Barney And Betty Hill example essay topic
That is where no one would find him. Due to Betty's "strange behavior", her boss awarded her with another week off to relax. She planned a trip alone to Arizona. After her day shift was over, she walks over to her car and grabs the handle. Only the door is stuck. Betty tugs and tugs, but the door still wont budge.
She takes a deep breath and tries for the door again. With a mighty thrust, she tugs. The door opens and Betty falls to the ground. Everything in her purse falls out. Her red lipstick rolls underneath the car. As she reaches to grab it...
SLAM! The car door shuts again. Puzzled, she opens the door and looks, but no one is in her car. She puts her key in and cranks the engine...
"DAMN IT!" cursed Betty. The car wont start. She looks at the gas hand to see if the tank was empty. The tank was full. She picks up her cell phone and tried to call her husband, only to be accompanied by static". Hello?" Silence.
She then begins to hear something really weird. Whispering. "Hello? Who is this? Can anybody hear me? Barney?
Barney, can you hear me?" , questioned Betty. Before she could even hang up the phone, a bright light surrounding the car making it very difficult to see. She then decides to get out of the car and investigate. She reaches for the handle, but cant open the door for it seems to be stuck. Betty tries to scream, but nothing manages to come out. The light becomes so bright, that she passes out.
When she comes to (10 minutes later), she tries the engine again. "Hotdog, it works!" Betty rejoices. Barney, feeling "light as a feather", she attempts to drive home. He pulls up in his driveway, hitting the garage door.
He walks in and finds his wife sitting in their newly furnished Queen Anne Victorian designed living room in the dark. Stumbling further into the house, he accidentally knocks over the vase startling Betty". Barney! What in God's name are you doing?" shouted Betty". Betty, did they get you?"Who?"Them."Them who Barney?" Barney then loses his high, "Never mind. How was work?" Betty contemplates on whether or not she should tell her husband, "The usual.
Good thing I'm leaving for Arizona tomorrow" "Wow! That's kind of close to the Grand Canyon. I heard it's a good tourist stop. You know, I've had a pretty hectic schedule. This would be the perfect opportunity for us to relax together. And MAYBE stop by the Grand Canyon on the was back.
What do you say?" protested Barney". Good idea. Well, it's going to be a long drive. Let's go pack and then get some shut-eye. "After Barney packs, he then grabs the phone to call his job to tell them he was taking a week off. Just as he picks up to dial, he hears no dial tone.
He hangs up and tries to dial again. No dial tone. As he listens closer, he begins to hear whispering". Man, I must be going crazy" Barney confessed. He listens a little bit closer and the voice tells him that he must go the Grand Canyon. He hangs up and goes upstairs and finds Betty fast asleep.
On The Road Nodding off, Barney almost runs all the other travelers off the road. He looks up and sees the little martian he saw the day before. He looked over to find Betty fast asleep. The martian tells him that his wife is also one the F.B.I. Agents and is planning to kill him. His objective is to kill her first. Confused, he glances over at Betty and sees her smiling in her sleep".
She must be dreaming about how she's going to kill me... No, she loves me. She wouldn't do that to me". All of a sudden, a bright white light flashed 3 times, aborting all of Barney's thoughts about Betty". Okay, if she wants to play. Let's play".
Barney thinks to himself. He passes the Arizona exit and head straight for the Grand Canyon. Betty wakes up and notices that she's not in Arizona". Are we at the Grand Canyon?"Yes". They stay at the "Hollow Inn" for 4 days. While they were there, strange things were happening: Mirror breaking Flying chairs Running water with no physical contact Strange voices Tossing and turning, Barney decides to take a walk at 3 a.m".
I need a smoke". Just then, the martian pops up and hands Barney what looks like a regular cigar (but it is really martian dust). He took one puff of the already lit cigar, he couldn't keep his balance and fell to the ground". Get rid of her", the martian says repeatedly.
The following morning, Barney wakes up next to his wife. She decides she wants to go to the Grand Canyon before they return home for some extra pictures". Good idea", mischievously smiling. The Grand Canyon Arriving at the Grand Canyon, they notice that they are alone. Getting out the car, Betty trips on her shoelace and fall to the ground, sending her wig flying. Barney covers his face to hide his laughter, but it didn't work.
Betty's wig gets hooked on to the edge of the Canyon ledge". Let's go get your hair Betty",'s niggling. They walked over to the ledge and Betty bend down slowly to pick up her wig". Now's the time!" , screeched the martian". I cant do it", whispered Barney". Well if you don't, I will!
She's the enemy!" The martian then takes over Barney's body and pushes Betty and her wig off the edge. Barney gets back in the car and head's back to his New Hampshire home. He gets to his house and finds his front door wide open. What does he find? A GAY MARTIAN PARTY! The martians all get together and turn Barney into a small martian and they all got back into their spaceship and went to Uranus.
The Hills were never heard of again. The F.B.I. Went to the Grand canyon to look for Betty Hills' body, but when they got there, the body was gone. The house the Hills' were living in was sold and the Hills' case remained unsolved... THE END.
