It's true; whichever side of Mell's face is toward the viewer has two parallel vertical dreadlocks, while the side facing away has the single geniculate lock. I can envision her turning her head back and forth, causing the dreads to alternately rise and fall as the little cams in her cheeks operate.
The elevator enclosure is rectangular, while the elevator doors and shaft are cylindrical. Anyone should be able to see that; it's as clear as Dr. Narbon's glasses.

Note that the arrow-halves on the door panels still take up the same relative amount of them when they're open as they do when they're closed; they don't disappear back into the walls or wherever.

The doors aren't sliding back into anything. They're shrinking horizontally. They might be some sort of high-tech morphing metal, or possibly they distort space-time around them. In any case, I blame Dave.

After all, he can't defend himself; he's dead.

[i]Leon said: “Hey, where did that big defensive wall come from?”[/i] Isn’t the lab on a median strip? That’s not a wall, its the other lanes of the highway.

In the final frame Dr. Narbon's face in pretty expresive considering that 4/5's of it is glasses. The mouth does all the work and deos it well.

"big powerful ears" I didn't have a reason to say that but it WAS fun.

The elevator shaft is actually cylindrical. The doors just rotate back. It only *looks* rectangular in some views because of an optical illusion. You know the old drawing of the weird-looking bracket where three round rods turn into two square rods? Someone just found a practical application for that technology.

Helen's elevator is manufactured by the Optical Elation Corp. of Upper Sandusky, OH, Fine Purveyors Of Weird $#@! To The Mad Scientific Community Since 1927 -- "We Build For Those Who've Killed".

I suppose the elevator doors are made of…nylon?

"But why is Helen mucking about making nice with her mother for a timemachine? She has everything she needs: cloning technology and brainscans of Dave. She could even fiddle a few genes: take away thatnasty addiction propensity, reduce his future male pattern baldness,things like that.

She has the technology... she could make him... better, faster,stronger..."

Hey, where did that big defensive wall come from? That wasn't there four days ago.

Hey again: where and what are those elevator doors sliding into?
