At first, Betty and Barney felt comfortable in the alien space station. They were not afraid because the
aliens were very friendly. They stood around and looked at them. Some of them pointed at Betty and Barney
and spoke to each other in a language they didn't know.
After about thirty minutes, the aliens began to feel them and to check them. They were very interested in
Betty's and Barney's bodies. Then, some of the aliens cut pieces of hair from Betty's and Barney's heads and
took small pieces of skin from their bodies. They were like scientists. Why were they doing this?

pain," she said later.
Barney had false teeth which he could take out of his mouth. When the aliens discovered the teeth, they
