The thief breaks the window with a flash light and thus makes the set visible. In the same moment a woman, who lives there, is returning home. She turns on the main light on the ceiling in the room and the thief hides himself in the closet in order not keep his eye on her. She turns off the light and turns on the light at her vanity. She goes to bed, opens a book in the bedside light. She turns off this lamp and tries to fall asleep. Thief gets out of the closet with sharp and big stainless (= Anticorro) knife in his hands. We see a reflection of light on the blade of the knife. His dark shadow slowly approaches the bedside of the woman. The story continues as student decides to the quick end.
