Have you found the mistakes re Flack's injuries yet?
The author made mistakes regarding Flack's injuries? Really? Probably didn't do proper research on Flack's character.
I wrote to the author but haven't heard back - seeing as I pointed out (albeit nicely, I think! :lol
he did make this mistake I can't say as I blame him!! The way I read it he did think Flack's main (only?) injury was to his chest especially when he refers to Flack's heart being exposed but he also refers to Mac's intervention saving his life which was for his abdominal injury. It's possible that with his artery pulsating with Flack's heartbeat and the sight of his chest sutures in the post-op scene that the author mistakenly thought it was a chest injury.
Why didn't he ask us!! :lol:
I wear mine to sleep, but alas, so far it hasn't brought on any dreams of Flack having his man. Not yet, at least... :devil:
I'm surprised there were errors in Deluge about Flack's injury. Maybe the author worked off an old version of the script or something like that?

I've been wearing my shirt here a couple of times and was giggling at the idea that someone from the forum could recognize it... :lol: "Normal" folks don't really pay enough attention to it though but I'm just as happy to wear it!
As for "Deluge" it's been sitting in my suitcase. I bought it but haven't started reading it yet.

All I can think of is that he perhaps confused Flack's pulsating abdominal artery with a beating heart which combined with the chest sutures visible in the post op scene made him think it was a chest injury that Flack received, especially seeing as the author also refers to Mac saving his life which he did but by tying off the artery.
The doctor and Mac did refer to pieces of the cell phone being embedded in his chest which I think also added to the confusion - we definitely didn't see his heart though!!penguinpie

We're supposed to have seen Flack's heart? :is confused: The post-op scene showed the worst of the damage to be on his abdomen on the left. Mac also clearly was working lower down than his chest.
Some of the shrapnel could have hit him in the chest, but clearly the artery Mac tied off was in the abdomenal cavity. And graphic it was too!
We couldn't have seen Flack's heart, what with his ribs and sternum in the way, surely. Mind you, I've no idea if what Mac did would actually work in real life. A little poetic license is allowed, I guess.

... please tell me the author is not Stuart Kaminsky. If it is, I'll just laugh my head off. Thanks to his first CSI:NY book, I'll always remember him as Mr. I-Abuse-the-Word-Said-and-Even-Praised-Myself-In-My-Story-For-It!
Anyways, I'm on Team Flack-Got-Injured-In-the-Belly. :lol: What the heck is this about Flack's heart being exposed after the explosion?! If that had happened, I imagine his hospitalization time would have been much longer than 1 1/2 months!
So. Does anyone have the nerve to post a screencap of Flack's injuries?

And now, as you all can see, there is no damage in the heart area, it's all in the abdominal area, and mostly down. It hurts even to see...

Now that really needs to be on a t-shirt! :lol: :lol:
So I guess, if we get a shirtless-Flack scene (yes please, God, I've been good), and if the PTB remember that he was seriously injured not too long ago, will we see scars and where will they be, hmmm? Lord knows, they only have to refer to their own footage to get a clue.
Perhaps even more critical - we ask the questions that need to be asked - will they make the poor sod wax his chest?

Yup, it was Stuart Kaminsky!! :lol: He's supposed to be an award winning author at that!
He was maybe watching another show to the rest of us!I can't remember the exact quote - I'm not that bad :lol: but he does definitely infer Flack's chest was the site of his major injury and that his heart was exposed. I guess he got more than a little confused by the way Flack's abdominal artery was pulsating with his heartbeat. I guess if you weren't really paying attention and didn't maybe do much research
it would be an easy mistake to make!

Maybe he was going for creative license for recuperation from injuries? It's what I did in my fanfic in hopes of making some sort of sense of the time line for season 3, as chest wounds tend to heal faster than abdominal ones (because there is less risk of infection). Or maybe he is just an idiot and we all should be picked to write the next book!
