She tricks Framton into believing a falsehood that sends him into a panic.

Explanation:

The Open Window story begins with the arrival of Nuttel Framton, a hypochondriac, to the country, looking for someone to host him in their home, as he needed a more quieter place to be more relaxed and deal with his nerve issues. The plot develops when he arrives at the home of his new possible hosts: the Sappetons, and is received by Mrs. Sappleton's niece, Vera, a fifteen-year-old girl.

While Nuttle waits for Mrs. Sappleton to come out, Vera starts explaining Framton why the french window is open, she says that it remains open because Mrs. Sappleton believes that one day his husband, children and the dog's family (who had died in a tragic hunting accident years ago) would return home someday and re-enter the house. This is just a lie, of course, but the girl was so convincing that Nuttle believes it.

Once Mrs. Sappleton meets him, the hunting party appears walking toward the house. Mrs. Sappleton looks at them with excitement but the mischievous girl looks at them horrified as if she was looking at actual ghosts. Nuttle, horrified and scared, flees the house immediately.

Therefore, we can conclude that Vera advances the plot by tricking Framton into believing a falsehood that sends him into a panic.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
