The Man's shirt got soaked again on his way to his truck. The shirt looks dark blue when saturated with rain but light blue when it is dry. (00:02:53 - 00:03:51)

Suggested correction: You can see the majority of the cut is in the center of her throat. When her head was turned, her neck wasn't, so he didn't get much of the left side of her neck, but the bandage wraps around enough to cover the left side of her neck that did get cut.
