Arthur and Fenchurch start a romantic relationship. Arthur acquires her phone number, but he ends up losing it (having been written on a winning raffle ticket) and sinks into depression.ĭetermined to take his mind off Fenchurch, he buys a computer to try to locate the place his cave in prehistoric Earth is currently, and by a stroke of luck the location turns out to be Fenchurch's house. He learns that she, too, suspects that the Vogons were not a hallucination. Arthur then runs into Fenchurch again, and, desperate to spend more time with her, drive her to the local train station. He makes up a story about going on vacation to southern California as an alibi for his three-month-long disappearance. Arthur finally makes it back to his house, finding a mysterious Fish Bowl in it. Arthur also learns that it is thought that Fenchurch is mentally unstable, having seemingly gone mad at a cafe in Rickmansworth at the exact moment when the Vogons were about to destroy the Earth.

Only three months had passed since the incident. As he learns from Russell, the entire world believes that the Vogon fleet was actually a hallucination, brought on by drugs released into the air as part of an experiment by the C.I.A. After hitching a ride with a man named Russell, he finds Russell's sister, Fenchurch, or "Fenny," unconscious in the back seat, and immediately falls in love with her. Arthur, who has apparently hitched a ride all the way to the spot where the Earth once was, is shocked to find the planet perfectly intact.
