A Television Drama


One afternoon, Carolee Mitchell was disturbed by an incident in front of her house. There were many police cars and reporters in front of her house. Very calmy she looked through the window to see what was happening. She could not see anything but men in uniforms blocking the road and her neighbours all trying to know what happened. Suddenly; an ambulance came and took away a suspect suffering from wounds. She then heard the radio saying that the policeman was in operating room having a bullet being removed from his right lung. Later that afternoon her husband arrived home all worried and asked if she was alright. She calmy said she was fine and not frightened at all. She later saw the wounded man sitting by the laurel hedge in her garden. She had no idea on what to do, so just left him alone. Later that night her and her husband watched the news. After watching the news she realized how big of a deal it was and how scary it had been. She wondered what would have happened if she told the reporter that she saw the man. She was curious if that would change the dots in the paper. As she watched the news she forgot she was sitting in her safe house and was afraid.

  2. I would feel bad honestly from my point of view i would say the truth. NO matter what you try and hide the truth comes out one day:)

  3. Why do you believe watching the event in the media made it feel more real to Carolee then when she was actually watching the event take place?

  4. I think that according to a famous quote that whatever your eyes see it may not be the truth. I feel that since she watched it with her husband she probably talked about it and it gave her a good sense to reality.
