I had taken a picture, everything seemed normal, but then the camera would not advance the film no matter how much I cursed it.  I resigned myself to not being able to pretend to be HCB on this trip, rewound the half-finished roll of Acros and put the Leica away in my suitcase. But I really wonder how this happens. I had the camera CLAd not too long ago, in 2020 or 2021, and it has been flawless until now.
