Corrections and clarifications:

• The Skarsgård family is Swedish. Everybody knows that.
• The host, Devin Diazoni, implied that he enjoys Darren Aronofsky's The Fountain. This most likely is no longer true, if it ever was. (He hasn't seen it since high school.)

Episode Corrections:

• Byron Kennedy was killed in a helicopter crash, not a plane crash.
• O+ and A+ are the most common blood types. Max Rockatansky has "O - NEGATIVE HI OCTANE" and is a universal donor.

Do you have two black shirts? Two pair of black pants? One pair of black boots? Two pair of black socks? One black jacket? $300 of personal burial money?

Alright.
