"No, it is an agony box. This is the gom jabbar - "I hold at your neck the gom jabbar," she said. "The gom jabbar, the high-handed enemy. It's a needle with a drop of poison on its tip. Ah-ah! Don't pull away or you'll feel that poison.""

"my understanding is the agony box is the gom jobbar... theresa poison in it's tip... dont pull away your hand or you'll feel the poison --- hence they are one and the same are they?"
