In chapter 2 when the Cuban lobsters are plunked haphazardly onto the table and floor, the chef instantly proclaims, "10 are alive, 12 are dead". He makes this surprisingly precise calculation in under 3 seconds, without having had time to examine and count the crustaceans. Some of them were never within his line of vision. (In the shooting script, the lobster scene was longer and filled with comic relief and light-hearted dramatic irony, providing a sharp contrast to the forthcoming war horrors.)
