Rather than just slicing her head off immediately, he actually just walks up, says "Buenos dias", and casually uses his liquid metal skin to copy the clothing she's holding, all with a friendly smile on his face. All while said witness goes "what in the actual fuck is this thing". ''And the Rev-9 still lets her live.''
