On 15 October 2009 a homemade silver saucer drifted across Colorado on live television while the country believed a six-year-old was folded inside it. Helicopters went up, the National Guard was called, flights out of Denver were held — and when it came down in a field, it was empty. The boy was in the attic above the garage, in a cardboard box, where he had been the whole time. Then came the live interview that evening and the sentence that ended it. The story you know, and the one underneath it: the pardon a decade later, and what the boy has spent years saying about a question he was six years old when he answered.
