Insights from Abduction

“If you don't like it here, you can leave. But you'll die if you do.”

Living in a giant bubble under the ocean sounds peaceful until you realize it is just a cage. The Interterrans gave up their freedom for a longer life.

I can't stop thinking about the genetic engineering in this world. They literally grow their own servants to be perfectly obedient. It makes our own medical ethics look like child's play.

“To them, we are nothing more than biological curiosities.”

Suzanne keeps trying to find logic in their high tech society. She realizes that even the most advanced people can be cold and dismissive of others.
