:19:06
So he brought her home.
:19:08
And what now?
:19:11
Now he intended to restore her.
:19:14
And to that purpose...
:19:15
he began reading everything
he could about embalming...
:19:19
taxidermy.
:19:21
But it wasn't an easy job.
:19:23
His mother had been buried
for over a year now.
:19:26
There were lots
of repairs to make.
:19:29
He tried to patch her
with fish skin, with wax...
:19:32
with any substance which he
thought resembled human flesh.
:19:38
It wasn't until later...
:19:39
that the idea of using
real flesh occurred to him.
:19:45
Ironically enough, it was
his friend and neighbor...
:19:47
who accidentally gave him
the inspiration.
:19:50
God is great,
God is good...
:19:52
let us thank him
for this food.
:19:54
Amen.
:19:55
Oh, and please take good care of
old Miss Johnson.
:20:02
Pass the bread to Ezra,
will you, Brad?
:20:04
What's the matter
with old Miss Johnson?
:20:05
She kicked the bucket.
:20:06
She didn't kick the bucket.
She passed away.
:20:09
My Miss Johnson?
My old Sunday School teacher?
:20:11
- The very same one.
- I don't believe that.
:20:14
It's right here
in today's paper.
:20:16
Here it is.
The funeral was this afternoon.
:20:20
That lady taught me
all through Sunday School...
:20:22
and in the sixth grade.
:20:25
Taught Ez, too.
:20:27
Remember that, Ez,
back in sixth grade?
:20:29
Used to call her
"old flannel face."
:20:31
Remember that, Ez?
:20:33
No, sir.
:20:35
Yeah, that's her, all right.
:20:38
Here. Remember her, Ez?
:20:41
Oh, that's...
that's old Miss Johnson there.
:20:45
What's she doing
in the newspaper?
:20:46
Dang it, Ez,
I just told you she's dead.
:20:50
You mean they put her
in the paper...
:20:51
just 'cause she's dead?
:20:55
What's the matter with you, Ez?
That's her danged obituary.
:20:59
Her what?
