A girl was sitting on the subway late one night, when she noticed that the women sitting across from her was staring intently at her. The women was sitting between two old men. The girl kept looking away, but the women wouldn't break eye contact with her. The stare was beginning to freak her out.
At the next stop, a new passenger got on. It was a tall man in a grey trenchcoat. He sat down next to the girl.
The women paid no attention to the man in the trenchcoat. She just kept staring at the girl, who was getting more and more freaked out. The two men didn't even glance in her direction. She pretended not to notice, but each time she glanced at the women the stare continued.
When the train was pulling into the next stop, the man in the trenchcoat got up to leave. Suddenly, he grabbed the girl's arm tightly and as the doors opened, dragged her off the train.
The subway doors shut and the train pulled off, leaving the girl alone on the platform with the man in the trenchcoat. She started screaming for help.
"Calm down," said the man. "I just saved your life. I didn't mean to scare you, but I had to get you off that train. The women sitting opposite you was dead and the two men beside her were propping her up."
