Cadence is busy in her kitchen washing glasses when she hears an unusual sound somewhere in the house. She goes to investigate. Looking around in confusion, she is oblivious to the masked man approaching from behind. He grabs her and presses a chloroform-soaked cloth over her nose and mouth, holding it there until she can no longer resist inhaling and passes out. When she wakes up, she finds herself tied to a chair with the intruder about to gag her. She tries to protest but only has a few seconds before she is silenced. She is left alone in her bonds while the intruder explores the house, looking for whatever takes his fancy. Cadence tries to get free, longing to get to a phone and raise the alarm, but the ropes are too tight and she can't escape. Eventually, the intruder returns and tells her, in a quiet, sinister voice, that he is going to make a few changes before he leaves. First and foremost, he wants to see her wearing a lot less clothes before re-tying her and leaving her to fend for herself.

Now Cadence is naked and tied up on the floor. The intruder pushes a cloth into her mouth before gagging her again, then seemingly departs. Once again, Cadence struggles to free herself but to no avail. Finally, she decides to see help. She makes her way to the back door and tries to open it with her feet, but it's locked. She decides to head for the front door where she is more likely to be spotted by a passerby anyway. She slides through the kitchen and into the hallway. Almost at the door, she stands up to hop the last few steps, intending to opening the door with her bound hands. To her horror, the door opens before she can reach it, and once again she is confronted by the intruder.
