Spoilers: the funeral


So many nonsensical things happen, I can't even list them all

The fake kid who died by shoving the *beep* [IMDB bleeped out the name of the drink, which just goes to show you how unadvertiseable a drink named that would be] vending machine - the fake funeral was weird as hell.

The company was going to TELEVISE a fake funeral? Anyone can google it in two seconds and see that it's fake. They actually went through with hiring actors and having a fake mom to put eye irritant on herself to make it look like she was crying to stage a funeral, but they didn't pay any people to come and pretend to be his friends? There were like 10 people at his funeral and Sneaky Pete and co. made up most of them! And Scat didn't think that was the least bit suspicious?

And even if he did feel responsible, why would he invite himself to the funeral? Why would he step up in front of a random dead kid's family to make a speech - not about how the death or the kid - but about HIMSELF and responsible marketing?!?!


They went through the effort to dress a mannequin, but they don't put a suit on it? WHY BOTHER DRESSING THE FREAKING MANNEQUIN. Why put anything in the coffin short of something that actually looked like a dead body in funeral attire... If you don't expect anyone to look in the coffin, you wouldn't put a mannequin in there. Did anyone proofread this scene at all???
