Y'know, this was actually starting to get to Kevin a little bit! He took a whole lot of pride in his work and in his intelligence, and then along came this guy, telling him that he was wrong. That he hadn't done his due diligence.

Kevin took his due diligence very seriously.

"Oh, I know the bodies are collected," he chirped, his hand tightening a little bit around Cecil's arm. "Of course - I made sure to pay attention at the meetings. But Cecil...what would have happened to the corpse after if I had left it there? What purpose would it have served? Would it have been buried? Burned?"

A little chuckle.

"I don't know about you - but that sounds like what we would call waste where I come from."
