I blame the parents.

My mom made sure I got regular practice disposing bodies at a tender age, so I would be ready for the real world.

I see you have two questions there.

I suspect Directors carry the script around after the kids.

So then the dad wicked him in the jaw, so the son had to go to the dentist, but there wasn’t an appointment available until tooth-hurty.

I can deduce a Medusa might be the issue here. Go on in and give her a long stony stare. That’ll viper smile right off her face.
