"Don't you go near him," Martin screams after her, but he's aware of the smoke now, of the heat, and-

"Oh, my God, did you-"

And then he realizes that smoke is rolling out from under the door, his door, and his eyes widen in terror. He fumbles for his phone, dialing emergency services, before he stumbles for the closest fire alarm. It's too much to try to save his own things, he knows, but hopefully everyone can get it. If someone in the building was killed because of her-

Ultimately, the firemen don't believe him when he says that the burn on his hand is from the doorknob, but the ambulance bandages him up anyway. They manage to stop the blaze before the entire building catches, but his laptop and most of his possessions are gone- and Martin will smell vaguely like smoke when he finally, fumbling, pushes the door to Jon's flat open.

"Well, um... I didn't get any of my stuff."
