The video opened onto a room that was his apartment. The camera — impossibly — floated above his couch, showed the exact coffee stain, the dent in the cushion where he always sat. He watched himself on screen: hunched, mug in hand, watching a file that watched him. Then the baby appeared on the couch between his knees.
