Answer: A. Tom looks down and panics.
In the story "Contents of the Dead Man's Pocket" by Jack Finney, we encounter Tom. Tom is a man who is looking for a promotion at work. In order to get it, he has been working on some research. However, when the wind comes through the window, the paper where the research is written flies out the window. Tom steps onto the window ledge to retrieve it.
