I didn't want what happened to me.

I didn't ask for this.

Wait a minute. Give the guy chance.

So come on, Whitley...

Which group abducted you?

-Did you see a ship?

-Ship?

This happened in the house,

in the country.

Oh, do you have circle or a triangle scar

anywhere in your body?

No.

Because a lot of us them have.

You know, I want to get back to this participant thing...

I didn't want what they did to me.

I didn't want a rectal probe ........

It's not funny.

That's why I say victim.

Nobody wants it, nobody asked for it.

We have to make this experience work for us.

I don't want we'll live the rest

of our lives in fear.

So we get together.

-And we talk about it.

-And laugh.

Sometimes.

Well, we all are space cadets, see.

So what a hack.

We have to make the best of it.

You know.

This isn't a joke.

These beings are real.

Even if we don't know what that means.

It may sound like a cliche, but...

these visitors do coming gigantic ships,

and they contact a lot of people.

A, not of course, we say it's a thunderstorms

or a bad dreams, hallucinations, meteors, whatever,

but...

the joke's on us.

We are the ones who are hiding.

They came to me one night in 1959.

I was lying in bed, reading the book,

when suddenly a group of little men

in blue uniforms walked in the room.

Short, three-four feet tall.

Very round, their faces were...

Well, I was terrify.

One of them put his hand on my wrist...

-And it was...

-...clammy.

...Like the skin of a frog.

And one of them said: don't worry,

it's not you we're interested in.

We are interested in...

the girl child you carry.

Did they let you keep her?

My daugter is a wonderful woman.

And now her daughter is involved to.

How old is she?

My granddoughter is six.

Passed it on.

The only thing to do

is to face it.

Because otherwise it's just gonna

tear you like the peaces.

Believe me, I know.

At least you two have each other.

My husband did not have the experience,

and he tried to have me committed.

Now at least he doesn't have me

to worry about anymore.

I wasn't as lucky as Laurie.

She still has her daughter and the granddaughter.

I was 3 months pregnant.

And my husband and I saw this huge light outside.

We just went to sleep.

That next morning I woke up

and i wasn't pregnant anymore.

Whitley...

Won't you tell us little more

about what happened to you.

God, honey I'd like to go home.

So, it's my wife and I, you know, we have a family too,

and we have ought to thing about this.

Thank you.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome.

-Very much.

-Come back.

I wish you to stay.

I tried hypnosis, I tried this I tried that,

I tried this I tried that...

No, it's not working.

I have to do something for myself.

You expect this, you expect anwers so quickly.

We don't even know all the questions yet.

Allright, of course. But...

if... if... if I was in my right mind,

I wouldn't know that too.

There is nothing matter with your mind,

be patient.

Take care.

Look at me.

Am I not gorgeous?

What the hell...

You don't like your toys from your

First Communnion.

Don't wait up for me, baby.

What are you doing?

I shall return.

Where you're going?

Going for pack of cigarettes.

You don't smoke.

I must be awake.

Is that what you mean?

I must be awake.

I'm gonna do a trick.

Look at this.

Empty, right?

Show him.

I should cast a spell.

This has to cook them.

Want to say a few things.

First I'd like to say seasons greetings,

then I'd like to say, keep your hands

on the table, at all the times.

Boo!

I want to go home. Please, let me go.

Are you old?

You've broken my mind.

I'll kill you.

Can we talk this over?

I can't wake up!

I am the dreamer. You are the dream.

Look.

The only thing that really matters here

is one I'm about to show you.

That's not it.

I didn't come all this way...

for you to tell me

that that's what it is.

Is there something on ......?

Because I don't believe that one.

It's like a...

box. A Chinese box.

You open it, and there is another one inside,

and there is another one inside...

You know, I can let me

see you who are you.

It is a Chinese box.

And you're not...

you're not to be alive to see.

OK? So, just get that clear.

You're not going to let to see you.

That's a good idea.

One... two, three, shoot!

Anybody home?

Dad! Dad!

What are you doing up?

Why aren't you in school?

Mom and me to............ wait for you.

We are playing war.

I'm beating a pence afford.

That for sure.

-I saw them.

-You did?

Something happened.

-How are you?

-Good.

Dad, come here, I wanna

show you something....

What happened?

They danced.

What kind of dance?

The bossa-nova, how do I know?

They let me know that I...

was...

chosen...

to something.

And...

they invited me to come with them.

I had the feeling, forever.

Then was morning.

-They asked you to go with them?

-Yeah.

I just came home to get my stuff.

You had that mark that invite in your head.

Thank you for that one.

...w tym okresie to za mao dziwne,

by traktowa to serio.

For the facts:

if we're talking about what they know about us,

you'd have to... you would have to consider

that they... they could be sitting at home tonight...

and watching "The Honeymooners".

Like Ralph and Alice... like us.

That's why they picked on me.

You know, what I think?

I don't think it matters.

Whatever it is,

they know, was pay way of television...

and bulls like that...

If... if we're talking about light years..

tonight they're watching the first episode

"The Father Knows Best"

It'll be narcissistic of us to feel alone in the universe.

People used to think that the world

was flat, you know, the center of things.

That excludes the possibility of visitors.

That's really another kind of...

of the same kind thinking.

The world is getting so small, that

it would be nice to meet someone new.

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know...

I don't know what you saw.

What is it matter?

It doesn't matter.

It's just God.

Who saw something extraordinary?

There are many faces of God.

Masks of God.

Our history is a response to their presence.

They might be what the face of evolution

looks like on the response to...

a conscious mind.

You know something?

You frighten me.

Because you went so far away...

but at your back...

you're different.

I think they gave you something.

I do. I think they gave you a gift.

You'd better use it.

You're sleeping?

Like this:

I gotta know, I gotta know what is...

Look at this, Anne , wake up, wake up.

I got this great.

It's the first chapter, look, look, awake.

OK, OK...

I got this great first chapter.

I got such a night, yeah. About of the start.

Andy... Andy wake up.

Come on, come on.

Wake up.

I show you something.

Whitley...

What's going on?

-What are we doing?

-It was a huge light.

What are we doing?

Mom, what are we doing?

Nothing.

Let's go back to bed.

You think it could have been a plane?

Helicopter?
