Dude, stop overreacting, ask our question pal. No one is stopping you, so? Question? (don't post a whole fucking page!)

A object actually can be said to have many different wave functions. The "collapse" is just a collapse to a given value of some parameter. Ie, a wave function collapsed, s.t. I get an exact value of position . If a system can be described with basic quantum mechanics, then this is fine, and yes, all interactions will collapse some wave functions, and produce new ones. The collapse will occur, s.t. some parts of the interaction take actual values.

If the system cannot be described by basic quantum mechanics, then you need full quantum field theory. In this case, assume that collapse occurs at every possible chance (you are summing over all universes/possibilities). The original (single component wave functions will still have had to collapse though).

At the end of the movie, Batman takes the blame for Harvey Dent's few kills in order to maintain Dent's white knight image. But it could have been a lot easier to blame the kills on the Joker who already killed a lot of them. Thus saving Batman the trouble of being pursued by Gotham's police forces.
