- The narrator had gone to the travel agency to pay for their family holiday. A group of men walked in and the staff and customers started handing over their possessions and going into a small bathroom at the back. The men, who were carrying guns, gestured to the narrator to go in as well, but they didn't take anything from her. While they were all locked in the bathroom, the robbers started searching the place and the people in the bathroom did their best to keep the baby quiet. Once the robbers had gone, they shouted for help and the police eventually arrived.
- To start with, the narrator was excited at the thought of the holiday. As the events unfolded, she felt terrified.
- Someone heard their cries for help and called the police.
