(Man 1: Americans only care about you after you die.) "Soldiers get paid crap. No one cares if they go nuts and wind up homeless. If they get killed? Other live soldiers risk their lives to retrieve their body! Then: tricked-out funeral! Media hat-tip!" (Woman: Thank you, deceased corporal Alex, for your heroic service!) "Mudslide victims? No one paid their doctor if they got cancer. But the whole nation wants their rotting corpses pulled outta the muck. No expense spared to find the bloated carcasses of the Malaysian plane crash victims. When they were alive, the airlines soaked them for a $30 a bag." (Man 2: New data coming in from echo-star-6 satellite, which we've got in modified orbit for the search.) (Man 1: Kill me. I want love.) (Man 3: No. Then I'll get the death penalty.) (Man 1: Death benefit.)
