Last night, he’d waved at Sally as she came out the playhouse’s stage doors. He’d offered her a ride. Still amped for her aborted performance as Shana, the actor had expressed a dire craving for ice cream.

In a Dairy Queen parking lot, they spooned Blizzards while leaning against the warm hood of his car. Traffic zipped past on the nearby roadway.

“That was so weird,” she said. “Dan banged straight out the back exit.”

“Very weird,” Max said.

“Not out, really. More like through it.”

“He doesn’t strike me as emotionally stable.”

“Oh, he’s a freaking basket case,” she agreed. “I’ve just never seen it affect his work. He totally freaked out. Arthur’s death threw him for a loop.”

Max again thought about his father’s passing. “Trauma affects you in ways you don’t know until they come to the surface.”

“I’m sorry you didn’t get to meet him. You being such a huge fan. I was going to try to connect you two.”

He smiled. “I’ll catch up with him another time.”

“Anyway, we all have our issues,” Sally said. “My mom came tonight. I saw her on the way out.”

“I sat next to her. She gave me an earful about my chosen genre.”

“She’s pissed at me at the moment.”

“For the same reason?”

“Let’s just say I’m pissed at her too, and I’m not really speaking to her right now.” Sally cocked her head and regarded him. “You know, she said the oddest thing about you before I banged out the door myself.”

“Oh? What’s that?”

“That she thinks you’re dangerous.”

Max chuckled. “It sounds like she’s learning to appreciate my genre.”

“I kinda doubt that. So what did you want to talk to me about?”

“I’m hoping to get some advice,” he said. “An acting hypothetical.”

“Oh.” Her face transformed into steely determination. “Let me have it.”

He asked his questions. She answered.

Thus Max learned how to unlock the occult camera’s true artistic potential.
