She is just woken up by this feeling of someone there watching her in her room. But when she wakes up, the person runs.
00:00:08
I don't get why she didn't want to call the police because I don't think she actually believed that she was in
00:00:13
danger. So her door had been locked. So for this person to get in, they had to have had a key. And because they didn't
00:00:20
actually do anything, she kind of figured that it was someone who was maybe connected to her subletter.
00:00:25
someone who had a key and then when they saw that she was someone else, they realized their mistake and just like
00:00:30
booked it. So, she's like chalking this whole thing up to like a misunderstanding. But here's a weird
00:00:35
little fact I cannot let go of. This person didn't do anything. Didn't take anything.
00:00:41
>> Not much to take. >> But they did leave something behind. A jar of pickles like sitting right there
00:00:49
on the kitchen counter.
