      (With, of course, the irony that it *wasn't* really his past self who put him in this situation -- he *put* his past self in this situation, when he was created And could've avoided this fate if he'd just been the first clone to not come back for a new clone)

      The overseer in charge of torturing him taunts him with the fact that 1) the Company doesn't expect the cycle will ever end until his money runs out, which won't happen for centuries, and 2) not ONE of the new clones has ever even ASKED about the welfare of their predecessors

      The story ends with this kind of cheesily predictable Wham Ending The fully-trained-up H, transformed into this starved broken shell of a man, is told what his first assignment will be in his new career and we're only told it's "worse than anything he'd imagined"

      And he asks "Can I just know one thing? Where am I? What am I doing? The real me" The Company guy thinks he means the current clone, who ironically is codenamed "I", and tells him he's having huge banquets on a pleasure planet and well on his way to ending up back here

      "No, I *knew* that I don't mean the new one, I mean the *first* one, the *original* The me from before I ever met you people, the one who first signed the contract Where is he? Is he still alive? Please, I need to know, I HAVE to know"

      "I knew what you meant" And the Company's overseer looked him in the eyes, this scarred, broken, twisted old man, this man who from the moment he'd touched down on this planet hated him to the core, hated every cell in his flabby body as no one else possibly could

      Those soft baby blue eyes he'd seen in the mirror shaving every day "He'll be alive for a long time yet"

      So wait, because now I'm way too invested in this story, does this twist imply that the original went through all the same torture, worked until he managed to regain his wealth and break free, only to go back to being the same as before and start the cycle over again?

      No, it's that he was the first one the Company put through years of slave labor and then when he got too old to be useful to them that way they put him in charge of breaking the new clones because no one else can do it as effectively

      And he's loyal to them despite everything they did to him because he hates his alternate selves more After all, everything that happened to him is their fault - technically, in fact, he's the only one who only ever suffered from the deal and never benefited in any way from it

          Just like in The Prestige the real, original Hugh Jackman died the very first time he did the trick and never once got to bask in the applause at the end
