* TitleDrop: Coy's talking about his five senses, and his imminent execution, leads to him talking about how the senses fail at death (hearing goes last). Then he talks about reading once about speculation that humans actually have a hundred senses but only lose five. He wonders if maybe, at death, if he'll get access to the other 95 senses, or if that is the afterlife.

A bespectacled older man and self-described "hillbilly" named Coy (voiced by Creator/TimBlakeNelson) reminisces about his past, and specifically, how he used his five senses to experience the world. He talks about when he was a boy and did stuff like go to the video store and do the puzzles in ''Highlights'' magazine. Eventually, however, Coy reveals where he is now: on death row, about to be executed for killing a family of five when he set fire to an auto body shop.
