The Tenant

After Blake finishes throwing up, he feels nauseous but is fairly confident the poison never got into his system. He starts to call the police, convinced that Krista will try to kill Whitney, then stops. He realizes that no one will ever believe his story, especially with how he will be tied to Mr. Zimmerly’s death. Instead, Blake calls Krista, leaving her a voice message apologizing and asking to see her. Then, he drives back to the city, hoping to get there before Whitney gets home from work.

Amanda comes home from work. Krista asks her about apartments and sits with her to look at them while she waits for Blake to get back. She notices that the coffee table is cluttered with magazines and mail. Underneath one pile is a knife.

As Blake drives, he realizes that some of the poison must have gotten into his system. He becomes more and more nauseous, his head hurts, and his vision starts to blur. He again considers calling 911, then decides that he has to try to talk to Krista. When he gets to the brownstone, however, he can’t get his key into the lock, so he rings the doorbell.
