ExcerptHenrik has turned away to go back inside the bedroom and pack a fresh set of clothes, when Kirsten screams.
He spins around and sees Finn come lunging out from Jennie's old room, throwing himself at Kirsten, who backs away into the wall in a vain attempt to get out of reach. But it's too late, and Finn bites down hard on her neck.
Kirsten's scream turns even higher and more piercing.
Oh, Jesus Christ!
Henrik runs down the hallway and grabs Kirsten's flailing arm.

She almost collapses into his arms, and Henrik half drags, half lifts her backwards down the hallway, away from Finn.
