A funhouse prop. A pocketbook bound in human skin. A brain in a mayonnaise jar.
In this episode: what happens to a body once nobody steps forward to claim it. An outlaw who died broke and unmourned, then spent sixty-five years as a carnival attraction before a TV crew found him hanging in a funhouse wall. Two Edinburgh men who realized dead bodies were worth money, and figured out it was faster to make their own supply than wait for someone to die.
Plus the woman displayed as a scientific curiosity for longer after her death than she lived, the revolutionary whose hands outlived the rest of him, and the philosopher who saw all of this coming and decided to beat everyone to it.
The dead don't get a vote.
Which means somebody else always decides for them.
