beamed up
Sent via teleportation
Beamed up refers to being transported by a teleportation beam, from the *Star Trek* command "Beam me up, Scotty." The phrase extends to any sudden disappearance or departure: One minute he was here, then he just beamed up.
In slang, beamed up can mean high on drugs, especially crack cocaine, suggesting someone has left reality behind.
