The slug is leading a double life.

S/He is an escape agent. 

S/He's in pain. S/He is a shape-shifter. S/He is pulled back and the camera pulls back to see them morph.

"I don't know where I am."

"You are OK - syntonic state."

S/He is an innovative artist. Their artworks are known for their realism, small scale, novel subject matter, and independent format. Their technique creates volumetric illusion through manipulating light and shadow. S/He contributes to the contemporary composite method of composition, and had originated an approach to the concept of the ideal form.

S/He wants to be seen so everybody knows they exist. 

In their absence, they talked politely and seriously, as if it was a scholarly phenomenon. No one at any time suggested that the visitor was traumatized and delusional. 

"I think s/he is surely exceptional, but I don’t believe s/he did it. I think she thinks she did."

"Yes, s/he thinks s/he did and so s/he did."

"S/He thinks they had the actual experience?"

"Yes. It gave her pleasure."

S/He falls into a coma. 

Being in a coma is like one long lucid dream.

S/He dreams about sun bursts and scenes from TV commercials.
