Part of me wants to say 'But their eyes are fixed on their own
forks', but then I realise....THAT'S WHAT IT'S SUPPOSED TO LOOK LIKE!!
Then again, without having watched it immediately prior to writing
this, I'm sure both girls report seeing different bending patterns,
and at different times....are there perhaps TWO different offscreen
forks? Perhaps more clever editing has me bamboozled or my memory is
playing tricks on me again.
