Who is Jeff talking to on the phone?
In the scene after Jeff has his skin tag removed, he sits up out of bed to inspect the wound left behind and then makes a phone call in which he says;
"Hey, it's me... I dropped some stuff off at your parents' - they seem OK. So yeah, just wanted to let you know."
In terms of taking the words at face value, his words logically have to be directed at Mark... since he has just taken things to Mark's parents. However, the film seems otherwise unconfused about Mark being dead... so do we have to assume that Jeff is just pretending to talk to Mark as a coping mechanism of some sort?
Is Mark definitely dead? Am I missing something? I guess I just struggle to understand the inclusion of the phone call, since it doesn't otherwise seem to me to fit Jeff's state of mind to be pretending to talk to his dead mate on the phone... it seems out of place and rather unanswered for...
Any opinion or help on this one?
