George
Smiley, a poor, short, fat and quiet disposition man, surprisingly married with
a beautiful career woman. Her name is Lady Ann. She was a secretary in the
office where Gorge Smiley work. While George Smiley was only a low officer, but
he is very intelligent. His wife very loved him. She admitted to herself that
if there were an only man in her life, Smiley would be he when she would go to
Cuba for her job. They were falling in love in their office.
Smiley
had a dream at his life. He wanted to study in academic excursims into the
mastery of human behaviour, but it was only a dream. Sometime in the twenties
when he had emerged from his unimpressive school and lumbered blinking into the
murky cloisters of his unimpressive Oxford College, he had dreamed of
Fellowships and a life devoted to the literary obscurities of
seventeenth-century Germany. But his own tutor, whose name is Jebedee, who knew
Smiley better, guided him wisely away from the honours that would undoubtedly
have been his. Jebedee wanted Smiley to be his employee in his circus group.
Then Smiley joined many trainings from his tutor. And not too long he became a
success man because he work in that circus group. The name of the circus group
is Cambridge circus. Joining in Cambridge circus, he could travel in many
countries in this world. He became a rich people.
His problem was began when Jebedee died. His
life became worst. He lost his job because Cambridge circus was dispersed. Then
2 years he didn’t have job, but because of his intelegency he could survive.
His life became worst when he had a problem with police because he was
predicted killed Jebedee, his tutor in Cambridge circus. The police
interrogated him in many times. It made him more worried if he would catch and
arrested. But he could showed that he didn’t kill his tutor. And the police
believed because there wasn’t a proof showed that he killed Jebedee. Then he
came back to England because he couldn’t stand to live in Germany. There were
many problems over there. He wanted to come back to his beloved country and
tried to find a job there.
At
the first time lived in England he couldn’t find a job. And then not too long someone
asked him to join in his bussiness. He said that he would pay Smiley with a lot
of money, but it was a secret job. He had not to tell it to other persons. Then
after thought for a while Smiley wanted to join because he needed money to live.
Actually he didn’t know what should he do. And then he knew that his job was a
spy and then he should kill the target. At the first time he was afraid, but as
long as the time, he enjoyed his job.
Because
long time no see his wife, he had a plan to visit her. Then he went to Cuba to
visit her, he wondered she still faithful with him. But when he went to her
house he knew that she had a fair love with Cypher Clerk from Ottawa. He is his
wife’s friend. All changed when Smiley knew about his wife. He was very sad and
angry to her. And because of it he divorced with her. He went back to England
again and tried to forget her.
In
England he continued his work. He more enjoyed his job as a killer. Maybe he
depressed with his problem with his ex-wife. He killed many persons. He killed
the Communist persons. He had to do it carefully. It was a secret job. He
didn’t want someone knew it, even the police. His life would be worst than
before if someone knew it. He always kills communist person because he dislike
with them and wanted to fight the communist persons. He remembered about the
war in his beloved country, England, when communist colonized. It was very brutal.
He wanted to replay it. He became a bad killer. One of his victim is Fennan. He
was a communist in Germany.
But
Smiley and his friend were spied by the police. They didn’t know that the
police always look for their hiding place. And one day, when Smiley and his
friend, Mendel, went to a bar for killing their target, they had a trouble.
Serious trouble Mendel said. When they wanted to shoot the target, Smiley had
an accident, he was shot by the police. He didn’t know that he had followed by
the police. Then when the time was precise, the police shot him. Mendel shouted
to Smiley to run away, but he couldn’t. Then Mendel helped him and rushed into
the road. And their job as a killer was known by someone else. And then someone
who knew him, called him as call for the dead because where there were Smiley
there were a death.
They tried to get help. But nobody knew. Then
Mendel called an ambulance to carry Smiley to the hospital. He looked at Smiley
and wondered whether he was dead or not. Smiley was unconcious. It made Mandel
more worried. He didn’t think it would happen with them. It was out of their
plan. But he still had a hope that Smiley could be recovered. He always
accompany him. Then after arrived at the hospital, he asked the doctors to do
the best and recovered Smiley. He said that he would pay the payment. And the
doctors said that they would do the best to recover Smiley.
The
police still looked for him. They looked in many places and they had decided to
look for in the hospital. And finally, the police found them in the hospital
and caught them. They were arrested for all their life.
