The Price of Honey

Honey was the fourth wife of a Barney, a super-rich tech guy. We find her taking an Uber to her husband's funeral. All three prior wives were to attend the funeral as well. An assistant of Barney had created a seating chart for the funeral. However, Honey proposed that all wives sit together.

Spoiler alert ahead. One of Barney's wives notices a very handsome man talking at length with the assistant. They worried it might be some illegitimate child. But he was too old for that. Later this man accused Honey of not crying during the funeral.

The stranger claims that he is Barney. He has intimate details of his and Honey's life. Including some mistakes that Barney had made in the past. Apparently, Barney figured out how to download his consciousness into the body of a younger man. Unfortunately, due diligence was not done on the victim whose body he took over.

The police came and arrested Barney, in his new body, for murder. Barney pleaded with Honey to tell the cops who he was. She said she did not know the man. The cops left with Barney in tow. Not sure if Honey was just trying to get her inheritance. Or maybe she was mad that Barney was cheating on her with multiple women.

The Spider Silk Scarf

Nora grew up poor. She ended up living with Ben. She is a thief. She steals items she likes. She stores them in her closet. Nora wonders whether Ben notices the nice things that a poor girl has.

Ben does a job. He works in the kitchen of a mansion. This is the house of Ms. Martin. There are rumors that Ms. Martin is a witch. And that she walks on all fours and eats pets.

Ben says that there was a duct in the kitchen through which he heard voices. Apparently, Ms. Martin was talking about an ultra-rare and very valuable scarf that she intended to loan to a museum.

Nora caught wind of this. She wanted the scarf. She finds a hidden coal chute behind the mansion. She crawls in and worms herself into the house. She climbs an elaborate staircase, and words he way down the hall until she is over the kitchen.

Inside Ms. Martin's room, it seems very narrow and deep. She turns off her light and goes into the room. She loses her bearings. Then she feels like she is in a forest. And a large beast is approaching. The beast is Ms. Martin. Nora begs for her life and promises not to steal anything.

Nora passes out. She later wakes to toxic fumes. She somehow gets outside the room and to a window, where she breathes air to avoid the fumes. She dials 911, goes back in the room, and pulls Ms. Martin out. The old woman spends 27 days in the hospital before waking up.

Eventually, Nora finds a strange cardboard box and her front door. Inside in the spider silk scarf she wanted to steal. Nora does not want it. Nora also finds out that Ben knew about her thievery all along.
