## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

A motel room, summer rain on the neon sign outside.
He wakes to sheets damp with sweat and the wrong wedding ring.
By morning the hall mirror shows a stranger in his slippers and a wife who tastes like cotton swabs soaked in chloral hydrate.
A stunt kite tangled on the neighbor’s fence flips once in the wind.

The car’s crumpled nose tells the story before the GPS logs it.
The house smells of lemon cleaner and locked cabinets.
Her smile comes in halves, the left side twitching behind a prescription bottle.
He photographs every doorknob to prove it’s the one he chose.

A Polanski filter over early-2000s TV nightmares—cheap rugs and real fear.

**Mood tags**: dread, neon-soaked, paranoid
