If it's my decision, Mulder can stay home...Does this mean we're going to see a Cameo of Mulder and Scully in the next update?

I think Gillian Anderson got better with age tbh. Her outing in American Gods. Oh god, I almost died. Love her.

The thing is, the "violent incident" resulted in BOTH lung wings collapsing (which is stated in game) among other injuries. We are talking here about major, lifethreatening traumata. It is far more likely the result of what happened when Summer went missing than the result of schoolyard fisticuffs, because some idiot looked the wrong way at Nami.

My God, this creatures would scare a hairdresser into suicide. MC hair is bad, but not THAT bad...
The actual quote from the flashback is "His lungs collapsed!" meaning his lung (singular) has collapsed ("His lung's collapsed!" not "His lungs have collapsed!"). He the MC also appears to have a bleeding laceration on right forearm. So...
1. car crash or similar incident? (unlikely since they're usually not described as a "violent incident")
2. assault or incident relating to Summer's disappearance?
3. assault during a fight relating to Nami at HS?
I'm keeping an open mind on this.
Even High School students are known to carry knives...

I might not be a native English speaker, but I learned that "lungs" is plural, meaning both lung wings collapsed. That sentence is spoken in an Emergency room, so contracted speech is not rare. But lungs without an apostroph is always s-plural in English.
I am a native English speaker, so I know when a sentence has a common grammatical/punctuation mistake. Contraction of the plural in speech would sound like "lungs've."

or
4. The spiders rose up against their oppressors.
As said, I understood it as both lung wings collapsed, on the grammar scale very misleading. "His lungs collapsed" can still mean plural and I think that is what Ocean meant. In German this contracted sentence would be rendered as "(Seine) Lungen (sind) kollabiert" which is completely clear since Lungen is the n-plural and in German there is even no ambiguity there with an s-plural due to different grammatical marking.
Singular would be "(Seine) Lunge (ist) kollabiert" and mean one lung wing collapsed.
I checked the Discord channel and no one has brought up this particular grammar ambiguity from the game. I posted a message there, asking for clarification on plural versus singular.
Ocean clarified on Discord that it means plural lungs, both lungs (somethings the small things matter
)
