What does the not-private part say?

"Dear Turner, this bag is to be opened

at the KFC restaurant...

...where we had our final meal as a family.

Please bring the ashes with you.

Also bring Jason and Zach. I love you.

I'm sorry I'm dead." Signed, "Henry."

- They're not even ashes. They're bones.

- Mom.

- Cremation?

- As far as I know. Except...

They're smashed-up bones.

They should tell you that.

If you want to stay,

you're gonna have to behave.

- Except what?

- He wants to be with Sky.

- "With Sky," what?

- Cremated with him.

- Sky isn't dead.

- Well, maybe he wanted you to kill the dog.

- He is old.

- Come on. We gotta go.

- Don't worry. We don't have to kill the dog.

- We're not gonna kill the dog.

Henry said he's gonna die today.

Sky?

Sky?

"Dear tribe:
First off, I would like

to welcome you all to my funeral.

I wish I was there with you.

Please begin by taking out the bag...

...that is inside the bag you were given."

Okay. Let's see.

"Inside this bag you will find: One,

a pair of Post-its, one pink, one blue.

Two, a map. Three, another bag.

The pink Post-it will tell you

exactly where to make...

...the first disposal of Sky's

and my remains.

The blue Post-it will detail the ritual

to take place there.

The map will direct you to the KFC

establishment where you are to dine."

- Oh, my God.

- "Open the next bag and so on...

...until there is nothing left of me.

I love you all. Henry."

It's pretty clear, right?

We shouldn't do this.

I spoke to the people at the cemetery...

...where Henry already has a plot,

next to your mother...

...and they said they would be willing to

intern Henry and Sky's remains in the plot.

Ring, ring, ring...

Zach. I need...

Yeah. Hello? No. Barney, look, I'm in the...

I can't talk to him right now. Hello, sir.

- Tell him you're in the middle of a funeral.

- Yeah. Tell him you're at a funeral at KFC.

- Which Post-it was the first one?

- The pink, I think.

It's top priority, and I'm going

to go see them. Zach, please.

- He wants us to start at my mother's grave.

- We aren't doing it.

Now, just give me one second.

I think it's important too, sir.

Can I, just, in two minutes...

Can I call you back? Turner.

- I'll take care of it.

- Where is he going?

Just wait here for me for a sec.

Zach, I'm serious.

I want you just to stay here

for two seconds, okay?

Zach, I'm not kidding.

I need you just to stay here.

Turner. We are not doing this.

I didn't come here to deal with you.

Well, now you have to!

Now, you can't take...

Let's just go back inside and figure out

something that works for everyone. Okay?

Tell Zach I'm glad I met him. You too.
