Now that was a sure fire way to grab my attention. "I'm sorry, where are my what?"
"Guillotine kits? You know, like what they used to execute people during the French Revolution? It's sort of shaped like..." and with that he began to roughly describe the shape and function of the guillotine.
"Yes, I know what the guillotine is, but I am sorry we don't carry that here."
"Well I was told you did!"
"Umm..well I can show you are science and model section where you can see the product we do have, but I don't have any guillotines."
"Well if you don't carry one, how should I go about making one?"
I was getting a bit nervous by this point. "I—don't really know that we have anything that big and sharp..."
"Oh I don't need anything with a blade sharp enough to cut, I just need it to look and act like a real one."
"Is this for a play?"
"Nope! I just want one."
It was at that point, I strongly began to suspect his last name was Addams.
