  • "ALL IS WELL", a message in the stars as Elvis is breathing his last, the gods themselves assuring him that his work is complete.

The contents of Elvis's bag: his late roommate's Purple Heart, the Lone Ranger's mask, and a picture of his daughter.
  • Kemosabe's last stand. He may be a frail and senile old man in his underwear but he still manages to go out fighting for what's right, and die with an unlikely dignity - with his boots on (literally) and his soul intact.
