She twists herself around and is dangling for a moment, feet trying to find purchase, holding her body close to the rope with a momentary surge of adrenaline telling her this may be a bad idea.

Or as it ends up, once she thinks she's at the right level, she finds herself kicking against the window to no real effect. Not as planned. ]
