V-2nd. "Sometimes a mousetrap is just a mousetrap? "

[Heikki Raudaskoski]

Maybe sometimes, but a set mousetrap also makes a "V", horizontally.
Another V-trap, so to say. When it goes off, it becomes a steeper V,
if this V catches something. If not, it becomes something of an "I".
A segment of a line, for instance.

P.S. Great hosting, Mark.

The play is actually The Murder of Gonzago, but Hamlet answers metaphorically, since "the play's the thing" in which he intends to "catch the conscience of the king."
