In the adventure Gunga Din, the heroes must leap off a high cliff to escape a horde of screaming cult members at the end of Act One. T h e y are bonded by this leap into the unknown, a Threshold Crossing signifying their willingness to explore the Special W o r l d of Act Two together. In the olden days of film, the transition between Act One and Act Two was often marked by a brief fade-out, a momentary darkening of the screen which in dicated passage of time or movement in space.

The key is far from being complete, but there remain no longer unconquerable difficulties .... [This cipher] of the Duke de Estrada is the most difficult, and at the same time the most important of all, as a greater number of undeciphered despatches are written in it than in any other kind of cipher. . . . The question may be asked, whether my decipherings are trustworthy? I answer with full confidence in the affirmative. I have more reason than one for doing so
