i wondered about that as well. assumed the lights were probably off and he walks straight past the open room door. she was lucky. proper stuff of nightmares.Supporting DM all the way --
At the time she was awakened, she was unaware that a murderer had entered their house. Likely she wasn't aware of the Door Dash order, or XK's movements.
She had been drinking, had been sleeping, reasonable that she wasn't fully awake -- in fact, she wanted to get BACK to sleep --
All the things she (thought she) heard went through this filter, and nowhere was she imagining a prowler (until she heard a voice she didn't recognize), therefore, it was logical to ascribe the sounds she was hearing to the people she knew were there.
And when she came face to face with a masked intruder who was likely holding a knife that didn't even register correctly, it HAD to feel surreal, nightmarish -- especially since he didn't seem to notice her.
How absolutely mind bending.
SCARY AS HELL.

ETA although i would guess she just peeped through the crack of an open dor.
