Sam: It's a refund, actually. There was a mistake.
Mrs. Buttle: Mistake?
Sam: Yes, they don't usually make mistakes, but, uh, well, I suppose we're all human…Actually, you know, my coming here is rather unorthodox, bringing you this check as any payments are normally made through central computer, but, uhm, well, as there were certain difficulties, we thought, well, rather than cause delay, uh, we'd let you have it now – you know, it being Christmas and all.
Mrs. Buttle: My husband's dead, isn't he?
Sam: Uhm, I do assure you, Mrs. Buttle, the Ministry is very scrupulous about following up and eradicating any error. But if you do have any complaints you wish to make, I'd be, well, only too happy to send you the appropriate forms.
Mrs. Buttle: What have you done with his body?…
Sam: Uhmm, I don't know anything about that, Mrs. Buttle. I'm really just delivering the check. So if, uhm, look, if you wouldn't mind just signing these two receipts, I'd be only too happy to, uh, to leave you in peace…
Mrs. Buttle: He hadn't done anything. He was good! What have you done with his body?
