoke.
What could be more natural than getting up, coming out, and looking to see what had
fallen on him during the night?
Its the work of a moment. I was once an excellent bowler for the second XI back at
school. This time I throw underarm, of course, but I still land the vital missing component
exactly where I want it to go.
For a second I hold my breath, but nothing and no-one stirs. Satisfied, I return the short
way up the paths between the huts to the barrack block and the broken window.

Hooper found it for us. He snuck out of his tent first thing in the morning and retrieved it
from on top. Of all the damnest places - you would never have known it was there. He
acted all surprised about it when we jumped him, of course, as you might expect - but it

Co-operation is the only sensible approach. Anything else will be seen through and will
increase their suspicion, and risk contradiction with myself or whatever other sources
they might have. I must be transparent, open - and hope they do not ask any questions I
do not want to answer.
They give me time enough to prepare what those questions might be. Half an hour goes
