Were there any clues in earlier letters that warned us of what Skander was planning to do?
Answers
Answer:
This question is to be answered on the basis of your own understanding,
Skander never made his intentions clear in his previous letters fearing that it might scare the Pen Pal and he would turn down the proposition. So he made all the pre-arrangements without keeping them in Pen Pal’s knowledge and executed the whole scheme stealthily.
Answer:
Skander had never showed up his intentions. He had pre-planned the things so that Pen Pal may not get the idea of his real intentions.
Explanation:
Skander wanted to explore the Earth by any means. He wanted to exchange his body with the body of Pen Pal. The idea is dangerous and threatful. Anyone can deny on knowing this. Hence, Skander did not reveal his real intentions to Pen Pal and had pre-planned everything without clarifying his intentions as Pen Pal may deny and turn down his proposal.
Hence, he did not left clue in his letters that warned us his plan. Though Pen pal was careful and showed the photographic plate to Doctor, but he did not had any idea about Skander’s real plan.
