Might of missed it but can you explain...


When Leon's parents were in the car right before the accident, Pin was in the back seat and it looked like he sat up by himself. I was not sure if it was because of the sharp turn or something else. Was just wondering though...

He was also smiling really big. It was in the dad's mind, though. He was crazy like Leon.

After seeing the rest of the movie I wondered if maybe Leon sneaked into the back of the car and controlled Pin. But if that was the case, his mom would've heard the door open and close. It definitely makes sense that it was in the dad's mind.

You mean "might HAVE missed it"?!

That's what he should of said

That bit slightly confused me on watching it, too.

Though, as has been said in other posts, I think it was meant to imply that Leon's father also had the same sort of condition as Leon, in that he thought Pin was real. Though he didn't seem to suffer from it to the same extent as Leon. Maybe it started as a way to entertain the kids, and he began to take it more seriously over time.

I do wonder though, if this scene was added to the film to make it a bit more ambiguous as to whether Pin was real or not, at least early in the movie.
