Philosophy 101- Week #9- Period 4

[fates_jaye]

Jaye was looking bored when the class arrived, which was no different from any other week, really. She was, however, holding a DVD case in hand, seeing as how she'd just gotten it.

"Welcome back, and all that stuff, hope no one's still hungover." Jaye herself had managed to slay that little hangover dragon yesterday. "But in case anyone hasn't developed a Guinness-induced twitch at all things Irish yet, here's a movie."

And that's when she had to actually look down and read the case. No, she hadn't watched it first. Hangover dragon and all. "When a lottery winner dies of shock, his fellow townsfolk attempt to claim the money. Oh, okay, simple enough. So, enjoy that."

Watch the movie

When word reaches two elderly best friends that someone in their tiny Irish village has won the national lottery, they go to great lengths to find the winner so they can share the wealth. When they discover the "lucky" winner, Ned Devine, they find he has died of shock upon discovering his win. Not wanting the money to go to waste, the village enters a pact to pretend Ned is still alive by having another man pose as him, and then to divide the money between them.

Well, this was hardly the first time someone's sudden death resulted in other people becoming very wealthy.

Bruce didn't think that. That's just narrative. Bruce was just watching the movie while making plans for the week.

The movie was funny, but maybe not the best movie to watch the week after you found out there was some world in which you died in three years. Tara was a bit twitchy about anything death-related at the moment.

Rilla decided that this was something Glen St. Mary would totally try to do.
