Imagine you're driving down a dark country road. It's after midnight, you're tired, and your cranky 7-year-old daughter is riding with you. The car starts making a "flub flub" sound, and you know you've just gotten a flat tire. You pull over; there's not another car or house for miles. You get the jack out of the trunk, along with the spare tire, and jack up the car.
You're changing the tire while your young daughter is standing behind you, holding a hubcap upside down for you to drop the wheel nuts into. You're reaching behind you to drop the nuts into the hubcap, but the last nut hits the pavement. Surprised, you turn around-and your little girl is gone.
In a panic, you stand up and scan the area. You see nothing but dark, rolling hills in every direction. You're just about to call out when you hear a muffled cry. You drop everything and run in the direction of the sound. As you reach the top of a rise, you look down and see your little girl being carried away by a humanoid reptilian creature. Suddenly, a spaceship appears in front of it. The creature enters, and the ship shoots straight up at an incredible speed, vanishing into the night.
What do you do?
