Look carefully at the position in which the bracelet is held. Note that its curious shape from the simple circle to the tattered upright ends is very reminiscent of the symbol for bismuth. The element is known for a gray appearance with a pinkish tinge–remarkably similar to the bracelet itself. While the alchemical symbol is known to have been acknowledged by the ancients, its uses in alchemy have been lost. Monica’s possession of it hints at a connection to this ancient practice. It is strongly suspected that she is a remnant of a secret, continuing practice–a modern day member of an ancient, enduring order far predating anything so mundane and feeble as the puny C.I.A.

So, where should I begin? Ah yes, just a little minor detail, but the baby in the photograph is a male, just as future reference, but I will not hold it against you for it is hard to tell from the image. Anyway, moving on we get to the part where the three subjects are supposedly “hiding” something when the truth of the matter is that, although the smiles may seem to come off as so called fake, the reason for this may be due to the fact that we had all been up for countless hours in the delivery room waiting on the arrival of my nephew. Secondly, the presumed blood coming from the man is in fact a t-shirt belong to the man (so the assumption that it belongs to the man was actually correct!). The outrageous objection comes in when the man’s smile is represents pain and anguish. I just don’t even know where to begin with this one, but, so as not to rant and rave on, I will simply say that those feelings were the FARTHEST from the man’s mind. I can back this up by telling you all that the little baby boy in the image is the man’s newborn child. Not only is it his newborn, but it is first child. So if he was feeling anything the feelings would be more along the lines joy, happiness, excitement, and so on. As for the breaking of the antique desk, I do not know what to say except that I am pretty sure there are no antique desks in a hospital, never mind in the maternity ward and wait, where is the so called desk in the image? Hmm….

So, now that I have cleared up any mishaps or bad interpretations, I hope that you are able to see the image for what it really is: a mother and her two kids enjoying the arrival of the son’s first child, the mother’s first grandchild and the daughter’s first nephew. Now that’s what I call a mystery solved!
