Sixty-five years ago tonight — September 19,1961 — a couple driving home through New Hampshire’s White Mountains noticed alight following their car. Two hours later they were home, with no memory ofthe miles in between. What happened next became the first widely reported alienabduction in history: the torn dress, the strange circles on the car that madea compass spin, the hypnosis sessions, and the star map Betty drew that seemedto match a real star system. Tonight on Conspiracy Court, the case goes ontrial — with a twist. IAN prosecutes for ABDUCTION: the missing time, thematching testimony, the Zeta Reticuli map. TOM defends FALSE MEMORY: the dreamsthat started it, the hypnosis that built it, and the TV episode that may havesupplied the aliens. Mr. AI and Miss AI render their rulings, and InformerNation is the jury: ABDUCTED or FALSE MEMORY?
