Finally, he muttered:
“Daniel helped. The paramedics were actors. They thought it was for some kind of filmed event. And the doctor owed him a favor.”

An elderly woman across the aisle leaned forward.
“Excuse me, I don’t mean to interfere, but did this man pretend to die at his own wedding?”
Karl’s face darkened instantly.
“This is private.”
“It stopped being private when you started confessing on public transportation,” she replied sharply.
A younger guy behind us shrugged.
“Okay, but his parents sound insane.”
