* LastRequest: Two guys steal the body of a deceased individual from the local funeral home handling his services and take him to their favorite bar for a last drink, claiming the deceased told them after he died. When they arrive they find they are unable to pour the drink into the deceased like they said the deceased wanted. The funeral director arrives a few seconds later to confront the two men and they accuse the director of sewing the deceased's lips shut.
