Hi No, I'd say it means the opposite. To take something at face value means to accept it because of how it looks, not thinking about what might be hidden If your evil is eating cakes then, taking a cake at face value, that means that it looks delicious and you eat it. But if you thought there'd be no consequence, you'd be wrong - and there'll be a natural punishment Dave
