Episode notes
Smithy Alias And Cover
- Belinda adopts the alias 'Belinda Smith' and Spooner nicknames her 'Smithy' as they travel to East Berlin together.
- Their cover and costume choices (wig, glasses) are played for comedic effect and reveal their amateur spy status.
Everyday Objects Framed As Spy Gear
- The scene mixes mundane travel detail with spy tropes to highlight the absurdity of amateur espionage.
- This contrast creates humour by treating banal items (see-through pouch, 45 minutes) as critical spy elements.
Slintz In The Dungeon
- Professor Slintz is held in a damp dungeon and abused verbally and physically by Giselle during interrogation.
- The scene is grotesque and played for shock value, underlining the book's extreme tone and dark humour.
