* DevelopersForesight: On some of the maps, it's possible to position yourself in a spot where the Lunch Lady cannot physically get to you. If you're in one of these spots when she sees you, she will throw projectiles at you before moving on. If you keep drawing her aggro, and after several minutes of her throwing her cleavers at you, the Lunch Lady will then [[NoFairCheating deliver an instant kill attack]]. It even comes with a unique scream.
