To boil it down, Schmidt points out that (1) the clots shown in the movie are nothing unusual (in fact, theyre normal); (2) theres no evidence presented that embalmers are finding more clots in the recently deceased; and (3) Richard Hirschman is a talented embalmer but an utterly incompetent scientist, given how easily hes taken in by confirmation bias, disinformation, and conspiracy theories.

If I were to play the game of taking a shot in the dark, pouring the liquor onto my face, and then taking a shot in the dark as to what the Crank Incident could be if it were related to the first two Crank films, itd be that there was a Weinstein-style cover up that stated this scene was a genuine case of rape on film.
