Reminds me of a 1960's TV show called "The Prisoner"
It has a balloon bouncing on the water chasing a guy named "Number Six". Check it out, it's great!
Rover! This was my thought as well. Little-known factiod: There are subtle hints that Number Six before being captured, was, in fact, John Drake, the same character Patrick McGoohan played in his former series "Secret Agent" (a.k.a. "Danger Man").
That much is sort of obvious from the premise / opening credits -- which has the perfect score (including the thunder, car engine, and footsteps), but there's at least one direct hint that he is the SAME secret agent as in the other series.
Well, the reason he resigned is not obvious, if his stint as a prisoner even took place in reality rather than in his own mind. There are several hints in the series to that affect.
