Slightly dark.
It is always a good idea to check out a hotel a little bit before getting a room. Mary was going to go get her luggage after checking in and would soon be up in her room. She wasn't going to spend much time in her room, she just needed a place for the conference she had been invited to last-minute. She grabbed her luggage, and took the elevator to the seventh floor, a hotel employee also hitching a ride up to the ninth floor.
She never got to her room and within the hour she was being checked out of the hotel by Daniel, who was very pleased with his new body below his neck. Hopefully someone could help her out, but without her purse, wallet, rental car, hotel room, phone, and her head attached to Daniel's former body he doubted that it would be easy for her!
