Zoom

During a high-pressure late-night corporate Zoom call, Sarah, a junior exec, is presenting quarterly figures from her apartment. Midway through her pitch, she notices a masked intruder creeping behind her in the reflection of a glass cabinet.

Terrified but unable to leave the call without arousing suspicion, Sarah tries to keep her voice steady while subtly dialing 999 under the desk — but the intruder sees her and snatches the phone silently out of her hand.

He forces her, at knifepoint just out of frame, to continue the presentation while rummaging through her apartment, looking for something. The other participants notice she seems distracted but assume it’s nerves.

As the meeting reaches its end, the intruder demands she turn off her camera. Sarah refuses, hoping someone will realize something’s wrong. Instead, he explodes in sudden violence — dragging her out of view while the Zoom call continues, her mic catching muffled screams and breaking glass.

The last thing her colleagues see is her laptop sliding off the desk, the screen going black.
