Question #3:

Both "The Elevator" and the short film have similar plots because in the first paragraph of "The Elevator", Sleator identifies an old-building (probably a high-rise) with a small elevator described as ominous and in the short film the lady is in the apartment building heading to a small elevator where most of the major events take place and a lot is revealed about the characters primarily the antagonists and protagonists like in the short film. Eventually in the "Elevator", the fat lady is introduced when she gets on the elevator on the fourteenth floor. She wears a green coat and dirty sneakers . She is so large she fills the elevator by herself. She stares directly at martin. In the short film, towards the end of the film, a person which looks to be a man with a white covering on his head is seen to be starting at the lady in the elevator only seperated by the elevator door. A way these moments in the "Elevator" and the short film is because both the girl and Martin have similar encounters with the believed antagonists. Due to the fat lady's weird behavior, Martin develops a fear of her. He frantically tries to figure out who she is and why she is in the building, which is similar to one of the final scenes in the short film when the lady encounters the person with the white convering over their face, both Martin and the girl are trying to figure out who these people are and what their intentions are with them because both the mysterious person/figure and the fat lady are acting strangely during the encounters with the protagonists. In their next encounter with each other, the fat lady gets on third floor and goes up to the eighteenth. Martin can't figure out why. He worries what might happen if the elevator got stuck. He wants to get off but thinks he can't get past her, which is similar to the scene where the lady frantically tries pressing the button to get the elevator doors to shut so she can escape the mysterious figure but can't do it because the elevator isn't functioning when she does it. Finally for their last encounter in the story also known as "The Elevator", the fat lady meets him next time on his floor, so Martin decided to take the stairs where he ends up falling and fracturing his leg forcing him to have to take the elevator, this is similar to a scene in the short film where due to the elevator doors not closing when the girl tries to press the button to get the doors to close, the girl must face the mysterious figure and is forced to deal with the situation, it's like facing danger directly. The climax in the story "The Elevator" is when Martin and his father get home and Martin rides the elevator with his father until his father gets off at the ninth floor, then the fat lady gets on at the tenth floor, she then calls him by name and presses the STOP button, in the short film, the lady ends up facing the mysterious figure which is where the film ends and what happens next was left a mystery and for the viewer to guess.
