Late at night a woman confronts a stranger in her home: he claims to be neighbor Frank. He tells her her husband is a vegetable and, on her wedding night, offers to keep her company. She orders him out and threatens to scream; he refuses, moves closer and becomes aggressive. After she hits him, he insults her and vows he'll deal with her. Cornered, she threatens to kill herself, saying, If I die, let's see how you'll explain it! His stunned reply is cut off, leaving a dangerous, unresolved standoff.
