At 11:52 a figure in a gray coat climbs the back stairs, moving like they've done it a hundred times. Mara steps out. 'Police! Hands!' The figure freezes, then slowly turns. The face under the hood makes her stomach drop. It's her own.
Mara can't shoot her own face. She hesitates, and that hesitation is all the other Mara needs. The double slips past her into the apartment. A muffled cry, then silence. The lights die at 11:59. Mara never even saw what she let happen. The rain starts again at 11:04.
