0 Fileobrother Posted September 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 (edited) Oh man, some of you are so close. I am thinking of something very specific. It doesn't fall under anything that anyone said yet though. Especially not Iron Lady's guess, that's not my cup o' tea. What's an untimely scene?

Not the answer to the riddle but you're thinking along the right lines for the hint I gave. @ Oppian: No, that doesn't really fit.
