They do like a 360 of the person, like they show then in like their bras and panty of something. I don't really know.
Wendi: And they like, they just do this thing down the side, like,"We are going to take out all of her teeth and you know, crack her jaw in five places and reduce her nose and open up her eyes and take off the left limb and whatever you know, they just like go down this list. It's just unbelievable and then they actually do it.
Todd: Wow!
