Bathroom break
Carolyn got up and left for the bathroom, leaving Jeremy alone in the room with her dog. He told her that if she does anything funny, the dog might be getting hurt. The very thought of her beloved dog getting beaten badly made Carolyn even more terrified about taking this risk.
As she left the room, she managed to swipe a pen from the office counter and entered the bathroom. Once she was inside the bathroom, she looked around for something to write on. She needed to pass this note on to someone else, who would believe her and call the police.
