I suppose they figured it would legitimize the whole operation to include the real McCoy, so to speak, but then somebody has to decide who gets him. Justice didn't want any part of that and neither did we, so we brought in one of those outfits that run lotteries, because that's what it was, a lottery, but kind of a strange one, if you know what I mean. Strange in that the winner wasn't supposed to know if he won or not. He or she. It's like the firing squad, where nobody knows who has the live bullets.
Nobody is supposed to know who gets the real one.
I'm sure it's in the records somewhere, but that stuff's all sealed. That was part of the contract. It could probably be figured out by talking to the drivers who did the deliveries, or the drivers who picked up the remains, or even the families themselves. Unethical, too, if you ask me, since it would interfere with what the whole thing was about, which was Closure. That's why we were hired, to keep it secret, and that's what we did.
