#4 I agree with you're explanation, they don't call it short term memory for nothing. The white guy turning, the reason she didn't say anything was propably because she would be embarassed, what are you gonna say "I thought you were white?" that would go over real well LOL.

Lol, the last lady probably thought the guy was a chameleon or something.
He did turn different colors, after all.
