To Kill A Mockingbird reference?

Post by mermaid symphony »

Dunno if this goes here, or in another thread like the hidden stuff/memos etc.

I was clearing out my closet and found my copy of To Kill A Mockingbird. I get bored really often, so I cracked it open.

Near the end of the book, Heck Tate says (in a nutshell), "He was drunk, tripped over a tree root and fell on the knife."

Doesn't Alex say something similar when talking to Wheeler after
PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER_SHOW PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER:
Bartlett's death and the fight with Sepulcher?
Was this intentional or just a coincedence?

I don't think he says exactly that, but it'll be interesting to see if someone else can make this out. :D

I don't remember that, but it would make sense, considering they were in a garden. Was it an option in one of the interactive cutscenes? Maybe that's how I missed it.
Another frequency perpetuated into context, trapped in the eternal paradox.

Yes. When you're trying to convince Wheeler, one of the options was 'It was an accident' or something along the lines of that. I haven't played the game in a while.

When you select "It was an accident", Alex said:

He was drunk. He must have tripped on a tree root and impaled himself or something. That's the only way to explain it.

Kind of a lame excuse for an accident, don't you think? "Oh he was drunk.. and.. tripped... and.... IMPALED himself. >3>"
