ShortSummary
  • Crim claims he does not remember murdering anyone. Coroner Dusty cannot bring himself to do an autopsy on Mayor Bowman. Marilyn Bowman is appointed a grief counselor to help her deal with her husband's death. The mayor's will is read in which he appoints his wife as interim mayor. A bored Death reflects on the reason he is stuck in Shuckton: several years ago a night of partying made him sleep too late the next morning and he missed collecting the soul of an aborted baby – allowing the baby to survive. At Bowman's wake Dusty steals the corpse. Death goes to Bowman's funeral where Bowman's adopted son, Rampop, communicates with Death telepathically. Ricky begins his investigation into Bowman's murder, but is hampered by his fear of leaving his house. Upon reviewing the funeral footage for suspects, Ricky notices Death for the first time, whose image comes to life on the screen and insults him, blowing out the TV. (en)
  • The mayor's corpse is found the next morning, standing on his lawn with his head stuffed into his mailbox. The town reacts to the news that Mayor Bowman has been murdered, and Ricky Jarvis reflects on the time he disappointed Bowman and the whole town, when he was the star player and Bowman the coach of the town hockey team, when he physically exhausted himself the night before the big game having sex with the rival team's head cheerleader. The police have no suspects, and coroner Dusty collects nearly everything in the house as evidence for his own use. Death sends pizzas to Ricky, who chokes but survives completely unaware of Death's presence. The police find small-time criminal Crim covered in blood, and he instantly becomes their prime suspect in the Mayor's murder. (en)
  • Marilyn Bowman begins her first day as Mayor, only to discover her husband was cheating on her with Heather Weather. The Prosecutor "Big City" arrives in town and insults everyone he encounters. Weather reporter Heather Weather spreads rumors that news reporter Corrinda Gablechuck is pregnant with the child of equipment operator Shaye, all while trying to seduce Shaye. Public Defense Attorney Sam Murray meets with Crim to discuss their case, and Crim is worried that he is more qualified than Sam. Corrinda and Heather almost get into a fight at the bar over Shaye until Marilyn and the police officers show up to arrest Heather as a suspect in the mayor's murder. Death continues his drunken antics and bullying of Ricky, though Ricky is oblivious to the person doing it. (en)
  • Heather is released from jail due to lack of evidence. Corrinda consults the abortion care provider, but learns that this pregnancy would be her last as she has no more eggs. Dusty becomes more intimate with Bowman's corpse. Ricky has Marnie go to the trial with a spy camera and notices that Marilyn is absent. The trial starts with each side's opening statements though Murray is late and unprepared. Crim fires Murray and represents himself only to announce that he remembers a drug induced vision where his spirit bear told him to kill the mayor. Murray manages to get this statement stricken from the record, and Crim re-hires him and makes them blood brothers. Heather presents herself as Corrinda's potential replacement during Corrinda's maternity leave. However, Heather is killed in the courtroom with Death and Rampop as the only witnesses. (en)
