Situation #3 : Of Questions and 3-D Glasses
"Hey, can I ask you a question?"
Zack looked up from the movie summary he'd been reading to the teenager who had just asked the question.
"I will answer to my greatest ability, yes."
After raising an eyebrow at his odd wording, the stranger continued on with, "So I was looking at this horror movie," he said as he held up the newly released 'My Bloody Valentine in 3-D' for Zack to see, "and I was wondering whether you've seen it and if it's any good in your opinion and stuff."
"Ah, yes," Zack said as he remembered this film he and Hodgins had seen a little while ago in theatures, "I have partaken in the viewing of that particular movie."
"What'd you think 'bout it?" the young man asked in interest.
The genius youth turned away for a few seconds in thought before saying, "In actuality, that movie was a disappointment for me. When the villain uses his pick-ax or assorted weapon, blood does not come out in such a flashy, spraying way and in such initial large amounts. Blood in itself is much thicker then the fake substitute they used. In addition, when he cuts or de-limbs his victims, bone and organ placement is not fully correct or visually acceptable, making the movie even less realistic. Even with the addition of the 3-D glasses, it is nothing similar to real-life."
"H-How do you know all this?" the boy said in fear now as he took a step away from Zack.
Zack blinked down at him before saying, "I deal with murder on a frequent basis."
At seeing the youth's eyes further widen and for him to continue to shrink away, Zack flashed him a smile in an attempt to calm him before offering, "If you need further assistance, please do not hesitate in the least to ask."
Yet his smile and words it did the opposite of what the forensic anthropologist had wanted as she boy threw the movie in the air before screaming and running out of the movie store.
