Sunbeams from cucumbers

Hmmmm - things looking deeply suspicious!!

A couple of guys almost certainly masquerading under pseudonyms, names of Gilbert and Sullivan may hold the clue to the whereabouts of McGuffin....

They wrote about a Princess who lived in a castle/school open only to women and barricaded from men. Here, one of her aims (Princess Ida Act 2 ) was to "get sunbeams from cucumbers".

Now - as she was obviously not real, was she, in fact, an elaborate cover for you know who?
