But in Serino's account, TM and Z exchange words in that first encounter. That's what has me puzzled.

According to Tracy Martin, the Sanford, Fla., detective recounted this sequence of events: Trayvon Martin walked up to Zimmerman's vehicle and asked why he was following him. Zimmerman denied following the youth and rolled up the car window. Minutes after Trayvon walked away, Zimmerman got out of his vehicle.

Then came the second encounter, according to Tracy Martin's recollection of the detective's account. Trayvon Martin appeared from behind a building in Zimmerman's gated community, approached him and demanded, "What's your problem, homie?" ...

The second paragraph of that tracks Z's testimony, as told by brother and father, but what about the first paragraph? That doesn't correspond with the time-frame of the recorded Z call with dispatch.

I can’t imagine that part would have been edited out of the recording, so I guess he must be saying that Zimmerman was back in his car after the call, then left the car again. But there was not a lot of time between the call and the fight - 2 1/2 minutes max - for a second encounter at the car to have occurred.
