.Ingrid protests, yet at some point relentsu00e2 $” she comprehends her task to her pal, but sheu00e2 $ s also familiar with the risks, which include possible illegal charges if the cops familiarize her prior knowledge of Marthau00e2 $ s purposes. They travel up, but at that point immediately need to go back to Nyc when Martha misplaces the pillu00e2 $” in a heart-pumping sequence they turn her home upside-down searching for it. (To buy yet another illegally, she mentions, would certainly be actually much also tough.) When Ingrid finds it, in an envelope scrabbled with words u00e2 $ Bye-bye, u00e2 $ you wonder if sheu00e2 $ ll hand it overu00e2 $” yet she does.Over the following few times, back in their new estate, the pair mapped out their ground rules: Martha asserts that Ingrid must try to appreciate herself (though certainly not discuss their expertise, lest the cops discover itu00e2 $” though, typically, she does), and wait until sheu00e2 $ s ready.
Then, Ingrid will definitely find Marthau00e2 $ s cherry-red bedroom door finalized, and thatu00e2 $ ll be the verification that sheu00e2 $ s gone.Thereu00e2 $ s a sort of Hitchcockian apprehension in this part of the account, particularly the gos of Ingrid climbing the stairs to examine the position of the door once more and also againu00e2 $” however also an invited dosage of pessimistic humor. Martha refers intending to make love along with a mutual friend, Damien (Severanceu00e2 $ s John Turturro), againu00e2 $” a shared aficionado from their past, with whom Ingrid is still in contact. Ingrid additionally goes to the health and fitness center, and also faints to discover herself breathless as well as haggard, quickly worried concerning her personal mortality, also.
In one of my beloved series, Ingrid sees the door is actually closed and immediately vomits and also cries, yet after that a light as well as ghostly Martha, dressed in white, comes downstairs, stating sheu00e2 $ d opened up a window and also the wind had goofed shut. Ingrid is actually furious.Photo: u00c2 u00a9 El Deseo, photograph by Iglesias Mu00c3 u00a1 s.
