.Ingrid objections, but eventually relentsu00e2 $" she knows her obligation to her pal, however sheu00e2 $ s also knowledgeable about the risks, which include possible unlawful charges if the cops hear of her anticipation of Marthau00e2 $ s motives. They take a trip up, but after that promptly need to return to Nyc when Martha displaces the pillu00e2 $" in a heart-pumping sequence they transform her apartment or condo upside down looking for it. (To purchase yet another illegitimately, she points out, would certainly be far too challenging.) When Ingrid situates it, in a pouch scrawled with words u00e2 $ Adieu, u00e2 $ you question if sheu00e2 $ ll hand it overu00e2 $" but she does.Over the upcoming handful of days, back in their brand new country home, the pair mapped out their ground rules: Martha asserts that Ingrid should attempt to enjoy herself (though certainly not discuss their experience, lest the cops locate itu00e2 $" though, normally, she performs), and also wait up until sheu00e2 $ s prepared. After that, Ingrid is going to find Marthau00e2 $ s cherry-red room door shut, and thatu00e2 $ ll be actually the confirmation that sheu00e2 $ s gone.Thereu00e2 $ s a kind of Hitchcockian fear in this particular portion of the story, particularly the chances of Ingrid going up the stairways to check out the role of the door again and also againu00e2 $" but additionally an invited dosage of melancholy humor. Martha refers wishing to make love with a friend of a friend, Damien (Severanceu00e2 $ s John Turturro), againu00e2 $" a common lover coming from their past times, along with whom Ingrid is still in touch. Ingrid also heads to the health club, and is overcome to discover herself breathless as well as haggard, suddenly concerned regarding her personal death, too. In one of my favored sequences, Ingrid observes the door is finalized as well as without delay pukes and also sobs, yet at that point a light and also macabre Martha, dressed in white colored, happens downstairs, claiming sheu00e2 $ d opened a home window and also the doddle had goofed shut. Ingrid is actually furious.Photo: u00c2 u00a9 El Deseo, image by Iglesias Mu00c3 u00a1 s.
