The narrator is startled by a vision in his mirror. He sees a man with a scar on the left side of his face strangling a beautiful blonde woman. He later meets Sylvia, and realizes she is the woman of this terrible vision, and notes her fiancé has a scar exactly where he saw it. He tells her of his premonition, and the engagement is soon broken off. Is that all there is to the story or is there more?
