The excerpt is really all you need to know.

It's good that he's alive. I would have hated to be suspected of killing somebody who just simply took off.

But people on FR assured me that she had most certainly killed him.

Apparently he got better.

It’s similar to a witch turning someone into a newt.

there is no proof he is alive.

only hearsay from a person who might benefit from it

If I recall he was a private pilot regularly flying “cargo” from Central America to Florida.

Whoever he was hiding from may be very interested to learn that he is alive.

No surprise, as everyone on the show seems crazy.

I think she did, I don’t believe the report.
That said, if she was my wife I’d fake my death.

I kind of sort of remember watching that show during the pandemic lockdown. But the liquor stores were still open and I had nothing better to do, so.. what was I saying?

Being alive yet legally dead opens up a whole lot of possibilities, doesn’t it? Like paying no taxes. I wonder if he’s vaxxed?

Wow. How bad is she that a man would go to such lengths to get away from her?

Of the 30-odd main people in the series...there might be three of them that I consider sane. But I tend to agree...it’s just odd how you find this many nutcases all centered around one central hobby/passion.
