But Ive solved that. My cabin door leads to an identical cabin next door. Clo can vanish

through that door in a split second.

The next-door cabin is empty of course. All the cabins are. They wont be filled until the

return trip from Trion. So, I sleep here. Clo sleeps there. Clothes, food, toothbrushes?
