"She only went on laughing and there was a click as the door was shut and her laughter was muted but her laughter was still there, her laughter was on the other side of the door.. and another door closed and her laughter was even more muted (but still there), and another lock clicked and a bolt slammed, and her laughter was going away, her laughter was outside and even after she had started the cruiser up... and driven away, he could still hear her. He thought he could still hear her laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing."
