"He had a sudden mental picture mental picture of his apartment on just the other side of this wall--- warm, cheerful, incredibly spacious. And then saw himself striding trough it, lying down on the floor on his back, arms spread wide, reveling in its unbelievable security.

He could see her rush across the room, face astounded and frightened, and hear himself shouting instructions: "Never mind how I got here! Just open the wind-" She couldn't open it, he remembered"
