Later, he came to the conclusion that Wonka and friends were aliens, too. At first, he assumed they were from an enemy country, or perhaps they worked for Hilton hotels. He was thoroughly confused by the big, see-through rectangle with eight people on board, some of them in their nightshirts. The Knids wound up burning up in Earth's atmosphere, becoming little fireballs, like shooting stars.ĭuring this adventure, the president of the United States watched on cameras from the spaceship.

This was a huge building floating through space, with all the amenities of a ritzy hotel.
It took them into space where they encountered a spaceship hotel. However, one of the old ones distracted him, and he did not pull the elevator back in time. Wonka's plan had been to go so high that he could crash land back into the factory in another spot. Rather, it floated through some unseen means. It was not attached to any rails or pulleys. It took off through the roof of the factory. The elevator was full of buttons that could make it do fantastic things. They even pushed the bed onto the elevator so that the three other grandparents, collectively known as the Old Ones, did not have to leave the bed. Still, they all fit into the huge, clear elevator. Also along for the ride were his three other grandparents, who never got out of bed. He was a kind and loving man, who acted younger than his years. This included Charlie's Grandpa Joe, who was always more than willing to share in Charlie's adventures. All of his family came out to the factory and gathered into the Great Glass Elevator to become a part of Charlie's new life. The action begins just after Willy Wonka, owner of the famous Chocolate Factory, had announced that Charlie, a polite, unassuming boy, would inherit the factory upon Wonka's impending retirement.
