Lesson 6 Harrison Bergeron
Then, suddenly, a door was pulled from its frame and thrown to the dance stage.
George Bergeron looked closely at the boy who emerged from beyond the door, carrying his heavy metal and wearing his ridiculous clown’s nose.
“My God! That’s our Harrison!”
“BUZZ! BUZZ!”
The cameras focused on Harrison.
He stood there—a giant amongst men at the center of the stage.
Ballerinas, engineers, and announcers trembled before him, expecting to die.
“I am the Emperor!” cried Harrison.
“Do you hear? I am the Emperor!
Everybody must do what I say at once!
Even though I stand here handicapped and weakened, I am greater than any man who ever lived!
Now watch me become even greater!”
Harrison tore off his chains with ease and dropped them on the floor.
He then smashed his earphones against the wall, threw away his clown's nose, and revealed a face that would have amazed Thor, the god of thunder.
“Now,” he said. “Who will be my Empress?”
The people knelt before him.
“Let the first woman rise to join me as my partner.”
A ballerina slowly rose, swaying on her feet like a gentle rose in the breeze.
“Why should you be made to carry these handicaps?
Why should anyone?” Harrison asked.
He pulled the buzzer from her ear, snapped off her heavy bags, and removed her mask.
She was blindingly beautiful.
“Now,” said Harrison, taking her hand.
“Shall we show the people the meaning of the word ‘dance’?
Music!” he commanded.
