Blink Summary

In the episode Blink, from Doctor Who Season 3, the main character Sally Sparrow, goes to an abandoned old house, and finds a message for her from The Doctor saying she should duck. The message was dated in 1969. She ducks, and something flies at her head. The person who threw it was a stone statue of an angel. (or so you would think)

She comes back the next day with her friend Lisa, and then the doorbell rings. The person is Lisa’s grandson. Lisa goes missing right then. How!? Her grandson gives Sally a letter which says that Lisa went back in time. What?!

Sally goes to Lisa’s brother, Keith’s video store and finds a TV with a DVD in it running a video where the Doctor is saying supposedly random things. Again, it may sound random only if you don't know whats going on, and we viewers still don't know .

She goes to the police, and a man (Billy Shipton) takes her down to see cars abandoned at the old house from the first scene and… there is the TARDIS! And everywhere Sally goes, there are angel statues. One minute, you see them, if you look away, or blink, even for a second, they move closer to attack you. As they are talking Billy goes missing, and shows up 5 minutes later as an old man, about to die, when the rain stops.

Sally is determined to find out what is happening, and takes Keith with her. He brings a TV, I-Pad, and a notebook and pen. While they watch The Doctor on TV, they figure out that somehow, The Doctor went into the future, got a transcript of what he and Sally are saying, and is using that to talk back to her. He warns them about the statues and says don’t blink. Or you’re DEAD.

Then, an angel, 2, 3 show up. Sally leaves Keith to go explore if there are more, and Keith tries his best to not blink, then runs to the basement. They find the TARDIS, and go inside, but the angels find them, and try to force them to come out. And at that point the TARDIS de-materializes around them and leaves them surrounded by four attacking angels!

They look up and slowly realize what the Doctor has done - Now all the angels are looking at each other and in a deadlock to not blink or look around. The Angels were looking at each other, which turns all of them to stone, because they were being looked at! Because even a stone angel would get killed (or its equivalent for a stone) when another angel looks at them when they aren't looking.

As Sally and Keith realize they are safe, they slowly inch away from the spot and go on about their life.

A year later, the Doctor and Martha Jones (his companion) pass the store with archery equipment; busy running on a different mission. Sally talks a little, then the Doctor leaves. They don't recognize Sally and that's when Sally realizes that she has to publish the transcript and the video "easter eggs" where the Doctor says random things.

That is how the Doctor gets all the stuff to use in his future or in their past.

That episode was very scary to watch. You never knew what was going to happen. And it all makes sense only at the end or second time viewing.

Traits

Go Green!

Do you listen to what Trump says about climate change? Well, if you do, don't. This essay will (I hope) convince you to go green and worry about the fate of our Earth.

Why should we go green? You may ask. Because the fate of the place you live in depends on it. The earth will be around forever. Why should we stress about it? Because it won't be. It'll be gone soon if this continues. 

Climate change is bad for animals. One way this is true is that Google said: "In 2024, the Arctic will have an ice-less summer." Do you know how bad that is? Polar bears and other creatures that live in the Arctic are used to FREEZING cold temperatures. In the heat of no ice, some animals might literally burn or melt!!! This is because those animals have a thick layer of fur covering their outer bodies, and animals like whales and walruses have a layer of fat called blubber to keep them extra warm. Also, some animals use snow as a hiding area, by digging a hole and hiding in it. Without the snow, there would be nowhere to hide. Actually, without the snow, there might not even BE an Arctic! 

  Another way that climate change is bad for animals is that it's destroying their habitats. This is happening for two reasons. One is because the Amazon Rainforest is burning up. The Amazon Rainforest is great for many reasons. One is it gives off a lot of oxygen because there are so many trees. Two is because it's a great ecosystem for animals to live. There are many different types of animals that live in the Amazon Rainforest and River. if it burns up, there is no place for the animals of the area to go! The people of Brazil want to do something but their leader won't let them. The G7 tried to give Brazil 2 million dollars to help, but the leader said no. "Why are they trying to give Brazil money? I know how to govern my own country!" If the entire Amazon Rainforest burns up, That would be absolutely HORRIBLE!!
But climate change doesn't just affect animals, it affects humans as well. One way this is true is because one aspect of climate change is global warming. It gets hotter in some places and cooler in others. Pollution is one way that global warming happens. But this pollution is REALLY bad for everyone. For the living organisms that breathe oxygen, the air is getting polluted. Actually, making 1 or half a pound of beef is equivalent to driving 55 cars for one mile!!! So humans need to become vegetarians. And all this gunk isn't just happening in the air. It's going into the sea! There is a floating island of trash the size of Texas! And it's still growing! Whenever your trash goes into landfills, most of it goes into the sea. So humans need to start RECYCLING a lot more. Even if just one person does these things, it can make a huge difference.
