Now it’s getting worse, where’s the body? Will there be an official cause of death after an autopsy, or are we going to be treated to another bucket of sand being tossed off the cliff into the ocean?

Just where did you see that information about the last rites? I mean a priest wouldn’t lie to you...would he?

PS. Aren’t Last Rites administered just before the person dies? Not after they have been fished out of the ocean? It’s a little late then...I always thought the dearly departed had to be still breathing to take part.

Actually, the Last Rites can be administered up to an hour or so after clinical death. Nobody knows exactly at what moment the soul leaves the body. The priest should err on the side of giving the sacrament.
