She Wins
A girl wakes up and finds herself at a deserted bus stop in the middle of the night. She starts walking home, realizing that she's being followed by someone. Each time she tries to run away from him, the night resets and she relives the same moment over and over again, with him moving closer to her. After multiple time resets, she finally finds a way of overcoming her fear and wins in a final face-off with him, making us question what winning truly entails.
