[edit] Synopsis

A woman buys a gold thimble from a department store, on the 9th floor. As she rides the elevator downward, she sees it is scratched and takes it to Complaints for a replacement, but when she tries to convince the manager that she bought it on the 9th floor, she is told that the 9th floor doesn't exist. Eventually she is trapped in the department store, gets to the 9th floor and learns that she is one of the mannequins stored there; each one gets to live and go out into the world for a month. Since she had been away too long, she had forgotten her true nature. The next day, the store manager does a double take upon seeing a very familiar looking mannequin on display.
