ARRIVAL
Awakening in his London home, the Prisoner finds a strange, new world outside his window. A beautiful village replaces his former city, betraying an elaborate hoax.
It won't be the only time things are not as they seem...
Taking his first cautious steps outside, the Prisoner is not aware he is being observed. Contact with the friently Village residents yields little information. Telephone calls and even taxi rides are local only.
Back in his room, the telephone rings with an invitation to the Green Dome for a meeting with Number Two. Questions will ve answered. Even more will arise ...
Behind-The-Scenes:
ARRIVAL not only sets the tone for the entire series, it brilliantly introduces The Village and the plight of the Prisoner. The opening episode invites the viewer into the mind of the Prisoner, providing the opportunity to think and not merely observe. With an extended introduction used only in this episode, Arrival is a feast for the eyes and ears. Watch for oddities like the electrician/gardener twins (clones?) and an amusing Village Map sequence in the General Store.
Episode Order Debate:
Anyone arguing that ARRIVAL doesn't belong first when viewing the series is unmutual! |
